In this video, I explain how I use Obsidian to create book notes. I show how I use Readwise to capture highlights into my Obsidian database and take you through my workflow for crafting a book summary by creating atomic notes. I will also explain the concepts of Maps of Content (MOCs), the idea of notemaking, and the importance of creating a filter to what you capture. ⏱ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - Intro 01:07 - Installing Readwise 02:11 - Filling out the Book Summary and Creating Atomic Notes 29:45 - Creating Drawings with Excalidraw 36:30 - Explaining Maps of Content (MOCs) Get the Book Summary Template Yourself: https://aidanhelfant.gumroad.com/l/jlcpz Readwise CS for Headings: https://blog.readwise.io/add-chapters-to-highlights/ MY FREE ONLINE COURSES: 🚀3 Days to Lecture Notetaking Mastery in Obsidian: https://course.aidanhelfant.com/3daystolecturenotetakingmastery 🔗Unlock Your Genius With Linked Book Notetaking: https://www.aidanhelfant.com/linked-book-notetaking/ MY ONLINE COURSES: 📚The Art Of Linked Reading: https://www.aidanhelfant.com/learn-the-art-of-linked-reading-in-3-weeks/ 🎓Obsidian University: Your Secret Weapon at School: https://shop.johnmavrick.com/obsidian-university MY FAVORITE THINGS: 📚How I choose the next book to read (Shortform): Shortform.com/aidanhelfant 🗞️How I take notes highlights on everything: (Reader): https://readwise.io/read 💡How I remember what I read (Readwise): https://readwise.io/aidanhelfant/ 🎧How I listen to books (Audible Plus): https://amzn.to/3CQ0Wi9 🚀How I organize my content creation in Notion: https://gumroad.com/a/70722675/XfxcEw JOIN THE JOURNEY: 🌎Check out my Blogging Website: https://www.aidanhelfant.com/ ✉️Subscribe to my Email Newsletter: https://www.aidanhelfant.com/newsletter/ 🌻Check out my published Obsidian vault: https://publish.obsidian.md/aidanhelfant 🎙️Check out my Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/3ZeS9QuqYGGS91YNl7cNf0 🐦Check out my Twitter: https://twitter.com/AidanHelfant PS: Some of the links shown above are Affiliate Links and I do receive a commission for purchases 🤪 My Amazing Editors for Videos: Dan Kinneth Torres: https://www.upwork.com/nx/wm/workroom/29029638/overview
