My FULL Obsidian Zettelkasten Workflow in 10 minutes

Do you have a recommendation for a note taking tablet that works well with this system?

Pretty annoying to spend 9 minutes looking at you talking to the camera and hardly any time actually looking at Obsidian. You offered almost no explanation on how the different types of notes are organized and didn’t even give an example of what your permanent note says about multitasking.

this is workflow?

Hey, thanks for the great video! I wanted to ask you how you then approach the division between large topic and atomic ideas within it. Because I'm sure that after consuming all that content (and generating own thoughts about it), you have a lot more to say than a screen's space worth on the multitasking-myth, which various subtopics inside that one. However, only if you have that one big bucket do you get the visual benefit of the graph links pointing you towards writing that permanent note. On the other hand, I totally agree with the atomic idea note philosophy - have always done it that way. So how do you approach that to merge the two - big bucket links' gravity pull and atomicity of single ideas? Thanks!

Great video, thank you. What is the brand model of highlighters you are using?

The Zettelkasten system can feel cumbersome and overwhelming for note-taking, especially when reading books. It often seems like more time is spent organizing notes than actually engaging with the content. With the ease of accessing information online in just 10-15 minutes, and the growing capabilities of AI to summarize knowledge, the need for such a detailed system is questionable. For those not regularly writing papers or books, a knowledge management system may take more time than it offers in future benefits.

I'm 33% into the book and starting to doubt if this suits someone not making research papers?
Like, i just want to learn lots of different things more efficiently. Things that interest me like hobbies. Does zettel make sense for that?

I'm sure there's much more to Zettlekasten. But I feel like this is enough. Gave me a solid ahah! moment where I can see exactly how the whole system works. Thanks!

You still didn’t show exactly how the linking process works!

so how do you retrieve it when you have 1000 notes?

Fantastic. Can you share your templates.

You are great man, thank you very much knowledge sharing!

If Permanent Notes are concepts and ideas independent of their original context, then how come there is linkage in the permanent notes while the channel said he put at least one link in the permanent notes🤔

linkage to literature notes? 🤔

I have a couple of questions:
1. Is there any way to sync with the file that Google Play Books generates with the Highlights in my Drive?
2. How do you connect your "literary notes" note with a section of your "reference notes" note? I see you have a "^0863a" and a "[...|reference]" in the edit mode. What is it?
Thanks a lot! I just started with Obsidian and your videos are a big help!

can you share your templates or did you already somewhere?

Watching your videos even multiple times is beneficial . thank you for the complete and yet simple explanation of the zettelkasten system , also thanks for the great insight you provided us about the atomic habits (multitasking myth) .

Finally, a video on zettelkasten and Obsidian that I understand. Thanks a million! You’re explanation on not starting from scratch makes it clear how amazing it is. 🎉

Thanks for the insights

I would love to see you do a hands on example of this in obsidian 😊

watched on 27 june

Danke!🙂

One of the clearest videos I’ve seen in a while. Well articulated!

Just wow, you explain it really in very simple way, thankss finally i can comprehend what should i know about this note taking system

Really great clear video!

"...one of such tools is Obsidian, which I've been using for nearly three years. But if you use something else, that's fine, as long as you can link to different notes. Also, bear in mind that this is just the way I do it. It's not the only way, and it might not even be the best way. Because the best way is whatever works for you."

What theme are you using

Hey Sergio, love your vids. I can't help notice that in this video your using a light theme. I like this one cam you let me know which one it is?

Привет! Спасибо за контент, на тебя ссылались блогеры из наших регионов. Интересно было послушать!

This video appeared just at the right time I am contemplating with my literature and references notes. Can I hope that you will made a walkthrough video how you turn your reference notes into literature notes and then into a permanent notes??? I can't wait for it 😊

What keyboard you got mate?

Thanks so much for this video as well as all the rest of them! You've really helped me get started with the whole Obsidian/Zettelkasten journey, so thank you, thank you for creating all the content you do!

Are you Brazillian?

Do you have your obsidian templates automated? Eg the chapters layout in your literature note?

Permanent notes sound pretty useless if they’re “directed towards an audience ignorant of the thoughts behind the text” aka out of context.

How to quickly transfer paper highlights to Obsidian ?

Where is the link to how to create the template for literature note and the other documentation like chapters within the book? thank you!

Hey, thanks for this great video! I am curious, how do you delete or clean out previous reference notes? The ReadWise references is piling up to a huge, overwhelming list of notes, and i was curious if you had thoughts on managing those? Thanks again.

Emacs org-mode is superior tbh, and extensible through packages. Whilst obsidian isn't FOSS.

This was an excellent video. Short and to the point.

Where's the most appropriate place/tag to put in late night deep conversations?

I think that this system would be to complicated (for me) and I would worry that I’d spend to much time inside the notes app tending to my notes instead of writing my own things

The only thing I struggle with Zettelkasten is writing short and concise notes. For example, if I have some critiques about a technique for doing X, I'll create a note called "Critiques on Doing X with Y". Most often then not I'll write up to 10 points with through explanation on why I think the way I think. I try to break them up but simply can't find a way I feel satisfied...

Such a concise and insightful breakdown with the mix of conceptual teaching and showcasing your own personal practices to help others get started with their own zettelkasten notes. I'm going to add it to my email course until I document my own workflow 😅
