One of the most valuable parts of journaling is the organic creation of patterns that unlock your wisdom.
The patterns are created from linking notes together with the use of links and hashtags.

Understanding why unrelated notes share hashtags is the beginning of finding patterns. High-level patterns are often similar in many different circumstances.
Lessons learned in one area of life often apply in other areas.
