Response:
Mostly it's all about the writing and staying fluid.
But, I, too, find benefit in the movement, the lining things up getting-ready-ritual. I'm sure you're jumping forth between writing and organizing by now.
Keep imagining,

Thanks again for all your help. I've printed your scene tracker 20 times, labeled, and laminated back to back (10 laminated sheets) so I can use dry eraser and reuse them from story to story. Watch all this organization throw me into a writer's block. Oh, please say it isn't so.
I've even gone as far as laminating my blank master GMC charts, storyboard, plotline, character, conflict, conflict comparison, pertinent backstory for character GMC, character arc and romantic conflict/connection worksheets so that I can use dry erase on them and reuse them.
Geez, talk about anal, but at least it feels like I'm becoming organized. lol

SCENE VERSUS SUMMARY
Thinking about something is cerebral and is generally written in summary
Feeling something is visceral and is generally written in scene.
Track your story. How much out of body or in the head time versus how much in the body, experience time does your story encompass?
Use the Scene Tracker Kit to deepen each and every scene you write.
