Deep dives

The PKM Stack: Managing Information and Ideas

The PKM stack is a hierarchical approach to personal knowledge management. At the bottom level is the information, which includes the stuff to keep and archive. It's important to be intentional about the information we allow into our lives and decide what is valuable. The next level is ideas, which require development. This is where we take the information we have and generate new concepts, thoughts, and connections. Ideas serve as the bridge between information and actions. Finally, at the top level are actions, which include tasks, projects, and the things we actually do. The PKM stack highlights the importance of managing and harnessing information and ideas to drive meaningful action and productivity.
