Notes Against Note-Taking Systems

sashachapin.substack.com/p/notes-against-note-taking-systems

Kind of controversial take on note taking systems. I can relate though, because i was lost in a burden of creating perfect knowledge management system for a long time without creating any knowledge. Simplest approach with commonplace notebook is what working for me now.
Comments are also useful.

Getting lost in your knowledge management system is a fantastic way to avoid creating things.
Most heart-stopping writing comes from synthesizing the previously unarticulated in the moment. Rather than reaching for your database, try channeling what’s in the air at this very second. These read/write errors are what we call originality.
Leonardo da Vinci kept all of his notes in one big book. If he liked something he put it down. This is known as a commonplace book, and it is about how detailed your note-taking system should be unless you plan on thinking more elaborately than Leonardo da Vinci.
Shun the useless adoption of the aesthetic of the useful. When something can be like work or like play, never make it work.
