My Zettlekasten is a combination of multiple “variants” of the Zettlekasten, which I think is the key to a working system. Don’t try to copy someone’s system directly but build your own system and let it grow natrually.
In my system, there are main “bins” for notes:
- The Inbox is where all new notes go until they’re fleshed out
- The Reference is where notes that contain information from other sources (Reddit, Books, Videos, etc) are stored
- The Archive is for my own personal thoughts
