My Current Definition of the Zettelkasten Method

The Zettelkasten is an integrated thinking environment, that feeds on the notes you are taking to build itself up. The Zettelkasten Method is a system of principles and best practices to transform your note-taking habits into a constant improvement of your thinking and your personal integrated thinking environment.

    I've found my (1) one-line definition and (2) second order explicitation, at the top of my Zettelkasten main note:

    (1)
    "Zettelkasten is a personal practice for learning, thinking, and finally accomplish something valuable from thought and knowledge developed during the process"

    (2)

    "I define Zettelkasten as the thinking system, of which the author himself is a part, which is set up thanks to a framework centered on the concept of Slip Box, conceived, built and used with the aim of exercising thinking, developing knowledge and producing value from it."

    I've spent very much time to refine it during the almost three years from the discovery of this world :-)
