📚 知識の整理と体系化

ビデオでは、人生は学びの旅であり、道を変更し、これまでの行動を変える機会があると述べています。過去数週間で、ビデオではなく自分のシステムにもっと書き込んでおり、異なることに気づきました。今日のビデオは、Zettelkastenの生材料とそのタグ付けプロセス、構造についてです。前回のビデオでは、原則について見ましたが、今回はシンプルな分類について取り上げます。分類は、コンテキストタグ付けだけではなく、データベース内の未完成の生材料を整理し、より良いものにするためのボトムアップ開発プロセスです。また、知識の庭に成長させるための適切な足場を築くことも重要です。自分自身に問いかけているのは、デジタルで心を整理する方法と、適切な場所に物を置くための足場を構築する方法です。他の人々の方法を見て、自分に合ったものを模索し、一つのサイズが全てに合うとは考えていないこと、多くの異なる方法があることを示しています。

05:00

🏷️ タグ付けと段階的な進歩の促進

ビデオでは、コンテキストタグ付け、段階的な進歩の促進、そして抽象度のレベルや出現を通じて、これらの方法の共通点について説明しています。タグ付けは、後で関連するノートを再び掘り起こすための方法であり、タグは文脈、_subject_、またはキーワードによって行われます。また、ビデオでは、考え方をスタックとして扱い、アイデアを徐々に発展させていく方法についても触れています。これは、小さなアイデアから成長したアイデアへの移動を意味します。また、抽象度のレベルや出現は、非常に興味深いトピックであり、まだ開発中ですが、柔軟性を保ちながら行うことが重要です。実際には、コンテキスト、_subject_、キーワードタグ付けに焦点を当てており、Sanké Iren氏の「スマートノートの取り方」からのアドバイスも紹介しています。キーワードは慎重に選ばれ、sparinglyに割り当てられ、あなたが取り組んでいるトピックや興味を持つトピックに焦点を当てて割り当てられる必要があります。

10:00

🃏 抽象度と出現レベルの管理

ビデオでは、カードのデッキを用いたアナロジーを通じて、データベース内のノートをどのように集約して、それ単体よりも大きなプロパティを与えるかについて説明しています。カードの組み合わせは、カードの同じスートの数値的シーケンス、同じランクのカードのセット、または同じスートの5枚のカードなど、さまざまな方法でグループ化できます。重要なのは、柔軟性があることです。つまり、カードはこれらの異なるグループに何度も参加でき、適切なリソースを引き出し、それらを再編成することで繰り返し使用できます。Zettelkastenメソッドは、ノートの1つのレベルの抽象度であり、ノート同士を関連付けることに焦点が当てられています。しかし、より多くのことを行うことができます。Nick Marlow氏の「Linking Your Thinking」からMOCs(マインドのマップ)の概念を取り入れ、コンテンツマップとしてノートをグループ化する方法についても触れています。これは、基本単位がノートから、それらをリンクしたZettelcasterノード、コンテンツマップ、さらには異なる構造に集約する別のレベルに進化するプロセスを示しています。

15:00

🔍 他のフレームワークでのアイデアの足場

ビデオでは、Linking Your Thinkingの方法論、LumenのZettels、Robert Persigのメソッド論、Eisenhowerマトリックス、GTD(Getting Things Done)など、他のフレームワークでのアイデアの足場について見ていきます。これらのフレームワークは、ノートを整理し、プロセスを通じて発展させるための異なるアプローチを提供しています。Linking Your Thinkingでは、構造が得られること、ノートがめちゃくちゃになるときに精神的な絞り込みポイントや苦難ポイントに達し、そこで構造を定義し始めることが奨励されています。Lumenの方法では、インデックスカードを使い、異なるアイデアをリンクさせることで、抽象度を高めることを示しています。Robert Persigは、彼自身のインデックスカードシステムを使って、心の混沌を管理し、新しいカード、プログラム、crits、ジャンク、そしてtoughというカテゴリにカードを分類しました。Eisenhowerマトリックスは、緊急性と重要性の2x2マトリックスを使用して、優先順位を付ける方法を示しています。GTDは、inbox、ToDo、Doing、Doneというプロセスを通じてタスクを管理する方法を示しています。

20:03

🔗 他のリソースと今後の予定

ビデオでは、Linking Your ThinkingのビデオやJamie Mills氏の「Rhombus Tangled」コースなど、このトピックに関するさらなるリソースを紹介しています。また、将来のビデオでより多くの価値を追加できると感じるため、より多くの時間を書き込みに費やす予定についても触れています。最後に、視聴者のサポートに感謝し、フィードバックとコメントを楽しんでおり、今後も良いビデオを制作し続ける予定だと述べています。

Transcripts

play00:00

luckily life is a learning journey and

play00:02

we have the opportunity to

play00:03

change our course and and change the

play00:06

things that we've been doing

play00:07

over the last few weeks i've been

play00:08

actually writing a little bit more in my

play00:10

system

play00:10

rather than making videos about it and

play00:13

you know just realizing

play00:14

different things and and noticing

play00:16

different opportunities

play00:17

so that's why we get to today with a

play00:19

different title from what the previous

play00:21

video

play00:22

suggested it would be but this video is

play00:24

all about working with the raw materials

play00:26

in your zettel casten and beyond

play00:28

so tagging process and structure so

play00:31

what is our point of departure in my

play00:33

last video i looked at the design

play00:34

principles those few things were just

play00:36

atomicity of notes

play00:38

clear relationship between notes and a

play00:40

separation of inputs and outputs

play00:42

there was a little bit more in each of

play00:44

those things and we went offline

play00:45

tangents as

play00:46

normal and the final one was simple

play00:49

categorization of notes

play00:51

that is what i wanted to get into today

play00:53

but it's

play00:54

a lot broader than what i just suggested

play00:56

in terms of

play00:58

areas books and chapters because that

play00:59

was looking at

play01:01

just context tagging but categorization

play01:03

is broader than just

play01:04

context tagging it's also the process of

play01:06

bottom-up development because you're

play01:08

working with

play01:09

raw materials in your database and

play01:11

things that are not well

play01:12

formed yet and you're taking them from a

play01:14

state of not being good

play01:16

to hopefully being a lot better and

play01:17

usable in different contexts another

play01:19

point is creating the appropriate

play01:21

scaffolding

play01:22

so that your knowledge garden can grow

play01:24

so that's adding a little bit of

play01:25

structure you know if

play01:26

i envisage a creeper growing up the wall

play01:28

if you don't have

play01:30

anything for it to grow on it won't grow

play01:31

very tall that's the way that i'm

play01:33

thinking about categorization and the

play01:34

questions that i'm asking myself are

play01:36

how can i manage my workspaces so that i

play01:39

can sort out my mind digitally

play01:41

because it's chaos in there and then how

play01:43

can i build the scaffolding that will

play01:45

allow me to put things

play01:46

in the right place what i've gone away

play01:48

and done and you know

play01:50

what's a continued process essentially

play01:52

is looking at other people's

play01:53

methods and trying to you know figure

play01:56

out

play01:56

what works for me and i think that's the

play01:58

hard work it's not like a

play02:00

one-size-fits-all and you know because

play02:02

these systems are so flexible

play02:04

you really need to figure out how you

play02:06

want to make it work for you i'm also

play02:08

hopefully not so arrogant to assume that

play02:10

this is the right answer there's so many

play02:12

different ways of doing these things

play02:13

and i'm hopefully just able to plant a

play02:15

few suggestions

play02:17

of what you can do in your base using

play02:19

your

play02:20

structure that's already there and maybe

play02:23

to apply some of these principles and

play02:25

make it a little bit smoother

play02:26

maybe we'll look at some of the methods

play02:28

a little bit later and then you know

play02:30

see where some of those source materials

play02:32

might be

play02:33

so what are the commonalities in these

play02:35

methods okay the first one is

play02:37

context tagging obviously it's just a

play02:39

way to resurface your relevant notes

play02:41

later

play02:42

tagging either by context subject or

play02:45

keyword

play02:46

and i'm gonna get into all of these a

play02:47

little bit later so let me just

play02:49

cruise on through and then the second

play02:51

one is a method of facilitating

play02:53

incremental progress so it's moving

play02:56

something slowly along

play02:57

and taking it from as i said this little

play02:59

baby idea to a grown-up idea

play03:03

and the way that i think about that is

play03:05

thinking in stacks

play03:06

so you know the traditional one is to do

play03:08

doing done

play03:10

but also looking at virtual workshops

play03:12

like different areas where i'm

play03:13

developing ideas

play03:15

and then the third one is levels of

play03:17

abstraction or emergence

play03:19

so this is a topic in its own right i'll

play03:21

just name it exactly that because it's

play03:24

very cool probably the least well

play03:25

developed in my mind but

play03:27

we'll look at it anyways so it's also

play03:29

important

play03:30

to do this whilst keeping it flexible

play03:32

you know we're still trying to do it

play03:33

bottom up

play03:34

and not coming with a heavy hand of

play03:36

structure and folders

play03:37

and you know making our process not very

play03:41

pleasant

play03:42

so what does this look like in practice

play03:45

okay we're going to look at context

play03:47

subject keyword tagging first i'm going

play03:49

to look at some advice from

play03:50

how to take smart notes by sanke irens

play03:54

great book to read if you're interested

play03:55

in this sort of thing you don't have to

play03:57

you can find a lot of these things on

play03:58

the internet but oftentimes it's nice to

play04:00

find it in a nice structured place

play04:02

so some care says and i hope i'm

play04:05

pronouncing his name right

play04:06

keywords should be chosen carefully and

play04:09

sparsely

play04:10

i.e not adding 15 different things that

play04:13

you'll never

play04:14

or that will just create a mess in your

play04:15

mind and you know not actually enable

play04:18

you to find the thing later

play04:19

and then keywords should always be

play04:21

assigned with an eye towards the topics

play04:22

you are working on or

play04:24

interested in never by looking at the

play04:26

notes in isolation and then you said

play04:27

that it requires thinking

play04:29

so it's not just a case of

play04:32

seeing oh that's got notes

play04:35

in the book title how to take smart

play04:37

notes i'm going to put their

play04:40

notes hashtag notes it's more around

play04:42

like

play04:43

structured thinking or zettelcasten or

play04:45

whatever it might be

play04:47

just an example and things that i'm

play04:49

asking myself when i'm looking at notes

play04:52

what are the questions that i want to

play04:53

answer long term like

play04:55

in 10 years 15 years whatever and then

play04:58

also what are the breadcrumbs that i can

play05:00

leave for myself

play05:01

that will remain beyond my short-term

play05:03

memory because i know that like

play05:05

my memory is bad and i think everyone's

play05:08

memory is bad like

play05:09

from from a transitioning from

play05:11

short-term to long-term memory the way

play05:13

that our brains process those memories

play05:15

is faulty to some degree and then this

play05:18

i just put this here how do i get

play05:19

contextual congruence

play05:21

without even understanding what that

play05:23

means contextual congruence is like

play05:25

buzz word but i think the one thing is i

play05:27

just i just want to avoid getting

play05:28

trapped in keyword world

play05:30

so contextual con congruence is

play05:33

a little bit higher picture or higher

play05:35

level than you know just keywords in an

play05:37

article

play05:38

so moving from just like what is what

play05:40

are the words in the wikitu

play05:42

what is the point of the article so

play05:45

my method is looking at what are the

play05:47

books that i want to write

play05:49

and i divide that into three different

play05:52

things so the highest level is actually

play05:53

areas like

play05:54

in what areas am i looking to write

play05:56

those books so it could be

play05:59

business spirituality professional

play06:02

life that overlaps with business um you

play06:05

know

play06:05

personal life relationships those are

play06:07

all different areas

play06:09

and then books looks at what are the

play06:11

books that i want to write so for

play06:12

instance in

play06:13

relationships maybe you'd want to write

play06:15

a book on marriage or write a book on

play06:17

friendship or like to write a book on

play06:19

dealing with strangers or something like

play06:21

that so that's

play06:22

like a sub book and then in those books

play06:24

i would break it down into chapters so

play06:27

marriage would be about like you know

play06:28

the different challenges of marriage or

play06:30

the joys of marriage or whatever it

play06:32

might be

play06:33

so another book title that i'm using is

play06:36

decision making now decision making

play06:39

applies in a number of different areas

play06:40

it applies in relationships it applies

play06:43

in professional life business it applies

play06:46

in sociology and politics or whatever

play06:48

like is all different

play06:50

levels of decision making or you know

play06:52

decision making is pertinence all those

play06:53

different things

play06:54

and then within decision making i might

play06:56

look at you know different chapters

play06:58

within that so

play06:59

you know if i'm looking at personal

play07:01

decision making i might look at

play07:03

fallacies and biases and stuff like that

play07:05

and each of those would be a chapter in

play07:07

that book so

play07:08

that's just the way that i i think about

play07:10

it when i'm when i'm doing my tags and

play07:12

it really helps me to

play07:14

to try and get things at the right level

play07:16

it also helps you to develop these

play07:17

skeletons

play07:18

of things that you're working on you

play07:19

know it's because what

play07:21

some care said up here which is look at

play07:24

the topics you are interested in

play07:26

those tend to be the topics that i'm

play07:27

interested in i mean you know these

play07:29

skeletons

play07:30

are the things that are naturally in my

play07:33

mind already

play07:34

so this also applies to inputs you know

play07:36

i can use

play07:37

the areas books and chapters approach

play07:40

and for me the z

play07:41

just indicates we have written it myself

play07:44

and it also makes it more searchable

play07:45

because now

play07:46

in my search bar i can say z-a

play07:49

and there we go i've got relationship

play07:52

spirituality

play07:54

money and i can go zb i can look at

play07:57

working christianity debt interesting

play07:59

one that comes up there

play08:01

um zcc i could look at trade-offs

play08:04

hiring prioritization that really makes

play08:07

it easy for me to go and find things

play08:08

i think that's what i'm trying to say so

play08:10

the difference between my output which

play08:12

is denoted with a z

play08:13

a colon areas and my input

play08:16

which is just areas is that z and that

play08:19

colon so

play08:20

i can use other name spaces or spaces in

play08:23

those names and if you use a forward

play08:25

slash

play08:26

it will actually create the link between

play08:28

the input and

play08:30

the output tag so i want to get into

play08:32

that it might be a little bit confusing

play08:33

for some so that is another way to do

play08:34

your naming so that you can

play08:36

simplify your life a little bit later

play08:37

down the line okay so some examples i

play08:40

think we've chat a little bit about that

play08:41

definitely something i want to look at a

play08:42

bit more in future looking at

play08:44

in my database what i'm working on and

play08:46

how it

play08:47

and how it manifests in in writing etc

play08:50

the second thing i want to look at is

play08:52

thinking in stacks

play08:53

or virtual workshops now there's two

play08:55

components to this that i want to look

play08:57

at

play08:58

the first is timelines or maturity of

play09:00

development

play09:01

what is done what is in progress and

play09:03

what needs to be developed

play09:05

so that's really thinking about like you

play09:07

know managing your process very

play09:08

clearly and some ideas there

play09:12

are the one that i use i think which is

play09:15

quite nice

play09:16

is empty you know if a note is empty and

play09:18

i've just had a title i'll say it's

play09:20

empty

play09:20

if it's something that i want to develop

play09:22

i'll just use the hashtag develop

play09:24

if i've written something that's you

play09:25

know quite meaty but it's still in its

play09:27

raw states i use

play09:28

raw and then medium baked

play09:31

that's like where i start you know doing

play09:34

a little bit more work i haven't done

play09:36

as much work on that side and moving

play09:37

things into reviews so you know that

play09:39

this will

play09:40

probably change that's the beauty of

play09:41

having a flexible system

play09:43

another one that you could use is steak

play09:46

so it goes from blue

play09:47

rare medium medium well well

play09:50

i burnt it you know you can just use

play09:52

something that is visually or

play09:54

sticks with you from a process manager

play09:57

perspective

play09:58

okay and the reason i i've avoided using

play10:00

to do doing done

play10:01

in my stacks is because i use that in

play10:04

crms

play10:05

so in my personal and works crm i use to

play10:07

do doing done to manage tasks

play10:10

so that's the first element the second

play10:12

element is

play10:13

managing working areas so the idea here

play10:17

is to set up different

play10:18

working areas for yourself again using

play10:20

tags

play10:21

so inbox i think this is the most common

play10:24

one that i've seen across a bunch of

play10:25

systems

play10:26

and that just is something that's come

play10:28

in that i have not yet processed

play10:30

again like you know it's separate from

play10:31

like the the note writing process where

play10:34

it's empty or fleeting whatever it's

play10:35

like

play10:36

something that i have to give my

play10:37

attention to and then

play10:39

some other ones that you can look at are

play10:41

ideas things to investigate

play10:43

questions graveyard is like a denotation

play10:46

of something that's

play10:47

moved it's past its life you know it's

play10:50

it's dead and you don't want to delete

play10:53

it but you just put in graveyard

play10:54

observations and fleeting are some of

play10:57

the ones that i've used before in

play10:58

previous videos

play10:59

i don't use the emojis i definitely

play11:01

would like to going forward because it's

play11:02

just a nice visual way and i think you

play11:04

know humans are

play11:05

visual creatures so anything that you

play11:08

can do to help your brain remember

play11:09

is going to really help and then you

play11:11

know sort straight

play11:13

junk all of those just the notes some

play11:16

sort of process

play11:17

you know it's a working area i need to

play11:18

sort this stuff out this stuff is

play11:20

straight it's lost

play11:21

and this stuff is junk it's rubbish um

play11:24

so yeah

play11:25

some ideas there hopefully some of those

play11:27

will work for you

play11:28

levels of abstraction or emergence

play11:31

this one is the coolest for me by way of

play11:34

analogy i'm going to start

play11:36

with a deck of playing cards so

play11:39

here is my deck of playing cards and

play11:42

what i was trying to go for was that

play11:44

look when you played solitaire when you

play11:46

were a kid and all the different things

play11:48

fall down and you filled the whole

play11:49

screen but i didn't have the time to do

play11:51

that so

play11:53

this is your deck of paint cards and now

play11:55

each of these

play11:56

playing cards represents a note in your

play11:59

database

play12:00

you've written all these different notes

play12:02

and now you're looking

play12:03

to aggregate them together to give them

play12:06

some sort of

play12:07

emergent property that is not that is

play12:09

beyond just them

play12:10

individually being a note so if i think

play12:14

of an example from

play12:15

rummy i can have a run which is a

play12:18

numerical sequence of three or more

play12:19

cards of the same suite

play12:21

so that is my 234 there so that is one

play12:24

grouping of the cards

play12:26

i can also have a set group of three or

play12:28

four cards of the same

play12:30

rank and that's also from ramy if i look

play12:32

at it from a poker perspective

play12:34

if i have five cards from the same suite

play12:36

that would be a flush it's just another

play12:38

way to group

play12:39

these cards and then if i have a

play12:42

straight

play12:44

again from poker it's just a numerical

play12:46

sequence of five cards from different

play12:48

suites that's another way to group them

play12:50

but the key point here is that one card

play12:53

can be in more than one of these

play12:55

different groups using things in a

play12:57

repeatable fashion just by drawing on

play12:59

the right resources and just

play13:00

reorganizing these things so there's

play13:02

different levels that you can you can

play13:04

take the cards to

play13:05

again you have my two fives in the

play13:08

corner here i realized that you wouldn't

play13:10

have been able to see

play13:11

those cards earlier but now you can so

play13:13

that makes everyone happy i hope

play13:15

thinking a little beyond this you know

play13:16

you could even have other groupings

play13:18

where you just have red cards you know

play13:20

if you're just having your diamonds and

play13:22

hearts then that would be your red cards

play13:24

or your mail cards that would be your

play13:25

jacks and your kings

play13:27

so there's so many different ways to

play13:29

organize these things but it's all using

play13:31

different notes and building them up

play13:33

and the important part here is that it's

play13:34

flexible you can move things around and

play13:37

you know it doesn't have to stay fixed

play13:38

in that position for all eternity

play13:40

so the zethel casten method is actually

play13:42

all the zettacast and storage of your

play13:44

notes it's only one level

play13:46

of abstraction it's just relating to

play13:49

notes to one another but there's so much

play13:51

more that you can do

play13:52

and i'd like to thank nick marlow and

play13:54

linking your thinking

play13:56

for this like introducing this concept

play13:57

of mocs it's like

play13:59

really helped me think about this a

play14:00

little bit more and

play14:02

it talks about having map notes where

play14:05

you then start grouping nodes together

play14:08

in these

play14:09

maps of content so your notes stays the

play14:11

same

play14:12

or your base note stays the same but

play14:14

then you start grouping those things

play14:16

into different levels of abstraction so

play14:17

it's like a pyramid almost

play14:19

my my face is hiding the bottom right to

play14:21

the pyramid but

play14:22

i like to use my hands so you know

play14:25

you've got

play14:25

your all your notes at the bottom and

play14:27

they feed into your different

play14:29

chapters and then those chapters feed

play14:30

into your different books and then your

play14:32

books

play14:32

will you know be related to a certain

play14:34

area so this is now looking how you can

play14:37

create value later on by grouping notes

play14:40

together

play14:41

in maps but not not just by tagging them

play14:44

you can use the tags to help you do your

play14:46

grouping but

play14:48

it's it's it's separate processes yeah

play14:51

as i said this this area is still very

play14:53

much

play14:53

work in progress for me um i really

play14:56

would recommend if you're interested

play14:57

here to look at linking your thinkings

play14:59

videos

play15:00

but i think the important thing is that

play15:02

you know it's just doing different

play15:03

things with different groups so

play15:05

what is our basic unit and and we'll

play15:06

look at a little bit more in next

play15:08

when i look at next example in another

play15:10

framework here

play15:11

bringing this all together what we're

play15:13

really doing is we're starting with a

play15:14

whole bunch of

play15:16

items in our journal which are denoted

play15:18

by these tags like these are the

play15:19

workshop areas

play15:20

reflection idea fleeting journal any of

play15:23

these things are just like

play15:24

working ideas basically and as i said

play15:27

this is usually in my daily notes

play15:29

journal

play15:31

i then put these things through a funnel

play15:33

which is just either a search or

play15:35

query and then i will decide what i want

play15:37

to work on

play15:38

based on my interest for that day

play15:41

and this goes then into a new note

play15:45

which gets the hashtag raw and as i

play15:48

develop that

play15:49

or you know figure out what i need to

play15:50

develop a little bit more

play15:52

it goes through this process you know

play15:54

this stack moving from one to the next

play15:56

to the next

play15:56

the final element of the categorization

play16:00

is this tagging z-a areas b book

play16:03

z chapter as discussed before i also do

play16:06

it by an endangered process

play16:08

but we'll get into that in future videos

play16:10

now we get to

play16:11

hopefully quite a fun part of the video

play16:13

where we start looking at

play16:14

footholds of these ideas in other

play16:17

frameworks

play16:18

so i think it's a good place to start is

play16:21

linking your thinking their methodology

play16:23

is very cool

play16:24

and they've got a course and workshops

play16:26

and lots of cool things

play16:27

and i also quite like the look of what

play16:30

nick milo is doing

play16:31

so these are the levels of emergence and

play16:34

you know it's just

play16:35

abstraction beyond the different beyond

play16:37

your atomic units of a note

play16:40

so the first level is a note the second

play16:43

level is zettel casting where you're

play16:45

relating those notes

play16:46

the third level almost makes an atomic

play16:49

unit of the zetercaster nodes that are

play16:51

linked together

play16:52

and then builds a map of content the

play16:55

fourth level then

play16:56

makes a you know the atomic unit is the

play16:59

level three which it then aggregates

play17:01

into a different structure

play17:03

this is my understanding of it at least

play17:04

i hope i'm doing it justice

play17:06

and the home page is the level five

play17:09

which

play17:10

for me seems a little bit redundant but

play17:12

it seems to work for a lot of people

play17:13

so to each their own some great

play17:16

principles that i found

play17:17

watching videos nick talks about

play17:19

structure being earned and i really like

play17:21

this idea but at the same time you know

play17:23

you've got an idea of what your

play17:24

interests are you know what you're going

play17:26

to be writing about so

play17:27

having that skeleton it's up to you i

play17:29

like having the skeleton

play17:30

they also talk about when your notes

play17:31

become messy you come through a mental

play17:34

squeeze point or struggle points and

play17:36

that's where you start defining the

play17:37

structure

play17:38

and i found that to be a very cool

play17:40

principle i don't really work like that

play17:41

i'll sort of do a little bit of

play17:43

pre-structuring before i actually get

play17:44

into the note

play17:45

process so maybe not 100 right

play17:48

so that's the first one which is linking

play17:51

your thinking

play17:53

then looking at lumens zettels of

play17:55

zettels

play17:56

so what lumen would do and we spoke

play17:59

about lumen

play18:00

in the previous video if if this is your

play18:02

first time seeing this channel what

play18:03

lumen would do

play18:04

is he would have his settles so his his

play18:07

index cards that he'd written on in

play18:10

complete fashion so they would be usable

play18:11

in other areas

play18:13

and then he would make index cards which

play18:15

linked

play18:16

those different ideas on another zettel

play18:18

so it's also indicating that level of

play18:20

abstraction where you're taking

play18:22

two different things and you're making

play18:24

something higher order from it

play18:26

so that's that's the thinking behind

play18:27

abstractional emergence

play18:30

so robert perseg's methodologies so

play18:32

who's robert persig

play18:34

robert persig wrote a famous book called

play18:36

zenon art of motorcycle maintenance

play18:38

he's got a very very interesting story

play18:40

and he went through psychiatric clinic

play18:42

and yeah i highly recommend reading it

play18:45

he wrote a second book called lila

play18:47

and i haven't read that i think it's

play18:49

lila or lila

play18:51

maybe potato potato and in that second

play18:54

book he

play18:55

spoke about his own index card system

play18:57

that he used to sort of manage the chaos

play18:59

in his mind

play19:00

and i linked that to the digital

play19:03

workshops because

play19:05

his categorizations were unasstimulated

play19:08

was the first one which is

play19:09

new cards that haven't been organized

play19:11

maybe that's my equivalence of fleeting

play19:14

then he had program which was an

play19:16

instruction for his system or

play19:17

instruction for something to do and

play19:19

maybe even like the same concept as

play19:22

lumen like having a link of your settles

play19:25

or

play19:25

link of his cards the third one was

play19:28

crits which was a holding pen for notes

play19:30

that he wanted to move to junk

play19:32

and junk was a notes that he deemed to

play19:34

be below par

play19:35

and not worth publishing and then tough

play19:37

were the cards which

play19:39

had been written and but then had been

play19:41

difficult to organize

play19:42

the next one is the eisenhower matrix so

play19:45

that is also akin to these digital

play19:47

workshops or at least denoting different

play19:48

areas

play19:49

and eisenhower matrix is that you know

play19:51

for that that two by two which is

play19:53

urgence versus importance so if

play19:57

something is urgent and important i want

play19:59

to go work

play19:59

on it so i do that first and you know

play20:02

this shows that you can use a

play20:03

combination of tags to

play20:05

indicate in your digital workshop where

play20:07

you want to go and work

play20:09

and then gtd that's getting things done

play20:13

that's a book by david allen which is

play20:15

quite famous

play20:16

for from a knowledge working perspective

play20:18

just because it talks about

play20:20

you know being very productive if that's

play20:23

your vibe

play20:24

so this is where the to do doing done

play20:26

comes in using

play20:27

kanban styles as well i think i think

play20:30

david allen actually introduced

play20:31

inbox i'm gonna come clean you i haven't

play20:33

read the book but i i worked in an

play20:35

organization that like

play20:36

revered his work so i think i've got a

play20:39

lot of it by osmosis i hope

play20:41

but the other thing is that it's also

play20:43

very flexible like you know you need to

play20:45

make the method work for yourself

play20:47

then lumens methodology what i see

play20:49

popularized in how to take smart notes

play20:51

by sanke irens

play20:53

this idea of moving from fleeting or

play20:55

literature

play20:56

or to permanent maybe maybe the

play20:58

literature's even in the wrong place

play21:00

here but idea of moving from fleeting

play21:02

to permanent nodes just shows us like

play21:04

moving things along the process

play21:06

what's coming next i realize i probably

play21:09

am able to add more value if i spend

play21:10

more time writing so hopefully i'll be

play21:12

able to spend some more time writing

play21:14

and then i want what i want to really

play21:16

look at is queries and indentation

play21:17

because this is starting to emerge to me

play21:19

as like a really important

play21:20

and and cool thing cool way of working

play21:23

and that's why i say the magic

play21:24

like i really like the ability of

play21:26

querying a database it just

play21:28

completely transforms the way that you

play21:30

work because you can be super

play21:31

scatterbrained

play21:32

use your tags and then magic and then

play21:36

you know speaking to that point managing

play21:38

or at least trying to manage your

play21:39

professional life

play21:40

so a couple of my colleagues are

play21:42

starting to use logsy so i'd love to

play21:44

make a video that is applicable to

play21:45

to them further resources for this video

play21:48

linking your thinking videos

play21:50

i will link to those below nick does a

play21:53

really good job he just seems to be very

play21:54

authentic and i like his vibe

play21:56

maybe one day i can be like him and then

play21:58

jamie mills has this course

play21:59

which is roman tangled um it's it's the

play22:02

first

play22:03

part of it is free i'd highly recommend

play22:05

looking through that if this

play22:06

this sort of interested you because he

play22:09

also looks at

play22:10

ways of structuring and working and

play22:13

doing things in a repeatable way and

play22:15

yeah this course is very well laid out

play22:17

so with that said i

play22:21

look forward to seeing you back here

play22:22

soon thank you so much for your support

play22:24

once again

play22:25

i'm really enjoying this it's a lot of

play22:26

hard work but i appreciate the feedback

play22:28

and the comments that i'm getting

play22:30

so hopefully i'll continue to make some

play22:33

good videos
