Q & A
What is Personal Knowledge Management (PKM)?
-Personal Knowledge Management is the process of streamlining how you gather, organize, and use information. It involves creating a system that helps you effectively manage the knowledge you acquire for personal or professional growth.
Why is PKM important for an individual?
-PKM is important because it helps individuals to efficiently manage the information they encounter daily, ensuring that they can retrieve and utilize it when needed. This leads to better decision-making, learning, and overall productivity.
What are the three golden pillars of personal Knowledge Management?
-The three golden pillars of PKM are Capture, Retrieve, and Re-emerge. Capture involves getting information into your system efficiently. Retrieve ensures that you can easily access the stored information. Re-emerge refers to the serendipitous discovery of information that was stored but not actively sought, which can lead to new insights.
How does the 'Capture' pillar work in PKM?
-Capture in PKM is about making the process of getting information into your system as easy and frictionless as possible. It involves saving information from various sources like meetings, conversations, podcasts, and personal thoughts in a way that is accessible for future use.
Can you explain the 'Retrieve' pillar in PKM?
-The 'Retrieve' pillar focuses on the ease with which you can access information from your PKM system. It's about trusting your past self to have organized the information in a way that your future self can find it quickly, often within seconds.
What is the concept of 'Re-emerge' in PKM?
-Re-emerge in PKM is the unexpected discovery of information that was previously stored. It's about the serendipity of finding a note or a piece of information that relates to your current work, which you didn't actively seek but is valuable for your current thinking.
What methodologies are suggested for building an effective PKM system?
-The methodologies suggested for building an effective PKM system include Daily Notes First, Log Re-discover (Log, Relate, Discover), Getting Things Done (project and task management), and Sprints and Efforts.
What is the purpose of 'Daily Notes First' in PKM?
-The 'Daily Notes First' methodology is about having a daily note that serves as a jump-off point for everything else you do that day. It helps in organizing daily activities and thoughts, which can then be connected to other notes or projects.
Can you describe the 'Log Re-discover' methodology?
-The 'Log Re-discover' methodology, also known as 'Log Redes', is a system for capturing all information that you find interesting or valuable. It involves logging the information with enough context, relating it by assigning tags, and later discovering or creating a homepage (Map of Content) to consolidate and organize this information.
How does 'Getting Things Done' methodology fit into PKM?
-The 'Getting Things Done' methodology fits into PKM by providing a framework for project and task management. It helps in organizing projects into sub-projects and tasks, making it easier to track progress and manage workload effectively.
What is the 'Sprints and Efforts' methodology and its role in PKM?
-The 'Sprints and Efforts' methodology is about making focused efforts on tasks or projects for a specific period. It helps in documenting the work done, resources used, and progress made, which can be linked to projects and sub-projects for easy retrieval and reflection.

π Introduction to Personal Knowledge Management
This paragraph introduces the concept of Personal Knowledge Management (PKM), emphasizing the importance of understanding theories and concepts to create an effective PKM system. It highlights the session's focus on exploring the meaning of PKM, the three golden pillars of PKM, and the necessary toolkit and methodologies. The speaker invites the audience to a 'PKM game show' to familiarize themselves with PKM theories, starting with defining PKM and its purpose, which is to streamline the gathering, organizing, and using of information.
π The Three Golden Pillars of PKM
The speaker elaborates on the three foundational pillars of a personal Knowledge Management System: capture, retrieve, and emerge. Capture involves the effortless intake of valuable information, considering how future self will retrieve it. Retrieve is about accessing past information efficiently, relying on a system that aligns with the capture process. Emerge refers to the unexpected resurfacing of ideas or notes, facilitated by tools like Obsidian, which allows notes to link and reference each other, fostering serendipitous connections and aiding current thinking.
π οΈ Methodologies for Effective PKM
This section introduces four methodologies tested over two years to adhere to the three golden pillars of PKM. The methodologies include daily notes as a daily starting point, log redes for capturing stray thoughts and ideas, 'Getting Things Done' for project and task management, and Sprints and efforts for elevating PKM to the next level. The speaker provides an overview of how these methodologies contribute to an organized and efficient PKM system.
ποΈ Daily Notes and Log Redes Systems
The paragraph delves into the daily notes system, which serves as a central hub for daily activities and thoughts, branching out to other ideas or notes. It explains how daily notes roll up into weeks and form an interconnected web of information. The log redes system is introduced as a method for capturing all interesting or valuable information, assigning tags for context, and eventually discovering and creating content from these logs. The paragraph illustrates how information is captured once and then pushed to relevant pages or 'Mocs' for future retrieval and use.
π Project and Task Management with GTD Principles
Inspired by David Allen's 'Getting Things Done', this paragraph discusses project and task management within the PKM system. It outlines the structure of projects, sub-projects, and tasks, and how they contribute to stress-free productivity. The speaker suggests using Obsidian for this purpose, though acknowledges that for some, a more robust task management system might be necessary. The paragraph provides an example of how projects and tasks are organized and managed in Obsidian, emphasizing the clarity and organization it brings to complex projects.
β‘οΈ Sprints and Efforts for Project Progression
The final methodology discussed is Sprints and Efforts, which involves making concentrated efforts on tasks and documenting these efforts within the PKM system. This method allows for a clear timeline of work done on projects, making it easy to pick up where one left off after a long period. The speaker highlights the effectiveness of this approach in providing a quick and efficient way to retrieve information about past work and efforts invested in projects.
π Building and Structuring Your PKM System
In the concluding paragraph, the speaker guides the audience on how to build up their PKM system, now that they understand the theories and have the toolkit. The speaker mentions two types of vaults: the Evergreen Vault and the Work Vault, which are used to organize different aspects of personal and professional knowledge. The audience is encouraged to watch further videos on setting up Obsidian, incorporating the discussed theories to enhance their relationship with information.

Transcripts
you are here because you have an issue
the issue is either Gathering organizing
or the using of information your
knowledge management system is not
working for you and the reason why it's
not working is because you might not be
familiar with the theories and Concepts
that you need to know in order to make
your knowledge management system an
effective one so this session is all
about knowledge we will look at what
personal Knowledge Management means
we'll talk about the three golden
pillars of personal Knowledge Management
then we'll go into the toolkit the
theory that we need to understand in
order to build out our personal
Knowledge Management System and that is
daily notes first log redes it is
combining the two of them it is project
and task managements and it Sprints and
efforts so sit back relax and take in
the theory that you will have to
understand if you ever wish to have a
loving relationship with your
information
welcome to the PKM game show and in this
game show we're going to go through
three questions to get you familiar with
the theory related to personal Knowledge
Management this will be a quick segment
but it's very important because we are
going to go through the tools the
theories the methodologies that you need
in order to set up your personal
Knowledge Management System are you
ready my friends and family and
guests I hope you are because we are
going straight into question number one
what is personal Knowledge Management or
PKM if you are already a subscriber of
my channel you should have some idea of
what PKM is what it's use for how it's
useful for
you but my experience is most people
haven't thought deeply about this
question and this is where you need to
start you need to understand what you're
trying to do in order to achieve
something that would serve you that
would be beneficial to you if you just
go into this journey blind you won't get
to the result that you want or you'll
get less optimal results now what is
personal Knowledge Management if we
break down the words personal Knowledge
Management personal stands for yourself
it is your identity knowledge it's
knowledge that we acquire but what do we
want to do with that knowledge want to
interact with it we want output from it
we want to digest this
information so the
answer in a very simplistic way of
explaining it is it streamlines how you
gather organize and use information
that's it we all have our own personal
Knowledge Management Systems
it just might not be
optimal you might have a notepad that
you take notes on you might have a
physical Journal that you write in you
have Google Maps where you save
restaurants you have notes on your
iPhone that you put down quick thoughts
and ideas and things you want to
remember you save posts on social
media but your personal Knowledge
Management System is quite dispersed you
might spend hours looking for a thing
that you knew you saved at a point in
time but you cannot
retrieve and that means that your PKM
system is not up to scratch it means
that there is something wrong with it so
this channel we explore what a personal
Knowledge Management System should be
and why it's important for you and the
tools and methodologies available to you
but you need to understand the key
Concepts so that you can create
something beautiful so question number
two what is the three golden pillars of
personal Knowledge Management so if
personal Knowledge Management is to
retrieve store and use
information what would be the foundation
of the system what would you need in
order for the system to
work and this is also something that you
always need to think about when you
gather information you put it into your
system how will this information be used
what is the restrictions that I put in
this information how would I use this
information again where would I retrieve
it so what is the foundation the
structure which we always need to think
back to the basic laws of personal
Knowledge Management that we need to
adhere to in order for it to be useful
and I've come up with the three golden
pillars and according to me if you
adhere to these three golden pillers
you'll fine and the first one is
capture now capture is when information
comes into your system captures wherever
you receive information this might be in
meetings this might be in conversations
this might be own thoughts this might be
from podcast from YouTube it is all the
information that comes to your system
that you want to save now you want to
make capture as easy as
possible but you also need to think
about where this information is going to
go you need to think about future you
how will future sure you use this
information and you need to be in that
mindset of okay I'm here at this point
in time I have this knowledge which I
found interesting or valuable and I want
to save and it's intended to be used
somewhere in the future For My Future
Self how will future self retrieve this
another thing about capture is you want
to make it as frictionless as possible
if there's too much friction you won't
use it so capture you need to think
about future yourself how are you going
to put it in a way that future you can
find it and it needs to be frictionless
because if it takes an hour to put a
piece of information into your system
you'll quickly get
bored and next one is retrieve now you
are trying to retrieve something from
past you and then you might need to put
yourself in the mindset of how would P
me have entered that information for
myself now at this point in time to find
it
and retrieve is all
about being in the right place because
you should trust past you your past you
should have the same systems that future
you have there need to be some type of
alignment now between capture and
retrieve there's a conversation going
and this will take time to refine to
effectively communicate between
effectively the two different people so
this will evolve this will be a
relationship that Bol with yourself you
want to capture information in such a
way that you know future you would find
it and future you need to trust pass you
to put it in such a way or present in
such a way that it can be useful and
retrieved easily so it also needs to be
frictionless if you know that there's a
piece of information in your system you
should be able to retrieve it within a
couple of seconds if not your personal
Knowledge Management System is
broken and lastly which I find the most
valuable in some sense is reemerge or
emerge this is where Serendipity comes
into your system that lucky golden
nuggets that you didn't expect to
find and the tools that we use for our
personal Knowledge Management System for
now is Obsidian and obsidian allows for
linking and referencing and it basically
allows for notes to talk to each other
and this allow for idea
thoughts notes conversations to reemerge
when you least expect it and it helps
with your current thinking so emergence
this is when you're working on something
and you start typing a note and then you
find a note from two years back which
relates to the subject that you didn't
know that you put into your system and
somehow that note has found its way back
to you now think about it this is
beautiful we have obsidian which allows
for all of this functionality of notes
coming to you when you need it of
popping up out of the ether compared to
the old way of consuming and using
information and folder structures where
the notes are jailed to a specific
folder that would never see the lights
of day again now reemergence does not
just come with notes it comes with our
log system a log red system there's
multiple ways for you to retrieve
information and throughout this video
when we go through the work Vault you'll
see how reemergence works so capture
retrieve emerge the three golden pillars
question three what methodologies do we
use let's backtrack a little bit to
understand what we mean by
methodologies we are using a software
called obsidian in order to build our
personal Knowledge Management System we
know in a personal Knowledge Management
System we need to adhere to the three
golden pillars which is capture retrieve
and reemerge in order to adhere to these
pillars we use a toolkit and these
toolkits are methodologies these are
methodologies and structures that we use
in order to make our personal Knowledge
Management effective to make it adhere
to the three golden pillars I have four
in mind and these methodologies are
methodologies that I have tested over
the last two
years and I feel you need to have these
four in order to have a knowledge
management
system that aderes to the three pillars
the first one is daily notes first which
is basically means that you should have
one note that you should come to on a
daily basis and it provides your jump
off point for everything else on that
day we have log redes which is a system
that I came up with which stands for log
relate discover this is a system that
works with the daily notes first system
which helps you capture stray thoughts
and ideas random thoughts random ideas
random things that interest you and
pushes it through to the relevant
Pages getting things done that's just
reference to a book by David Allen in
which he speaks about project and task
management and lastly we have Sprints
and efforts which I feel is one of those
ingredients which just elevates your PKM
to the next
level let's start running through them
we're going to start with the daily
notes
first the daily notes first I'm going to
go back to a diagram that I used
probably a year ago in one of my videos
I spice it up a little bit with
different
colors but at the left hand side you can
see that we have a typical week and each
orange dot represents a daily note it
starts with 2024 1 of January and it
ends with the seventh of January for
that week those notes they roll up to a
specific week now if you look at the
type of information that we might have
captured on each day we can see it
branches out to other colored
circles you might wonder what do these
represent well each of these colored
circles either represents a note or an
idea just some connection that was made
between today and this specific note you
can see that that are different colored
circles they all get pushed through to
something called an Moc and an Moc it
stands for map of content and it's
basically a homepage for specific topic
you can think of a cooking Moc which is
your homepage for everything cooking
related so on each day when you cooked
the meal you wanted to log your progress
and log the recipes that you've tried
you want those notes and those ideas and
those logs you wanted to be pushed
through to a home note and and this
spiderweb of connectiveness this is
what's being formed notes are starting
to speak to each other notes are being
pushed to where you will consume them
later where you want to review them
later and you can see there's always
connections being made and it acts
similarly to the connections in your
brain now we have one week full of
connections you can see over time that
these weeks pile on and the weeks they
start to form connections more
connections the interweb of connection
that you have decided this gets larger
and larger and larger but the funny
thing with a personal Knowledge
Management tool like obsidian and the
strategies that we use in order to make
it an effective personal Knowledge
Management
System it does not get more overwhelming
with more connections with more notes
because we do it in such a way that it's
always
organized and now we have an idea of the
daily notes first how the
connections would form what does a daily
note look like now daily notes might
look something like this very
simplistic we have today's date as the
heading of this page and then we might
have a log and this is how I like to
capture everything that I'm busy with in
a day and I Tred to get people to buy
into this daily notes for system where
you use this as a platform to jump of
and go into different directions think
of this as your main story line and
everything else is little side
Adventures at 9:00 a.m. we went on a
side Adventure away from our main story
line and we went to the gym to excise
legs and we went into a one of 45
minutes at 2 p.m.
we diverted from the main story line
again to go on a side adventure to a
meeting with the manager and at 6 p.m.
we went off the main road again in order
to go on a little side quest which was
related to cooking so we made a red
lentil Curry and gave some comments I
used too much salt added extra garlic
with smice you can see that this is
almost a map of things and places that
you went to on that
day now the next concept that we use in
combination with the daily notes first
system or methodology is something that
I like to call log redes stands for log
relate discover and this is a system
which is critical to my knowledge
management system and and I think
there's not enough people utilizing this
functionality now what is loges loges is
essentially a system where you can
capture every and all information that
comes into your realm into your sphere
into your bubble that you find
interesting or valuable this could be
from Reading from podcasts from having
conversations from watching TVs and
movies from watching YouTube reading
articles just thinking anything that
your interest which you might find some
value for later goes into the
system one way that I make my social
media scrolling a little bit more
productive is if I come across a cool
post related to a new restaurant that I
want to visit or a cool location that I
never heard of that I might want to
travel to I pop this into my system
saying this is on traveling on Europe on
nature reserve on Europe traveling so
you just add enough context for that one
idea and then in the future you might
want to revisit a collection of ideas
but then I should have hundreds of logs
of things that I find interesting so
it's curated for you by
you and then the next step is relate the
relate already happens when you log it
you assign tags to it you will assign
context to it think about improving your
sleep habits whenever you come across
information that pertains to sleeping
and better sleep hygiene you add the
necessary tags and then two months down
the line you must have found time in
order to explore this concept in more
detail and that's when you create a
homepage when you get to the Discover
pod where you create an Moc map of
content which is also a
homepage and you pull in all of that
information in order to make something
out of it to change your habits and
that's the outputs that's the fruit that
you see in the Discover
phase and we've developed this in our
system to make it as easy as possible
because we don't want any valuable ideas
thoughts knowledge information that we
deem interesting enough to go to
waste you might wonder how do we use the
daily notes for with loges everything
that we do can be a log and loges just
shows how information gets pushed to
different areas how information or input
it we can see again at 9:00 a.m. we
logged an exercise using the log R
system we logged it we said we went to
the gym we have a hashtag saying this is
log exercise gym and had a tough gym
session and then we loged the SAA
session this is information that we
might want to come back to see how many
times did we JY legs in a year when did
we have injuries related to jimming legs
or how many sessions of sauna did we
have how long did I sit in the sauna for
these are just archive not really
valuable information but you can see how
in the future if you have enough
knowledge you can extract value from it
and this log through the log R system
that's captured on your daily note gets
automatically sent to your exercise
Moc now for our next side Adventure that
we went on we had a meeting with our
manager and that is a note that we just
referenced on our daily note
and that is going to be a meeting note
by itself in the meeting which we'll go
through
later in the meeting we will have all
the details related to who was in the
meeting what was the context of the
meeting everything that was said in the
meeting the tasks that came out of it
but that note itself will pop up in our
meetings MC so you can see there's
multiple ways to retrieve information we
can either go to our daily notes and see
oh yes I remembered that I had a meeting
that day or we can go to our meeting sem
see or we can go to our project related
to that meeting and find the meeting
there as
well and the last side quest side
Adventure that we went on was cooking
red lenal curry and that gets sent to
our cooking log in our cooking homepage
or cooking
M you can see how these different pieces
of information get sent but but the
spider web of
interconnectiveness is
Amplified when we start looking at the
cooking
example we have ree red lentil Curry
which gets reference in the cuisine
vegetarian homepage but the cuisine
vegetarian homepage gets reference in
our cooking homepage because it's one of
the
Cuisines and if we go back to the recipe
red lville curry you can see that it's
also reference on the recipes but the
log is sent to all three pages because
that's how we set it up it goes there
automatically so I'm hoping you start to
see the value in a system like this it
organizes information for you where you
only have to capture it
once now the next principle that we want
to get to the next methodology is
something by David Allen from the book
getting things done and he basically
talks about how to have stressfree
productivity related to project and task
management and I would put a disclaimer
that I don't think obsidian is
necessarily the best project and task
management system you need to figure out
if this is complex or simple enough to
use in your use case and I know there's
some people that want a more robust task
management system and I would say use
obsidian conjunction
with applications like todoist or
mandame or whatever your software of
choice is for task managements for me I
feel obsidian works well enough because
I revisit my obsidian dashboard often
enough to make it useful I also have it
on my
phone but other people might not have
the obsidian sync so the project and
task management functionality might not
be up to your standards but this is
something that you need to discover for
yourself I do believe that you should
still have projects in obsidian and then
maybe Outsource the
tasks now from getting things done we
have project management which is the top
of the mountain that is your end goal
and the tasks assigned to the sub
projects in order to finish this entire
project that is basically your progress
towards that goal if you finish all the
tasks the project will be done as
well now an example of project
management and Tas management together
you can see that we will have the first
level horizontal second level horizontal
third level horizontal and these are
just the different subc atories so we
start with work personal creative so
these are your
overarching project Pages if you want to
go look at all your personal projects
you go click on that personal page and
there you'll see all the personal
projects that you have in your system so
you can see we have different projects
project family vacation 2024 project
gardening project cooking and these all
personal projects that we have now when
we go to the second level horizontal and
we click on let's say for instance
project family vacation 2024 we're going
to have more sub projects related to
that project now we are on the third
level horizontal level we can see we
have four sub projects destination
research travel Arrangement
accommodation booking activity planning
and then we go to the vertical lineage
which is essentially the task management
of this whole
project and we can see that we have all
the different tasks and we can also see
that if we check off these tasks the sub
projects will be closed which means that
the main project would also be closed
and this is a simple idea this is also
how we structure it in obsidian we have
a project page for family vacation and
within that project homepage for family
vacation 2024 we're going to have four
sub projects and if you want to work on
destination research you're going to go
to sub project one and you can see all
your tasks all your efforts all the work
that you've already done related to this
project will be in one place it would
give you comfort to know that you won't
get bugged down in details you won't get
confused as to what you've done already
and what you still need to do because
everything is well structured get your
mind well acquainted with this structure
because if you have this structure in
mind if you relate all the tasks and all
your efforts and all your work to a
project which rolls up to a main project
you won't get confused or feel that you
are overwhelmed
again and lastly we have Sprints and
efforts Sprints or efforts is basically
something that you
do for a project so let's say you have
task number one which is research
destination search online for vacation
spot R travel blogs list top three
destinations let's say you can get it
done in 30 minutes then you are going to
on your daily note you're going to make
a Sprint or an effort
and within that Sprint or effort you are
going to show what you've done so in
this Sprint or this effort I search for
vacation spots and here's the document
that I worked on related to vacation
spots here's the blog articles that I
read and this is where I listed my top
three destinations and that is an effort
which gets sent to your sub project
which also gets sent to your main
project so it
provides when you look back over the
whole project it provide yourself with a
timeline of every effort that you put
into this project so you can think of
these bonfires when you've traveled the
whole journey and you look back you can
see these little bonfires of how you got
to where you are
now and I don't see a lot of people
using this but this is so effective it
allows you to quickly and efficiently
retrieve information as to what you've
done the last time you were busy with
this task or project
it could be 3 years in between and you
can immediately see for this project
what was the last thing that I've done
where do I start again where's all the
resources that I've used in the past and
this just allows for more stressfree
work because you don't need to remember
what is the last thing you've done you
don't need to remember where's the
documents that you worked on last
because you're going to have a link to
it you won't have to remember I remember
watching that YouTube video about the
destinations but I can't find again
because you would have put that link
into the Sprints and efforts which
relates to your projects which relates
and roll up to their parent
projects now this is the last tool that
we're going to use in our toolkit
Sprints and efforts look at you you are
a personal Knowledge Management expert
now the next question is how do you
build it up
you understand the theories you have the
toolkits what do you do next well
luckily there's videos where I go
through the setup of my personal
knowledge management software of choice
obsidian where you can pull it out for
yourself and incorporate these theories
I have two vaults that I go through the
one is the Evergreen Vault and the other
one is the work vault in the future I'll
have a bunch of other vaults dedicated
or concentrated at specific subjects but
for now we have the Evergreen and and
work Vault please go watch those videos
and incorporate a better relationship
with your information strength and honor
strength upon your kin
