    I have about 4,000 notes I imported into Notion from Evernote. I will be interested to see if I can start organizing them using this method. I'm concerned that Notion's global search does NOT search inside databases (at least I don't think it does), so either all notes go into the database so you can use the database search, or nothing. I'm also a little concerned that notes will get list, but the "Ready to Process" and the "Question" tags are pretty genius! I find that in researching Issue A, questions about currently irrelevant Issue B & C pop into my head. If these questions are not written down at that moment, they are "lost" until the right context comes up again.

    Great content as always Martin. Zettelkasten is really hard to grasp at first because it is so abstract and we are used to all kinds of structure. Your explanations and workflow examples really help clarify it. Also tech joke here, most Zettelkasten Notes are very SOLID (Every note should have a Single Responsibility (idea/topic), should be open for extension but closed for modification (linking to other notes, even though the closed part isn't really appropriate here.) And maybe the Interfaces can be the maps of content xD

    • @Martin_Adams
      @Martin_Adams  Před 2 lety +2

      Thank you! I appreciate your kind words. Also, as a techie, I love your SOLID take on it. Makes a lot of sense and is a great insight. Maybe somewhere at the core of it, the idea of a piece of knowledge that has utility in understanding isn’t so different from a piece of isolated software that utility and meaning within a larger context.

    I love this digital version of the Zettelkasten! What I'd love is for the Map of Content to be an automated process rather than something I have to manually add. Wonder if tags would work.. 🤔

    • @master_from_gallifrey
      @master_from_gallifrey Před rokem +5

      You can filter by specific tag and if you've tagged everything properly you will end up with list of all the notes for specific topic. Or even further filter by tag + filter by note type (permanent notes) will give shorter list. ✌️😌

    Hey Martin! Amar here from India
    Excellent Video on building zettelkasten in Notion. I am very much interested in understanding the details of how to import information from a book/ article and converting into information in a systematic manner. Also, the book "How to take smart notes" is mainly influenced by zettelkasten but not really the original zettelkasten. Do check Niklas Luhmann's note "Communicating with slip boxes" for a far deeper understanding of the same. Kudos to you again!

    • @Martin_Adams
      @Martin_Adams  Před 4 měsíci

      Thank you. Great suggestion. In my own book Atomic Note-Taking I took a more practical and goal driven approach with teaching the Zettelkasten, and there is a lot of focus on how to ask questions and generate new insights from your notes.

    • @Martin_Adams
      @Martin_Adams  Před 2 lety +3

      Thank you! I used QuickTime on the Mac to record. I first recorded my screen by dragging out a 1920x1080 area, and off to the side was a separate movie recording of the webcam. Both merged in together using Premiere. My video has a green screen which I edited out. Only downside, QuickTime stopped the video after about 10 minutes, so you’ll see my fade out and back in at some point of the video 😂

      Thanks Andrew, I use that for other videos but you can’t record the webcam and desktop as separate files. This meant I couldn’t zoom in the screen without zooming me in the edit. But it’s a great suggestion and my favourite way to record!

    Can this method keep track of the parent and child zettels like Luhmen's? Can you draw any graphs with links? How can you view the connections in a higher level?

    • @Martin_Adams
      @Martin_Adams  Před 2 lety

      This might be where you hit some of the limits in Notion. You can keep track of parent/child via relation props, but there’s no simple way to visualise that. That’s where apps like Obsidian shine with their graph view.

    • @Martin_Adams
      @Martin_Adams  Před 2 lety +8

      The selfish answer is, if I didn’t, nobody would discover my app. The second part to the answer is that I solve sharing back knowledge and if I can help someone use any app and improve, I take that as a win. Both the app and the channel are components of my long term goal of helping a new generation of people find happiness and do amazing things through knowledge and mindset.

  • @tracywilliams7929
    @tracywilliams7929 Před 9 měsíci +3

    This seemed incoherent to me. The presentation would have been more focused had there been some end in mind. Luhman didn't take notes just to occupy time. He had a dissertation in mind. If this demonstration had some goal such as a blog post then everything would have hung together better. Otherwise each step just seemed pointless. I guess what is missing is the "why?" Why this note-taking method better? What is to be gained? Why does it work so well? No one, including Luhman, has explained it well.

    • @Martin_Adams
      @Martin_Adams  Před 9 měsíci

      Thank you for the great feedback. I'm about to launch a book on the Zettelkasten method which I think answers the 'why' question. It doesn't go into the various ways to use different software packages, but should make the goals very clear, which as you say is not clear in this video.
