After having tried to be organised for decades, I gave in to my inner holistic self and gave up on (most) explicit organization and just became very good at searching/finding things.

I could theorize about how no taxonomy deals with multiple contexts or remains valid over time, how filing errors will always happen so you will need search anyway, how unstructured scales to seamless incorporate outside sources etc., but thruth be told big piles of unorganised stuff with keen finding skills more naturally allign with my nature. Ymmv, and that's just fine.
