Thanks!

Thank you! Glad it resonated with you. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Thank you.

Thanks!

That's awesome - thank you for the kind comments - and good luck!

Thank you for taking the time to comment - I know what you mean about being fatigued by digital tools - they are still part of my workflow but the analogue method is much more effective for me. Good luck!

Hey thanks for the heads up - not aware of Scott's work but will be checking it out now! Thanks for taking the time to comment and thank you for subscribing!

Thank you!

Thank you

It is indeed! Lovely place. Thanks for commenting.

Much appreciated and thanks for commenting. It will take me a while but getting back into the swing of it. Always makes it easier when people leave appreciative nice comments like this one - thanks!

Hi - thanks for taking the time to comment and this clearly needs to be something I should look into. I assumed (wrongly) that Amazon would auto switch the links to the region the visitors are coming from. It clearly doesn't :) These pads are ace indeed. I get through hundreds of them. To be honest, I find that almost all legal pads are broadly similar, certainly here in the UK. The reason for these is because they can be bought in bulk for a good price. I'll look into how to do international links. Thanks for the comment!

Hi - glad it resonated and is what you're doing. I've found it useful and like you said - no bluelight blasting at me. My A3 notes are being shared through my newsletter and IG and they are rubbish (artistically) but they are helpful in helping me remember - like you said - it doesn't have to be perfect. Thank you for taking the time to comment and watch the video - much appreciated.

@fuchrrr_7549 I've been mulling over this same project for almost a year now! I'd love to hear all about the specific sections and essential pages you've included in your journal. Please share!

Hey - made my day reading this. It's certainly tough growing an audience and thank you for your kind words. Much appreciated.

Hi Christine - thanks for the comment. Day One is very good - I used it for a while but switched back to analogue and bought a tiny thermal printer so I could stick photos into my journal. It sounds like a good idea having separate books for various activities and ideas. Let me know how you get on and thank you for your kind words. Rob

Hi - thanks for the comment. All I can do is make sense of the information and world I occupy - maybe it is a little self indulgent but it is a *personal* knowledge management. There's simply too much information, data and knowledge out there for me to try and learn, so this video shares how I go about capturing what is personal to me. Other people are making sense of bigger data sets with computing power (Wolfram being one I keep an eye on). The more I do learn the more I do wonder how much of that vast world you talk about I am actually aware of - not much, but enough to keep my simple mind happy :) Thanks for commenting.

Thank you Sylvia! Indeed - the act of writing down does help - I tend to doodle more now :) Hope all is good with you.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you

Thank you!

Thank you

Thank you - glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting

Thanks! I do plan on doing a video on how it actually works at some point - the associated blog post has ideas on how to use it. All of the tools mentioned are free. And if you don't have time to figure it out it will be hard to make it work - learning does require investment in time, even if it's a few minutes a day - plenty of videos and blogs on how to use web clippers also - but thanks for the nudge to create a video about it. Rob

@@CreativeSoulProjects I appreciate the reply. I didn't mean to sound harsh. I seriously never learned about how to organize things so I pretty much just wing it. From my documents on my computer, to my browser bookmarks, to my possessions at home. The problem with investments is that most of them do not pay off. I don't even know what a "web clipper" is and I've been in tech and on the Internet since the 80s. I generally like the simple tools ... like vim for example. That I can figure out. Same with a lot of Apple functions like tags, or spotlight. I don't know enough to really make confident investments in this area, but I do realize the usefulness of it.

Hey - no doubt VIM could work out to be a tool of choice. I know plenty of people using basic text editors and tools like VIM to manage all of their work and learning. Web Clippers are simple browser add-ons that grab the contents on the website and store it to the tool -Evernote has one, as does Nimbus notes. It can capture the full page, or selected text, or simplified versions etc. It then gets captured in that tool of choice. You can then curate it in the tool (decide if it's useful still, tag it, move it, delete it etc), crunch it (take learnings from it into text files, VIM, notebooks - whatever resonates with you) and, in my model, contribute it (put it into action, share it with your colleagues or friends, or on social). Notational Velocity is a popular text based tool, simple notes also uses text files on your machine but I prefer tools like Nimbus notes as it allows for more flexibility and access anywhere via the web. Hope this helps - I'll maybe do a video on how I actually use it. Thanks Rob

@@CreativeSoulProjects Here is what I was thinking would be a helpful invention, and it doesn't even necessarily have to be software, though software could help. Say I have bills from a company coming in my email. So I drop them on my desktop. After a while I get a lot of them on my desktop, so I create a directory to put them in, and maybe subdirectories by year, or prefixing the file names with their date. So, that is obvious. But say, the Ukraine war comes along, or global warming is something I get interested in. I save documents or links to information on these things, and so end up creating more directories on my desktop. What I am thinking of is a natural, organic way to arrange and organize files, or bookmarks, or even keep the directories in sync with my bookmarks, so for every bookmark folder I would have, I have a directory where downloads or documents can be stored and retrieved. But the problem is, what are the rules for creating and then pushing down directories, putting like information like People, Interests, Companies, Finances, History, Images, etc in order and evolving that order over time in a logical war. After all, computer disk directories and file systems are pretty powerful databases in their own right.

Hi George, you are SO right indeed. Moving things around, upgrading desks etc is good for the soul. I used to do this a lot as a kid - move my room around, and it's a habit that has stuck with me - and yes, it's cathartic. Your lamp sounds amazing - just looked up some designs and they look amazing. Thanks again for watching the video and leaving a comment - good luck with your new home office re-move. :) Thanks Rob

Thank you! I'm very please with it :)

Thanks Jakub - much appreciated. That desk is awesome indeed and very cool with a light shining underneath it also! Hope you are well. Rob

Noted - thanks for the feedback Simon - I shall work on pronouncing things in my non-Northern accent :) My kids have a weird blend of North meets South. I shall endevour to meet a new high-bar you have set for me in the next video :) Hope you are well Simon - been ages!

Hi - thanks for letting me know - had a database issue on the site which rendered many pages broken! Have updated this one and working on the others! Thanks

@@CreativeSoulProjects great! glad to see that the formatting's been cleaned up!

Ambitious :)

Thank you for your comment - and yes - never stop learning! :)

Thanks for the summary - helpful for other viewers. Appreciated.

Ha - indeed! :)

You are welcome - thank you for watching. Much appreciated. Rob

Hi - thank you so much for the kind words and glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for commenting.

Ah thank you - it means a lot to get feedback like this - thank you! And yes, I need to do some better promotion of the channel :) Thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice comment - appreciated. Thanks Rob

Absolutely - extreme ownership for sure. The problem is most leaders and managers have absolutely no idea how to improve the system that people work in, hence they struggle to change the workplace to make it better for everyone.

Hi, Thanks for taking the time to comment. 1. what is the difference between website and knowledge management? A website is just that - a site on the web that stores information etc. Knowledge management is about how you as an individual garner knowledge from information, experience, observations, learning etc. I often say that knowledge is information in action. So, gathering information is not the important part, it's putting that information into action in your life that build knowledge. 2. What is the importance of knowledge management in the website? I'm not sure I understand this question. A website has information on it, you could use a web app / site like Google Keep or Evernote to store that information. Knowledge is about putting it into action and learning. And reflections of this journey could also be stored in a website. Or in a notebook with pen and paper :) 3. How can I implement knowledge management for different website or Web pages? If you have plenty of websites that contain information you could capture the whole site using tools like Evernote. Or you could extract the relevant pieces into the system you choose. I use digital tools to collect information because i can capture meta data such as date, time, web address, author etc for proper referencing. I can also sort in a digital tool using tags etc. But this is where you need to build your own system. What I share in this video is my system, but it may not work for you. You could even use a pen and paper to build your knowledge management system. Some people, like Ryan Holiday and Tim Ferris seem to use an analogue index card system. There are many ways to manage it. 4. Do you have any written assessment on the topic? Here are some links to further topics related to this: cultivatedmanagement.com/personal-knowledge-management-system/ cultivatedmanagement.com/twolearningstyles/ cultivatedmanagement.com/commonplace/ cultivatedmanagement.com/notetaking/ Thanks Rob

Thank you! It was so cold but I needed to control the camera still - good style :)

Thank you Dina - Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you! Yep - purpose, clarity over your work, roles, career growth, incentives, rules, all part of the system of work that Leaders ultimately have control over - yet many people work in confusion with no clear purpose, autonomy etc. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Rob

Now that sounds like a great series of videos - not sure how useful they would be for others :)

@@CreativeSoulProjects well yeah but like the title says, it's a PERSONAL knowledge management system, id probably just upload it to a dummy account lol

Last thing I want to do is annoy you but seems like I may have added some clarity for some of the stuff you already do :) Thanks for the comments.

Ha - it is a good beat - and sorry, cannot remember which track it was. It was from Epidemic Sound and you've given me an idea for future videos - to list the tracks as a number of people ask me what the tune is :)

Indeed - it will happen :) Thanks for commenting.

Awesome - thanks Piotr

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. A masters in knowledge management - how cool is that? I bet there is so much I could learn from you with this. I've done nothing theoretical at all, merely mashed around what seems to be working. Thanks for taking the time to watch the video and leave a comment.

What do you think of Sherlock Holmes' 'Mind Palace' system from the UK series 'Sherlock' just wondering your thoughts as I imagine that studying this you might have came across it?

Thanks - keep meaning to add time markers :)

Hey - thanks for the comments - hope it helps with your goals and plans.

@@CreativeSoulProjects Yeah thanks
