Zettelkasten's Order vs. Chaos Tradeoff (Why You Shouldn't Always Choose The Zettelkasten "Method")

Описание: Welcome to the analog war room. This is where I outthink, outwrite, and outearn—using nothing but analog tools. In this video, I break down my minimalist desk setup, powered by pen and paper—not bloated apps like Obsidian or the overhyped newcomer, Kortex. You’ll see exactly how I generate real revenue each month and why handwritten systems crush digital gimmicks when it comes to deep thinking and focused execution. I’ll also give you a glimpse into my analog Zettelkasten and the methods I use to organize intellectual chaos into clarity. Stick around for a first look at my free course textbook—and if you’re done playing in the shallow end, hit subscribe.
