If I wanted to have journals like Leonardo da Vinci - I like his way of analysing/learning with drawing and writing and want to see if it works for me - how should I go about it? I don't know if he drew first or wrote first, and if he drew first how he remembered during the drawing the information he wanted to add to it, and if he wrote first how he managed to have enough space to draw as well 🤔

Was it just information or private thoughts as well? Iirc he had to do lists and maybe doodles too, which suggests it wasn't pure information, but I also read he had vague plans to publish so he wouldn't put in really private stuff I imagine?
