> Get the right kind of music going, it's time to focus 😎 ## Brainstorming ### Topic %%What is the big idea you're thinking about? Why are you writing this? %% ### References %%Are there any existing notes, resources, or experiences that come to mind related to the topic? For each thing, why is it related and how can it be helpful? %% - [[USV Documentation]] for my current setup OG sources - [[Linking Your Thinking]] for the creativity aspect - [[Second Brain]] for the productivity aspect - [[Pipelines Pillars Vaults]] for the life management aspect - [Bryan Jenks](https://www.youtube.com/c/BryanJenksTech) and [Nicole van der Hoeven](https://www.youtube.com/@nicolevdh) for my templates and structures ### Brain Dump %% Write out any other thoughts that come to mind, then create a cognitive scaffolding that combines your references and brain dump. Break it down into branches and sub-ideas for further elaboration %% #### Why - [[#Understanding]] - [[#Creativity]] - [[#Productivity]] #### Process Learning is still not for creativity though? Like you can be creative, but the thing is that you are still trying to understand something that already exists. A lot of overlap but there are some small nuances. - Source - Organize - Approach - Output Although it does relate to life design and productivity, those are still better explained through life solar system. Maybe this is why there's no classification, which is though because rule of 3's aaa. What is a universal pattern amongst all of them - Capture/Source/Add/Input - Sources - The process of bringing it into our PKM system - Organize/Manage/Clarify - Definition: *structure/order* and **coordinate** - How are we *classifying* and **managing** this information - Classifying what we want to do with it and how - Process/Transform/Method/Approach/Distill - Distill works if you are extracting the essence of something. But: - Distilling learning doesn't sound right - Distilling insights kind of works? but it's not a quantitative thing - How are we transforming and working with this information to - Output, express, Create, product, result - The finished product? Okay now where does personal thoughts come into play? Just hard creativity? As scaffolding for learning? Where does life design come into play? Wouldn't it be all of the above? Where does remembering come into play? #### Existing frameworks [[ACE Framework]] intentions are to: - Understand - Focus - Act This is definitely universal, but it still doesn't cut it imo Biggest complaint is on focus, isn't something you can just say you want to do. I think the better play would be to tap into [[Being mode]]. So then would there be four main parts of PKM? i want to shoot myself Focus can be applied to understanding and action Another is STIR - Space - Time - Importance - Relatedness - Supposed to be ACE, the links between them all STIR is supposed to be the context in which we remember #### Understanding - Goal - For [[Self-learning]] - [[Wisdom]] - Why - engage in [[Participatory knowing]] to tap into [[Being mode]] so you can be in touch with nature - Practically applying this knowledge for others through a better character - Allows for ideal life design since you are better understanding who you want to be and could be? - How - Recording your [[Thinking]] - Connectedness through [[Note-making]] - [[Types of Knowing]] ##### Who - Self-learners - Students - [[Generalist]] - People pursuing [[Self-Actualization]] ##### Relations - Creativity since you need to be able to combine your personal knowledge with it - Productivity since you might have an end goal in mind to learn for school or a goal ##### Capture - Zettelkasten since [[Progression of idea originality]] ##### Organize - Zettelkasten parts - [[Literature notes]] - [[Conceptual notes|Permanent notes]] - [[Maps of Content (MOC)]] - [[Conceptual notes]] ##### Process - It's honestly a mix of both since you learn through conceptual understanding and by application depending on what you are doing - Conceptual [[Note-making]] - [[Synoptical reading]] ##### Express - Externally represented through our notes - Internal growth and understanding through periodic reviews? #### Creativity - [[Bottom-Up Thinking]] - [[Participatory knowing]] since its not objective - Goal - Become an [[Artist]] - Why - [[Artists amplify human condition]] - [[Creativity is a collective effort to discover and be spiritual]] - This is to develop [[Meaning]] - How - [[Idea Emergence]] - [[Content Creation]] ##### Who - Artists - Researchers ##### Relations - Learning since you need to know things before you can see hidden connections between them all - Productivity since that is what creative outputs are ##### Capture - [[Inputs]] - [[Fleeting Notes]] ##### Organize - [[Conceptual notes]] ##### Process - [[Brainstorms]] - [[Idea Emergence]] - [[Procedural Knowing]] ##### Express - Creative outputs - The types of connections #### Productivity - Goal - To effectively manage and do things with information - Why - Efficiency - [[Procedural Knowing]] - How - - [[Top-Down Thinking]] - Fundamental of [[CODE Method]] ##### Who - [[Knowledge work]] ##### Relations - Learning since that helps you optimize - Creativity since it's tied to yourself ##### Capture - [[Inputs]] - [[Meeting Notes]] ##### Organize - Structural organization in [[Top-Down Thinking|Architect Thinker]] fashion. You require structure since familiarity and order allows for efficiency - Classifying things via [[Note types]] - Retrievability ##### Process - [[Summarizing Content]] - [[Retrieving information from your notes]] ##### Express - Results and achievements - Action ## Organized Ideas %% A place to start your rough (or maybe even final) draft. What writing framework or checklist best works to guide you towards your ideal finished product? %% Ended up just putting into [[USV and Personal Knowledge Management]] ## Potential Outputs %% What can I use these ideas for? Content, new notes, etc. %% - Have this as basis of use cases/workflows in USV - Basis of video - Outlined process in [[My brainstorming workflow in action]]
