I’ve been very loosely using PARA for a while, and the two (small) factors that have had the biggest benefit for me are:

- Every “project”, no matter how small, gets its own folder. This means I’m no longer hunting for files (“Did I save that to my desktop? Is it in my email?”)

- Replicate and manually “sync” the folder structure between programs (in my case, OneNote for notes, OneDrive for files, and Microsoft Tasks for…tasks). This gives the freedom to use the best tool for the job, rather than trying to find one tool that does everything, but means you still have a consistent organization structure.

These both seem somewhat obvious in retrospect, but they’ve been very helpful for me.
