Why I love writing about Knowledge Management
The skill of knowing how to manage your data and knowledge files, is something that I think everyone should have. To what degree I think changes based on what areas of knowledge you have. In addition the level would be based on the complexity of what you need for what success looks like in your life.
To me as a multidisciplinary person I found I needed a robust system to manage my multiple interests, let alone the vast content ecosystem I make blogs/videos/podcasts within.
At this point I have around 740 blog posts on my website, and quite a chunk of them are about PKM or what I call my PIOS Omni-Brain.
Over the last decade my needs for task management, project management, and finally knowledge management have increase 10 fold. This leading me to strive to find the best “10X PKM tool”, and personally I’ve settled on Obsidian. After being in Notion for half a decade I felt it failed me, and the bugginess was unbearable.
I have a list of over 100 tools here that (I checked out most of them) https://polytools.blog/tag/knowledge-management/, if you want to find one for yourself.
In obsidian I was able to create a very versatile setup, that allows me to take my note-taking to the next level, save everything locally, add any plugins I think are helpful (it has the most plugins out of any tool), and more.
With the journals plugin on the top right, I can click on any day/week/month/quarter/year and do my note right then and there. Planning out my year and life far more effectively, my PIOS folder structure on the left helping to keep things organized, etc.
There are a lot of things I could tell you and teach you about Knowledge Management, which is why I created this post, so that you could go check out the newsletter I just created called “The PIOS Update”. It was made to send out any new posts about the PIOS, to help you figure out how to implement it in your own life, and since it is tool agnostic (unlike some other methodologies) you can put it into your tool of choice!
