I've always thought it was a waste of my effort to write down everything the speaker said, since recording and transcripts of GC are available within the week. If I write down something the speaker actually said, I usually try to make sure it is something that <i>really</i> struck me, so I can remember to revisit it later when I study the talks. Otherwise, I try to write down the things the Spirit says to me (that won't be in any transcript on lds.org!) and what I am going to DO because of what I heard. I have a little coding system, too - I put stars next to inspiration I receive, and arrows next to the action items. Then at the end of General Conference I type them up and separate them into two lists - the things I heard, and the things I am going to do. I also try to work out goals/habits to develop from the things I felt inspired to go and do and I work on those between Conferences.<br /><br />I wrote more about note taking <a href="http://delightinscripture.blogspot.com/2012/03/conference-101note-taking-and.html" rel="nofollow">here: General Conference 101 - note taking and conference</a>.Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667724269493668949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74864394654073513.post-6256259019955053122013-04-01T11:08:47.980-06:002013-04-01T11:08:47.980-06:00You must have a little window into my head.

...You must have a little window into my head. Wow. <br />Thanks so much for your thoughts. I also appreciated the comments.

If we all did this consistently, maybe Heavenly Father wouldn't need to be so repetitive when teaching us! <br /><br />And I also loved Carin's suggestion about how to take notes during General Conference and scripture study. I am in Young Women right now, so we are studying the new Come Follow Me study and tonight for the first time in my study journal I wrote I FEEL... and THE HOLY GHOST IS TELLING ME...

One year, I had a newborn and just couldn't take copious notes. I was very frustrated. But I (after a session or two) decided to write down the things I felt instead of the things I heard. I wrote thoughts and impressions...things I was going to do because of what I heard. That was a major turning point in my scripture study and conference notes. It is good to get information and to process it and to grow in that area. But I think it is better to write down the inspirations you have and then you have a list of the things the Lord wants you to do/change/be. It has been a much more effective tool in helping me to become who the Lord wants me to be than all of the stuff I was trying to remember so I would have knowledge. Interesting thought, huh?Carinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04925080590220456108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74864394654073513.post-89791664638007179512013-03-30T16:48:55.773-06:002013-03-30T16:48:55.773-06:00I think it is easy to get stuck in input mode!
