PKM, particularly Zettelkasten, helps capture, wrestle with, and translate this spirit into something useful.

His Zettelkasten revealed his disinterest in writing about it publicly, despite initial enthusiasm.

ADVICE

Overcoming PKM Paralysis

Address PKM paralysis by expressing your gathered information.
