Completely agree, this isn't to help for an essay but a whole structure to becoming smarter. I'm applying this to Blockchain with the goal of creating a business.
This is the best detailed description of Zettelkasten I've seen, using Notion's features so very well. Thank you for the effort you've obviously put into this and your generosity in sharing.
This is not a “by-the-book” "Zettelkasten; I utilize the webbed-approach and hierarchy blueprint loosely to aid queries. A molding of my old system, of which is substantial, and this new framework (which is proving to be very useful). I’m bound to make more changes in the future to cater new needs. If you want to create your own system that works for you, I recommend following the same "webbed" approach (smart tagging and relating) over strict hierarchy. Any program with backlinking can be used. Notion is just my go-to. I was a bit fearful to make this considering this method has a lot of passionate followers, which is why I was scared of this title: "How To Implement Zettelkasten Inside Notion." Rather I chose: "Zettelkasten In Notion & How I Use Its Principles." If there are any formulas or functions here you'd like me to go over in the future let me know!
For anyone interested: The word “Zettelkasten” is pronounced as something like “tsaetteulkarsten” in German (use English pronunciation). In German, we pronounce “a” as in “car” and “z” as tse. And after the double “t” (“tt”) follows a short break. Idk if this is helpful, I just noticed how barely anyone non-german uses the original pronunciation :)
Best explanation I have heard so far. Simply great! Can't tell you how many sources I have been to and after a lot of frustration for days, finally I found this. THANK YOU SO MUCH
your are a genius! not because you understand or know how to do the sistem, but because you are the only one that know how to explain it! thanks so much
Red, you're actually a Jedi ! This is the most valuable explanation of the Zettelkasten system, and you implement this into Notion is just... Wow ! Thanks for sharing ! And many thanks 'cause you push us to go further and further in mastering Notion. 🙏
Wow I love how you used actual Luhmann notes to show this, it makes it really easy to follow the logic. Thank you for making this video!! Note to anyone watching this video: watch from beginning to end
Red great job on this! I'm reading how to take smart notes right now and I was looking forward to seeing people implement the techniques inside of Notion now that we have better backlinks. Thank you for being so thorough and concise! Great stuff!!
Thank you, this seems like a great approach to Zettlekasten and has so much potential. I think I would just need to rewatch it few times but more slowly since it's a bit hard to follow.
@@RedGregory Thank you for introducing me (at least) to the zettelkasten method. Is there anyway you could do a video on how you use this system on a sample note. Thanking you
Seriously you are a legend. Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this! I'm definitely using the heck out of the information in this! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Happy I found this video and your channel :) Zettelkasten is a new fascination of mine, and you did a marvelous job summing up the key functions, but sharing your Notion setup as well. THANKS!
Pro: One of the most direct, objective and precise explanations about Zettelkasten, applied modernly. Congrats, OP. Con: Very complex implementation in Notion, since Notion is not its own tool, since there are its own applications like Zkn3, The Archive, Obsidian etc. Suggestion: As Notion now supports backlinks, just add subpages (+) to create the hierarchy of parent and child notes. Best in, IMO, Roam Research, Remote, Obsidian, note-taking apps next gen.
Sidnei Neves thanks! I actually find Notion less complex for my work, but that may be because I’m already familiar and can relate other things in my workspace. But I totally get what you’re saying. This is how I use Zettelkasten principles for my own system.
Thank you for the template!!! I have been toying with the idea of a zettelkasten for the past 5 or 6 months or so. But honestly, I just don't "get it" yet. I would like to see how you are adding to your zettels from articles and/or books. Thanks for your insight 👍🏼
If note doesn’t relate to any other note, I start a new thought and go from there. I divide each note card by context, and add continuation/sub notes within it. Citing book and pages within body of notes. Some people like making one page with the book’s title at the top and sub pages as chapters
Thanks for the tips. Like you said in the video, I will be starting with a simple version to get the hang of it and then in a few months probably add in some components after I see a few more examples from kind people like yourself on YT 🙂
Maybe I am too dumb since I watched the video over and over again. I do like this contextual deployment and template! Because of this video, I clicked the subscribe button. Do enjoy these contents.
No! You're fine. I think a lot of people are in the same confusion boat. It's not you. I may have missed the mark on this one. I always try my best to simplify. Thanks for the sub!
@@RedGregory Thank you so much for your quick reply! Right now, I am watching all of your videos (25 +) and try to fully grasp your mind. Thank you again for sharing these to us! :)
Your implementation of Zettelkasten is purely amazing but as a markdown beginner (and an ordinary MS Office user) myself I still find it quite overwhelming, especially as I decided to use Obsidian rather than Notion. I'll find a way. Thank you for the detailed video!
I find this, even though I dont really understand all of the vocabulary (since I'm new to Notion perhaps?), very soothing. Perhaps my brain understood how it should work but dont really do.
Hello friend! You're not alone with confusion. I did not explained everything as well as I should have as you can see in other comments, so that's on me.
Thanks Red for the sincere and articulated share - like how you kept open perspective, I was thinking in parallel how his original style was unique to his personality - very rigid to even create such a system - the energy for those with less rigid personalities now possible with backlinking in Notion or other software means this is truly the age of 2nd brain and the power that comes from that. For those, perhaps like myself with often over-expanded thinking where I lose ideas since my notes were never backlinked, this is such an exciting time to 'bring it all together' but also then get more practical and realistic as the scope can be seen from afar (and visualised in many systems like Roam and Obsidian) so much fun - thanks
Holly molly, you have provided lots of info and instruction. Thank you so much! Now, I will have to translate this info to RemNote, and I guess I will be ready to move on to further research in note-taking.
Very good video of the concept and the technical application. I had just reading "How to Take Smart Notes" about zettelkasten (book renamed it to slip-notes). Generally I've used OneNote for the last 2 years and was looking for potential software for this and had learned about notion. Notion looks pretty technically capable since you got some kind of scripts at 8:18, so I may have to look into that as well. If I end up using notion in the future I doubt I could do is it as detailed as you. Thank you for the video I found it very helpful, I've duplicated your example for future reference as I learn Notion. Have a good one
I really appreciate this video, and it is ingenious how you've managed to create these templates! I am currently finding a way to organise my notes on Notion, and I am struggling a lot! I tried using 2nd brain templates from other TH-camrs including from this one, and all just seem too complicated, but I'm still keen on the rationale on why it is being used. After finding it overwhelming, I looked for Zettelkasten videos and they too are quite complicated. I have a very very bad relationship with perfectionism, always seeking the one that works best, and I'm not really a creative guy and I tend to outsource towards other people's ideas/templates. Plus I work as a pharmacist and I want to keep my knowledge base on Notion organised with any of these methods. Do you or anyone else have any tips please?
I'm in exactly the same boat! Wanting this "web-of-ideas" approach without having to figure out how to create with equations such as I've only seen in the most complex Excel sheets. As a graphic designer this makes my brain melt. :( HOWEVER, for those of us who want to think more visually, I think Red's idea of file cabinets makes a lot of sense, check out their other video on that, because it rolls up individual topics into other larger categories, rather than having to have a big mess of tags that are inter-related but still distinct. Try to look past the programmer jargon (no offense, seriously!) and think about where a particular piece of info might fit in your own mental web and how you'd arrive there, and you can kind of "back in" to this structure. In my mind it's like Minority Report. :)
Hi, Red. Above all, I would like to thank you for the work you are creating! I'm loving your approach; so neat and productive. I've just started learning how to work with Notion and I have a question about your "the.LIBRARY" template: How could I add the "graphic accents" (I write in Spanish in Notion) and numbers to avoid (one of the titles has a date as part of it) appearing as part of the author's name or title? Is it possible to add capitals in the formula for proper nouns or did you formulate it without them so it would be more practical? Thank you so much!
Revising Red, I wonder is your numbering system offering any value to you? Since you have to pause and first understand your numbering system - vs Obsidian idea or Roam where you can visually see the relationship? I see value in knowing how many notes follow a strand ... interesting stuff. Here's an concept to add which I'm setting up - x.y.z as usual distance dimention attributes to ideas, then 't' as a time attribute which like the universe cuts through space and why there is no time outside of a 3-dimsional reality
One tip is to explain the system the share the template for notion. The reach users better to avoid too much technical detail on the tool. The more technical audience can figure things out anyway. Focus on use cases and templates and much simpler..
You’re right. My plan was to explain the system at the beginning and then how the backend of my personal system works. My channel focuses on the technical end, but I think for a video like this, I should have had a tour of my workspace and left it at that honestly.
thanks alot for your videos on various productivity note taking system.. i found your channel while searching for remote.. please make more detailed videos on zettelkasten method in remote...
Highest Appreciations and Thank You for the co-creation of the Universe! Would you please, pretty please, make a new video on this topic, and possibly a new template - because I am very positive that your method has been refined quite a bit, and in a new video you would most likely be able to explain it much more simply and clearly - and possibly even do a different template for it - highly appreciated in advance!
This video is the reason why I talk slowly and clearly now. But I will say, I still use this template. I may go over it again, but I'm afraid people still may not be into it.
Stapmania 🙏 😳 sorry about. My intentions are always to simplify complex ideas. I’ll admit, I missed the mark on this one. Hope you get some inspiration regardless!
Do you have a solution for the following problem: the "Zettelkasten" is smething which you build trough your whole life, and with the independence to notion there is a small danger that they have control about that and when notion doesnt exist than also the kasten doesnt exist more. Is there some backup function or something?
Hey Red, do you have tips on naming the.TAGS ? I'm a researcher, and I want to apply this method to organize whatever I read so that I could come back and use it for later. Is it okay to have a super long list of TAGS? because I think that's what's going to happen to me. I study various topics in the Operations Management field, so my topics will be vast: from electric vehicles to optimization to inventory management.
very good video. I am attempting to use Zettelkasten in Obsidian, but I am wondering if I am making any REAL progress, or am i just feeding the Personal Knowledge Management? I love that Obsidian now has aliases so [[Tony Robbins, Anthony Robbins]] will work on the same card. I wonder if Notion does that? If Notion had a random card reminder kind of like Anki, i would consider using it for more than just databases.
(About formulas) Hello Red! What an amazing (and complicated) tutorial! I'm watching it several times over to try to understand. I'm struggling most with the code. I liked what you had done with the Time table, where you had added the seasons in. I'd like to do the same for Bronze Age and Golden Age etc, and preferably link them to continent as well as these ages didn't start at the same time everywhere, but I cannot figure out how. I'd like for it to understand that if the age is between 1700 and 500 BC , and if it is linked to the location relation and populated with Norway, that the formula would show "Bronze age". If it is too complicated to add the location, even just the time 500-1700BC=Bronze age would be nice! Could you help me break down the formula so I can learn how to do this? Or if anyone else knows? Thanks!
This video is exceedingly well made. Thank you! I was wondering if you could show us how you integrate Zettelkasten with your PARA approach. Also, do you do consultations? I would love it if you could help me organise my notes and life in Notion. Please let me know if this sounds like something for you. :)
Red, thank you for your approach, very useful for me. I have a question about starting a stream of thoughts. What's numeration rules for starts throughs? I mean zettels with start type (ex. 1.0 ::: Unification in general, 2.0 ::: Bttle. Gettysburg) Seems like, if I want continue an investigation of something, I must follow "1.1 ::: Some Title". But if I found a new additional info about, I should create the Supplementary card from an appropriate source. I understand this approach flexible (own life - own rules 😁), but I'm interesting what you think about. One more example please)
Hello good afternoon! I have one question in the view for the time, in the formula it comes: cont or sub, but what to do if one specific page is neither but the starting thought? In the Type property I have try some possibilities but I only get cont or sub, but I don’t get Start. Could you help me to know what to do? Thank you! Very good your TH-cam channel 👍
hi , regarding to the insert.BOOK portion 11:54. are you able to do - title of the book, LASTNAME_FIRSTNAME, so that you can sort from the first column titles in your the.LIBRARY database?
Zettelkasten is a brilliant invention. Did you ever consider what happens with your collection of knowledge if the software (not just notion ... any software) is corrupted. Is there any way to to retrieve it from Notion
Hi Red, there is a very easy formula to get the minute/second for the note: formatDate(prop("Created Field Name"), "YYYYMMDDHHmm") Let me know if it works for you! :) (it should xD)
I am a student and I really want to learn how to use this method. But this video was hard to understand because I am super new to Notion. Where should I start? there is another video? what do you suggest?
Yea, turning a personal system into a template didn’t really work here. I should have kept it to a tour. I don’t aim to be confusing. I’m sorry about that. I’ve been making more universal templates these days.
@@RedGregory thanks 🙏 for timely correspondence, I’m also using Notion for a year now. It’s really convenient and productive. It’s requested you make small videos having a length less than 10 minutes. It’ll help to grab and feed the information in our mind. Thanks again. Waiting for more awesome videos
Noted. It’s hard to make templates in 10 minutes, but I do have a website for bite sized tutorials and tips for Notion and other programs too. Thanks for watching 🤗
@@RedGregory IMHO, your video was perfect and just what I was looking for! It is packed with useful information. Congratulations and thank you so much!

In the Type property I have try some possibilities but I only get cont or sub, but I don’t get Start. Could you help me to know what to do? Thank you! Very good your TH-cam channel 👍
Title is "number of note ::: name of note"
@@RedGregory thank you very much 👍👍👍👍👍
Do we have to put in last and next entry points manually every time create a new note?
hi , regarding to the insert.BOOK portion 11:54. are you able to do - title of the book, LASTNAME_FIRSTNAME, so that you can sort from the first column titles in your the.LIBRARY database?
you're insane! liked and subscribed!
I was very surprised to see that you study at the Uni Bielefeld, because I want to go there to.
Hello, thanks for making this video. I am wondering how do you lay out your cards in notion if you have to use them to generate a literature?
Zettelkasten is a brilliant invention. Did you ever consider what happens with your collection of knowledge if the software (not just notion ... any software) is corrupted. Is there any way to to retrieve it from Notion
Muchas, muchas gracias
Thank you
thank you
Hi Red, there is a very easy formula to get the minute/second for the note:
formatDate(prop("Created Field Name"), "YYYYMMDDHHmm")
Let me know if it works for you! :) (it should xD)
That only goes to minutes. Cool use of formatting!
@@RedGregory my bad! you could add ss at the end but apparently, Notion doesn't track seconds for some reason.
Good one. Had to revisit since found it a little tough to follow.
That seems to be the consensus for others as well. Thank you for letting me know. I'll try to slow it down and explain myself better in the future.

What do you think of the Dewy Decimal or Johnny Decimal systems?
How did she create that relationship "tag(s)"? just beyond me to understand
Can't get anything
First again! Good video as always!
Pedro Fernandez Ruiz 🤩🤩
I am a student and I really want to learn how to use this method. But this video was hard to understand because I am super new to Notion. Where should I start? there is another video? what do you suggest?
@@Productimothy thanks bro
❤
Very nice content. Very interesting person. Where we can find more informations about you..🤔🤔
So confusing but I appreciate your efforts
Yea, turning a personal system into a template didn’t really work here. I should have kept it to a tour. I don’t aim to be confusing. I’m sorry about that. I’ve been making more universal templates these days.
@@RedGregory thanks 🙏 for timely correspondence, I’m also using Notion for a year now. It’s really convenient and productive. It’s requested you make small videos having a length less than 10 minutes. It’ll help to grab and feed the information in our mind. Thanks again. Waiting for more awesome videos
Noted. It’s hard to make templates in 10 minutes, but I do have a website for bite sized tutorials and tips for Notion and other programs too. Thanks for watching 🤗
@@RedGregory IMHO, your video was perfect and just what I was looking for! It is packed with useful information. Congratulations and thank you so much!
Can someone tell me the use of timestamps as the of the zettels? I'm thinking about it and i can't see why
Over time if two notes have the same title, you can differentiate between them.
@@RedGregory Thank you!
I have been using Notion for a year, but after watching this video, I think I have never used the real Notion.
Too difficult for me
You sound a little like Winona Ryder.
I keep getting lost after 1 minute into ZK videos. Maybe ZK is not for me :(
how do you deal with the privacy issues of notion? why do you still use it?
All this because Notion doesnt have a web like Obsidian!! Your implementation is logical but it feels like a crutch in a time where Obsidian exists
Hey ! thanks a lot for this !! it's quite dense, could you give us your template or access to your page please ? :)
Link in description.
wow, it sounds great but you lost me....and not even too far in
