How to Take Smart Notes: One Simple Technique to Boost Writing, Learning and Thinking – for Students, Academics and Nonfiction Book Writers by Sönke Ahrens
3.0
- I picked up this book to improve my current note taking system based on reviews I had read over the internet, and especially because its premise is built upon something I have realized overtime turns out to be crucial. It has to be simple.
- I have yet to put it in practice so I can’t really say about the Zettelkasten method, but I found the book a bit too repetitive to my taste. I think their concepts and its benefits could have been summarized by quite a lot considering nothing that was mentioned struck me as something unreasonably complex.
- Next step is to incorporate those learnings into something actionable that could be adapted to my existing workflow.
