There were some interesting insights, yet it was a dreadful read. I think this unironically has to do with the author following the Zettelkasten method himself for writing this book...

100 pages in and still no ''How to take smart notes'' in a book called ''How to Take Smart Notes''. The book introduces a note-taking system (Zettelkasten), but doesn't give an example of what it's supposed to look like. Instead the author just keeps rambling about why you should use this method in a series of seemingly unrelated chapters that makes you wonder where exactly he's going with all of this
