Zettelkasten Note Creation

Create atomic, self-contained, interconnected notes

---

Core Principles

1. Atomicity

• One idea per note
• If you can split it, split it
• Note should be about ONE concept

2. Self-Contained

• Note must be understandable without context
• Include enough background information
• Reader shouldn't need to read other notes first

3. Connectivity

• Link to related notes with [[wikilinks]]
• Explain the relationship in the link
• Build a knowledge network
