A style of Taking better notes by connecting small, narrowly-focused, interrelated notes developed by Niklas Luhmann. Zettelkasten translates literally to a slip-box, or a box of notes.
Core concepts
- Notes should be concise and constrained to a single concept. Multiple concepts should be described separately and related via links.
- Notes should be taken in your own words to facilitate understanding, and be written in such a way that no additional context is necessary to understand them.
- Notes should be discoverable not through a hierarchy of categories, but through notes on related concepts chosen by how you'll want to come across the note in the future.
