Keishi Vault

This is my personal knowledge base built using the Zettelkasten method in Obsidian, automatically backed up with Obsidian Git.

About This Vault

This vault follows the Zettelkasten method of note-taking, which emphasizes:

• Atomic notes: Each note contains a single, focused idea
• Connection-driven structure: Notes are linked by concepts rather than rigid hierarchies
• Organic growth: The knowledge base evolves naturally through connections

Vault Structure

• Permanent Notes: Processed, linked notes representing clear concepts
• Literature/Reference Notes: Direct citations and references from source materials
• Fleeting Notes: Quick, temporary thoughts to be processed later
• Hub Notes: Connection points that link related permanent notes by topic

Workflow

My knowledge management follows this flow:

1. Capture: Record initial thoughts and information
2. Connect: Link new ideas to existing knowledge
3. Crystallize: Refine notes into clear, atomic concepts
4. Create: Use the network of knowledge to generate insights

Benefits of This Approach

• Encourages deeper understanding through personal reformulation
• Facilitates creative connections between seemingly unrelated ideas
• Supports high-quality knowledge encoding similar to Bloom's Taxonomy
• Works with (not against) how the brain naturally forms memories

Tools

• Obsidian for note management and visualization
• Obsidian Git for automated backups
