Stop Taking Regular Notes Use a Zettelkasten Instead

Here’s how a Zettelkasten works:

• Write each idea you come across on a card
• Link idea cards to other relevant idea cards (idea -> idea link)
• Sort cards into broader topic boxes (idea -> topic link)

Literature notes

• Add useful docs (papers, books) as a literature note
• Metadata includes: literaturenote tag, source, author
• Summarise content, each key idea as a simple sentence
• Elaborate on each key idea with some bullet points
  

Permanent notes

• 写 Permanent notes 的两条标准
  • Would I explore this further?
  • Or can I connect this to other ideas?
• Permanent notes 的 metadata
  • permanentnote tag
  • topic tags
  • Source，literature note link
  • relevant permanent notes and short explanation of how it is relevant
  • Add summary in prose
    

Topics

• This comes free if you’ve been adding topic tags
• You can now jump into topics via tags and navigate via links of relevant permanent notes
