Keeping track of notes & learnings

I've been working in PE / investing for 5+ years and while I've benefitted from the reps and from the cumulative learnings (both from working prior deals and tracking industry developments), I know I have plenty of room to optimize this process. I'm curious how you all go about organizing your learnings from what you've worked so that you're better able to leverage those learnings going forward. Kind of a strange question but curious to hear your thoughts.
