zettelkasten

The Zettelkasten method is a method for note-taking and resource management. It is what I’m trying to do with all these org-roam files, but I feel like I’m failing!

Notes in Zettelkasten should be:

atomic : notes should pertain to one specific topic

connected : there should be clear lines between related notes

I need to start using org-roam more for personal notes as well as knowledge notes.

Ways to improve use of Zettelkasten with Roam

• Capture fleeting notes (optional)
• Connect literature notes (notes on books, articles, etc.) with ideas and reflections
• Create reflection, “argument”, notes. Use the connection between notes to generate new ideas (see “permanent notes”)
• Note to self: you’re already doing this! Notes like “Marx” etc. are permanent notes! You just need to be willing to actually fill them out and notice when they interest you! :)
