I use journaling and daily notes in particular as the entry point of all my notes and information I collect. Just going through the daily notes I should find my way to the rest of the knowledge I've collected. I've described there in [1] and created a small visualization [2].
Each day, I scribble ideas and take notes about my discoveries as part of my daily note. It's just an outline at that point (most of the time).
At the end of each week, during my weekly review, I extract the content of my daily notes into separate notes, keeping a link there to respect my traceability principle.
When I extract the content, I use the Zettelkasten method and split content between literature notes and permanent notes. I wrote about this method in [3] and described my own organization in [4].
