In this video, I talk about how the daily note-taking habit made Niklas Luhmann such a prolific, productive writer. Luhmann wrote more than 40 books and nearly 700 academic articles in his life. The secret to his productivity is his unique knowledge management system called Zettelkasten. He made notes every time he read a book or article, and when he was about to write, all he had to do was just went through his notes, put them in a logical order and rewrite it in a coherent way. This reminds me of the process of building LEGO as well as "mise en place" in cooking. In LEGO, each brick is like a note. And we use the bricks (notes) to build something bigger (book/article/video). In cooking, each ingredient is like a note. And we use the ingredients (notes) to cook a meal (book/article/video). So, trying to write an article without notes is like trying to cook something without enough ingredients. As a result, you experience writer's block. This is why making notes is important!
