Types of notes

Three types of notes

  1. Fleeting Note: Raw, not distilled.
    • Following Dabi's advise, I will use my daily notes as my fleeting notes. I think it makes sense and reduces the friction.
  2. Literature Note: For articles, books, research. Should be written in your own words.
    • Phrase it in the way that you would phrase it
    • These are the notes that you will refer to and quote
    • This is the most detailed version of your mental model
    • I'll be looser with the need to summarise and put this in my own words. Sometimes the words that someone else used are just perfect.
  3. Permanent Note: The most distilled note in Zettelkasten
