I am very good at writing down notes, especially in meetings... I am not so great at going back to those notes. I also have an issue with jumping around to different notebooks.

That’s a super common pattern: capture is easy, retrieval isn’t, and fragmentation makes it worse.
Two small things that often help without changing your whole setup:
Keep a single “Meeting Inbox” note/page where all meetings land first (even if messy), and only promote items out when they turn into actions.
Add a 2-minute “end of meeting” ritual: write 1 decision, 1 next step, 1 owner/date at the top of the note.
Curious: what’s the main reason you don’t go back—time, forgetting the note exists, or the notes don’t feel actionable when you do open them?
