Balancing the demands of a full-time job, a growing family of two boys and a wife, and a desire to fulfil his creative potential, King sought out effective strategies to streamline his content production. After experimenting with various methods, he stumbled upon the zettelkasten system, delving deep into Niklas Luhmann's original paper and distilling its complex principles into practical strategies.
