- [Learn Log] Building structures and routines for task management and quick retrieval of notes from past projects
This learning log is based on Ramses’ helpful template-
My goal
- To consistently manage tasks in Logseq and structure my project and learning notes in a way that scales, makes them easily retrievable, is consistent yet not constraining.
- Explanation
- I gain a lot of knowledge from the projects I do, but the details I forget with time or are somewhere I can never find them again. This is true for courses I take, or terminal commands I use and take notes on. A system that prevents this will have huge personal value for me as I will need to re-learn (or look up) much less when re-visiting activities I have undertaken before.
- Task management appears to work much better for me when it’s in the same place as the execution of that task: Logseq. I need to build a routine for this I can still follow with my eyes closed.
-
What I want to build with simple queries
- Overviews of concepts that I learned during a course and took notes on in Logseq.
- Create an overview of terminal commands that I have used before
- A task management system that lists todo’s per project
-
What I want to build with advanced queries
- Create queries that are re-usable for any project or interest and list TODO’s that link to that project
- Query project tasks into an overview that shows the stage of the project I am in, which tasks are upcoming.
-
My learning plan
- To be filled in
-
What is my target performance level?
- What is good enough?
- A consistent TODO management system and knowing how I should structure my notes to make them easy to query.
- Creating queries with specific conditions while having some some beginner skills of modifying the specifics of how the results are presented
-
What are critical tools?
- What tools do I need every time I want to learn theory or practice applying it?
- Logseq desktop app
Cheat sheet for simple queries
Logseq documentation on advanced queries
-
What are my learning resources?
- What are my primary sources of information about this skill?
- Simples queries
- Advanced queries
- Other/both
- Queries channel on Discord
- Unofficial Logseq documentation on queries
- Logseq database schema
- Tech with Ed video: Logseq - Creating a Reading List with Templates, Page Properties and Queries
-
How will I create feedback loops for myself?
- Here I’ll think of ways to practice so I’ll challenge myself.
- Re-creating queries of others and seeing if they work.
Queries channel on Discord for immediate help and to prevent wasting time while stuck
-
What are my potential barriers to practice?
- Think high pre-practice effort, distractions, emotional blockers.
- Not planning ahead and consequently running out of day before completing practice
- Exhaustion due to bad sleep
- Other projects getting in the way
- Healthy habits like walking and sports that I cannot/should not drop, taking up time
- Global warming/sickening heat
-
How long will my learning project take?
- Until [[July 31st, 2022]]
-
How much time am I going to spend learning and practicing deliberately each week?
- Every day I’m going spend 1 hour in total, split out by:
- 30 minutes of watching/reading and taking notes
- 30 minutes of applying what I learned
-
When am I going to study or practice each day?
- In the morning at 11:45
- In the afternoon at 17:00
