Refining Processes
I have finally taken some time to refine my personal Kanban and Zettelkasten processes.

Doing mind maps on #obsidian is ridiculously easy. Next stop, #zettelkasten!
@thomas_mathoi Das wäre eine Wette auf die Zukunft.
Solange das, was d'rinnen ist, mir nicht im Weg steht und mich irgendwie behindert, ist es egal, wie viel Unnötiges drinnen ist.
Die Unterscheidung, ob etwas in meinem #PKM nötig oder unnötig ist, passiert beim ersten Zugriff (retrieval) und nicht früher.
Insofern weiß man meistens nicht beim Ablegen, ob etwas in Zukunft von Nutzen sein wird oder nicht.
Wenn man dieser Logik folgen würde, würde sich jedes #Wissensmanagement erübrigen.
(Obsidian würde ich für alles, was länger als ein paar Monate gelten soll, ohnehin nie nutzen.)
Working on a new blog post about boosting knowledge recall with Personal Knowledge Management (PKM) systems. Any tips you'd like to share? #PKM #KnowledgeManagement #Zettelkasten
Siis kirjan lukeminen on yksi keskittymistä vaativa asia. Se, että kirja nostaa mieleen moneen asiaan liittyviä ajatuksia, on eri asia. Sehän kertoo, että pohtimillasi teemoilla on yhteyksiä, joita et ole aikaisemmin tiedostanut. Ja itselle tärkeisiin teemoihin liittyvistä ajatuksista tehdään muistiinpanot. Kirjan väitteet sinänsä ovat lähtökohtaisesti irrallisia eli vaikeita muistaa ja hyödyttömiä, koska ne eivät liity mihinkään itselle tärkeään.

I'm live now with my friends @bobdoto and @noboilerplate to discuss practical implementations and workflows for #zettelkasten on Obsidian. Join the chat and ask us your ZK questions! https://youtube.com/live/HzmFooRRtAw
Day 6, Starting out in a new domain with #zettelkasten:
On the Curious book:
The book feels more like a collection of (interesting) anecdotes then an in-depth study of curiosity. The book could have been written in one sentence:
curiosity = good, schools should do better (+ funny stories) (1/2)
Day 4, Starting out in a new domain with zettelkasten:
Read the first couple of chapters of Ian Leslie - "Curious: The Desire to Know and Why Your Future Depends on It. The book is ok, a little bit too hoi polloi, but since I didn't really get Berlyne I might be the polloi here...
It was much to warm for serious reading.
Also, spend some time re-reading How to read a book Pre-reading list by Adler, I love that book!

Day 3, Starting out in a new domain with #zettelkasten:
Almost done: [[Comparing eco and ahrens]] for the theory on starting out in a new domain. #research
For the curiosity #psychology project: **Start with Broad Mapping**
Begin by creating overview notes that capture the landscape of your new domain. Not traditional Zettelkasten atomic notes, or even Mocs, but rather temporary scaffolding notes that help understand the territory: (1/3)
Just stumbled upon this amazing tool called zk! It's a command-line assistant for maintaining a plain text Zettelkasten or personal wiki. Perfect for programmers and note-takers alike!
Check out the GitHub repo: https://github.com/zk-org/zk and this insightful video:https://youtu.be/UzhZb7e4l4Y Note-taking System ALL Programmers Should Consider.

Starting out in a domain, using the #zettelkasten method sounds like a match made in heaven. A proven system, and a blank slate. Surprisingly I couldn’t find much online. It somehow always is either “what is a ZK”, or how to apply it to a known domain. Nobody just starts from scratch. (?!?) … (1/2)
Bob Doto is the author of ‘A System for Writing’.
From reading to note-making to finished draft, his approach connects it all.
I watched his discussion with historian Dan Allosso and took notes so you don’t have to.

It's a basic, systematic approach.
1. Collect new concept terms
2. Find as much as you can about each
3. Extract details, and systematize
