I'm so excited to see a new video. You are the only Zettlekasten UA-camr who has such an intimate knowledge of the source - the analogue slipbox. I have been using Obsidian for years but never really understood what a Zettlekasten was or how it was supposed to work before I discovered your channel. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Tony, great stuff. I’ve tried registering for the free vault a few times today and haven’t received the email (I’ve checked in spam etc) Would it be possible to check the automation as I tried registering a few times over the past 5hrs and haven’t received anything.

@@theodrak Hey friend, sorry about that. I fixed the issue so if you want to try again you'll receive the download in your inbox. Thanks for the heads up!
I forced myself to stay away from 'systems' and 'frameworks' and forced myself to write a "mission" note that stated my objective. Within this note, I set out why I needed to make notes and also devised a structure and method that worked specifically for my mission. Sometimes, in our eagerness to follow a system, we lose sight of the problem that the system is trying to fix, and lose our ability to appreciate that the system's problem might not be our problem.
Thank you! That's it, I feel that complicated folder structure and following the rules of "ideal" graph get me slower, and here is the right explanation.
folders (hierarchy) make an assumption about how things are grouped/filtered. Tags remove the assumption that b1, b2, b3 always sit under A. Use Tags for grouping maybe folders for types or simple persistent collections
Thanks for this great video Simplicity beats the most sophisticated and modern tool’s every time in my opinion The question I’m asking myself is do I want to learn the concept or do I want learn how to use a tool? I thought a lot about if the Zettelkasten technique can be used in exam scenarios like college or university exams Maybe there have to be some adaptations here and there

Im new to your channel and you have a couple of real good high value quality videos. This video however is basically just an ad for your course. Atleast, inform the viewer prior to clicking the video that its content is an ad, instead of camuflaging it among other videos, some which actually provide value.
Hey friend, thanks for the comment. This video is not an ad for my course nor was I attempting to camouflage it as one. The mention of my course is just an added call to action which is why I left it at the end where viewership usually drops off. In most of my videos I offer similar calls to action for my free offerings which also are not ads. Thanks for watching anyway and I hope you can still get value out of the 95% of my content that is not promotional.
@TonyRamella I really do, thanks. Have watched and liked all I have seen so far with a thumbs up. Alot of you videos are thought-provoking and an original way to look at note taking. Keep it up. I am going to subscribe to you, both to support but also because I feel that you think outside the box and provide some practical suggestions that will help all sorts of people from students to writers to academics and researchers, in which the latter category I fall into. You are so right about the fact that forced engagement with material to produce concise notes is a very powerful thing. Both for recall and understanding then later for connecting the dots to a bigger plot.

@@cfsdocbrown thank you for the kind words my friend. I’m glad I could help!

So where can I find the original source of Prof. Luhmann that shown on your video?

I have folders but no subfolders. I think that's a sweet spot

I use no tags, a folder for pictures,over 1300 files, just links and a home page. That’s it. Works wonderfully.
This is the way
Is this going to work?
