Thank you for sharing this. I will definitely give this method a try.
Great video! And how do you make de E! and S! main cards? Do ou make an whole main card with a citation?
Typically I make a new main card for the quote or excerpt. For sources, the S! I don’t make a card. That is just a reminder for me to investigate that source and see if it is of interest to me. So I create cards for E! As those are quotes but not for S!
Good Work
Great job...thanks!
Cora Park
Thanks for making this, I first came here after skipping to the step-by-step part of the book and just getting pissed at it. I'm sure it has good stuff but I think it could be a bit better for someone just trying to dive in. I think your video really shows the potential of where this system can go, and how it's supposed to "live" in a sense, so I feel better able and more interested in starting it out (and probably getting rid of those categories Scott has us set up). Something that sticks out to me is how it reminds me of Leitner boxes (which I actually thought Scott's book was about before I skimmed through it; it's actually more like a really systematic analog flash-card quiz box built on visual, auditory, I guess linguistic connections in the context of language learning). I read Fluent Forever a couple years ago and it was mind blowing, not just in terms of how analog systems are useful, but also how the "flaws" of human memory are what make it so fascinating to work with, and how that aspect of "recall" makes new connections that strengthen memories. I was learning Chinese at the time, and although I stopped after only several months, some of it was definitely internalized and I actually use that principle of "recall" to learn pretty much everything now. I will always appreciate that forgetting something but TRYING to recall it and then recalling it correctly, or actually just recalling at all as I am now, will solidify the memory in a new way and I'm curious about how it will unfold with this system.
I am a psychology student and I wanted to have a zettelkasten for every day reading and one for psychology base information. Should I combine the two or leave it separate?
You can combine them and just have different categories for them. Personally I would combine them as you might make some interesting connections between the two
@@HowToCode_iothank you! do you mind giving me an example
They are just categories at the end of the day. So create a category for your psychology related notes and other categories for the books you are reading. You may also want to look into using a common place book. I have another video on common place book vs zettelkasten that may be helpful.
@@HowToCode_iothank you, i’ll check it out!
How would this work writing a fictional novel?
Thank you for boiling this down! I should have watched this video first.
The best tutorial! thks!
Thank you!!
6:37 u can use chatgpt to solve it
Leuchtturm is German for watchtower and is pronounced LOISHT-toorm.
Thank you!
This is very helpful, clear and concise. I've been wanting to begin to develop some book projects and this analog approach takes me right back to my high school research papers, so a good starting place. Very simple, very effective. Thank you.
Incredible job ser! I’m reading Scott’s book rn and thought to myself I wonder who has distilled this on UA-cam lol. And here it is, absolutely stellar. Bought that same box. Have a project im about to start and I had just discovered obsidian after years of analog note taking; I’m not a slouch with computers but I just immediately felt uncomfortable. Stumbled on one of Scott’s videos. Super pleased :) Take care and God bless 😊
God bless you, brother! Thanks for the kind words.
Best video of ZK.
Wow! Thank you :)
Thank you. 600 pages boiled down into a sane 30 mins. The book could’ve been a 100 page pamphlet, so you’ve done a great service to us all.
That’s exactly what I was trying to do. I am glad I could help.
About to embark on a history project, and this type of organization for outlining the many books I will have to read will be WAY easier because of this. Thanks for taking the time.
Glad I could help!
I do appreciate your thoughtful approach when discussing Zettelkasten and commonplace books. Certainly, each has its place, and can contribute meaningfully to our learning and writing. Between your channel and Kathleen Spracklen's channel, there's good, and I would argue, necessary reflection and dialogue on how we go about organizing what we learn. Thank you!
My pleasure and thank you! Kathleen is a sweetheart. She knows this stuff better than me and has been at it for a lot longer than myself too
Thank you for creating such an informative and EASY way to manage this system.
Thank you for creating such an informative and EASY way to manage this system.
Glad I could help ;)
So what’s the point you never actually take notes on anything. How does this work for math and physics.
I believe this system isn’t exactly for cold hard facts. The essence of this system is it takes information for you to build your thoughts on which builds knowledge. You then take all the built upon data to use towards writing a book, expanding your thoughts etc
Your voice is oddly calming. I’m glad UA-cam recommended your video. Have a nice day ❤.
I never understood the disconnect on UA-cam. It was always clear to me that a commonplace book could and should seamlessly integrate into the zettlekast.
why analog?
Good video. Thank you. Do you archive every catch all pocket notebook? No other long term archival system?
I keep all of my notebooks. I will eventually get the archive box from field notes to store them in
Interesting and helpful. Thank you for posting. My goodness, you have so many ideas! I wish you the best, God bless.
@TacomaJ51 thank you! May God bless you too :)
I like how you stressed that both of these are tools. Simply things with slightly different use cases that will get the job done. But my favorite was the part where you talked about hybrid methods being at least viable, if not more effective for specific people.
@@thepostgradyear hybrid is much more effective to me.
@@betamass3803 How did you combine a Zettelkasten and Commonplace Book?
@@thepostgradyear I use the structure of Zettelkasten, where I link notes to other notes with similar meanings or ideas to create a broader understanding of a topic. The commonplace book is where I collect notes, quotes, and ideas, which I later organize using the Zettelkasten structure.
@@betamass3803 Do you also use a smaller item to catch the information immediately and reduce the amount going into the commonplace, have a ton of commonplace books, or an absurd level of self control?
@@thepostgradyear Most of the information and ideas I work with come from book passages that I’ve highlighted. After highlighting these passages, I read through them and look for connections between different highlighted sections. I don’t use a smaller item to capture information immediately, nor do I have multiple commonplace books. Instead, I focus on identifying and linking ideas from the highlighted passages within my existing notes. This approach helps me manage and connect information effectively without needing excessive organizational tools or self-control.
Is Notecard System are from Commonplace Book?
Not sure I understand the question. Can you clarify?
@@HowToCode_io I put the highlighted passage from the book on my index card and connect all the other passages that I think are related from other highlighted passages in the book. I read it and also research the words that I don't understand so that I can deepen my understanding of the passages I highlighted. Is that Zettelkasten, a commonplace book, or both?
Sounds like a bit of both. You should check out the video by Ryan Holiday and the article that desribes his system. I think you will find it helpful. At the end of the day the terminology is just semantics so just use these tools however you want to achieve the goals you have.
@@HowToCode_io Thank you!!!
The best zettlekasten tutorial I’ve seen after doing a lot of searching. Thank you!
Thank you!
Excellent video. Scott was very confusing. This description used a lot more common sense and flexibility, based on what you need it for. Thank you!
Thank you! Glad I could help :)
Great video!! I have spent the last 12 hours looking for a video that makes this make sense. How would this work in the arena of fiction writing? I am halfway through a novel and am kind of stuck. Would this method help and if so, how? Thanks again! Great content!
Thank you! You should check out ua-cam.com/channels/VITWPXi9lofpewbvk2FW7Q.html her whole channel is about using a ZK for fiction writing. There is also a fiction writers group in Scott’s community that would probably be very helpful for you. I also really like www.jessicabrody.com/online-writing-courses/ her courses are fantastic!! I also highly recommend her book save the cat writes a novel. I think that book and maybe some of her courses will help you.
This video give me complete clarity of using this method. Thank you.
How do you decide what numbers to use? I get the first few main categories, 1-5000....But how do you decide what is 4100, 4257, etc ?
The numbers are completely arbitrary. You rely upon the index to find the locations of cards. I show how I found this in the video. I don’t use Scott’s numbering system for this very reason.
Thanks for this video. I've been considering if maybe an analogue Zettelkasten might be better suited for me, since with my current digital set-up I tend to collect information like there's no tomorrow but not ending up doing much with it. Doing it with actual pen and paper might force me to be more conscientious of what I actually note down, and by necessity review previous notes when looking where to classify new notes. And to future-proof against losing my physical notes in a fire or flood or something, one could then scan the notes, apply some OCR + check if OCR made any mistakes, and then put them in a digital Zettelkasten organized in the same way as the physical one and without further alteration (to avoid re-complicating things). Or maybe this part is just me overcomplicating things already before even having started (>_>) In any case, I'll definitely look into Scheper's book. Thanks again for the vid!
I had this exact same issue as digital tools made it too easy to collect things. I found this article very helpful called “The Collector’s fallacy” zettelkasten.de/posts/collectors-fallacy/ An an analog ZK pretty much stopped my over collecting because there is just enough friction to keep you from creating useless notes and material. You should definitely give it a try and let me know how it goes ;)
A concise and practical overview of Zettelkasten, with enough specifics to be a complete course in itself. After years of searching for a way of studying that made sense to me, I found the Zettelkasten methodology, which as anyone familiar with it has experienced, is overwhelming in the amount of information available on UA-cam and the internet. This brief video is organized amazingly well, and is effective in introducing Zettelkasten in a way that nothing else I have researched has been able to do, itself a demonstration of how useful Zettelkasten may be. Very nice work. And thanks.
Thank you! I am glad I could help ;)
Would love to see how you would use these for software development concepts / technical books.
It’s interesting you bring this up, because I have been wondering the same thing. I haven’t used my ZK for technical books partly because the information goes out of date so quickly. I will make a video if I do at some point
it is 5 months later, how is your system holding up?
So far so good :)
Ohhh, Algorithm, you rascal. Just when I tap out on Commonplacing you go, "*psst* watch this video about the lovechild of a commonplace book and a card catalogue. You know you wannna try it!" 😅
You should try it ;)
23:47 how do you manage to find the right place when you get to the point of having hundreds of cards? it seems like the time spent filing a card would go up and up.
I can’t speak from experience yet, but you will have a good understanding of where things are and you can narrow it down pretty quickly I think. This is also why having a project or projects in mind is so helpful. Having a specific goal or research project will limit choices and selection.
like and subscribed! the video is concise and helpful
Thanks for sharing, great tutorial.
I think in webpack.dev.js file, you're missing style-loader to allow webpack to inject style into DOM
or you. can keep mini-css-extract-plugin so that we can see .css file in the dist folder (and just fyi we dont need to add hmr options since it is automatically supported in wp5) Ref: webpack.js.org/plugins/mini-css-extract-plugin/#hot-module-reloading-hmr
This is certainly the most straight forward to the Antinet Zettelkasten method. More straight forward than Scott himself indeed. Thanks and cheers from Chile 🇨🇱
Only better video is Nicolas Gatien
Und, wie soll das mit 1000 oder 10000 Karteikarten gehen?
I appreciate your approach to Zettelkasten, especially analogue Zettelkasten, without getting into polemics about analogue vs digital approaches. I look forward to any future Zettelkasten videos you create.
I’ve watched a dozen or so videos and looked at about that many articles… they have all been difficult to understand and impractical. This video is awesome! Very practical and easy to understand! I feel like I can start a Zettelkasten system based on this video alone! Thank you so much!
@leeannclayton3718 glad I could help!
This video was super helpful
Glad I could help.
Could you send a link to the amazon box you feature in this video? I've searched and not found this exact one. Thank your for your time and this guide.
There are links in the video description
The book you recommend is not available in India. Is there a substitute?
Not that I know of. You might want to try finding a pdf of the book online or some digital form of it.
I have a question do you take notes as you read the book or do you finish the book then come back and take notes on what you remember?
I take not on an index card aka the “bib card” then after I read the book I make main cards based upon those notes on the bib card.
Very informative and easy to follow.. I know following Scot's book is overwhelming for beginner.. and for someone who just want to produce book or do research in certain topics, I don't need to follow some wikipedia codes or categories of discipline. I think your approach is very feasible because in the beginning we have some projects in mind that we want to research. Best of luck.. I wish you can update your video after you have couple of hundreds cards... I want to see where it goes...
I hope to make an updated video as well once I have outgrown the box I have now and have a significant amount of cards.
