Note-taking

Structuring notes, personal knowledge bases and turning notes into actions.

  • Organise digital files

    Designs a folder structure and file naming convention that fits how you work, plus a safe step-by-step cleanup plan and a short routine to keep files tidy. Use when finding files takes too long.

  • Structure messy notes

    Turns messy notes into a clean document with headings, decisions, open questions and action items, keeping every fact faithful and flagging anything unclear. Use after a call, lecture or brainstorm.

  • Design a personal knowledge system

    Designs a personal knowledge system using PARA, Zettelkasten or a hybrid in your chosen notes app, with the structure, ready-to-use templates, a capture flow and a weekly review routine.

  • Make reading notes

    Turns highlights from an article or book into atomic, linkable notes written as claims in plain words, with source references, link suggestions and prompts for the reader's own takeaways.
