Data is cold. Emotions are warm.
You don’t want a cold life. You want a cozy one.
Here, I explain how you can use your PKM to move from one to the other.
What Do You Want In Life?
You want to feel good.
A life of fulfillment.
In one word: happiness.
What’s Your PKM’s Essential Goal?
Today, you’re impacted by data.
Transforming it into positive emotions is the only goal of your PKM.
That’s why I call it e-PKM.
What’s the Process to Transform Your PKM into an e-PKM?
For many years I’ve followed this process:
- Writing
- Thinking
- Learning
- Understanding
- Growing
- Fulfillment
- Happiness
How Do You Move from Cold to Warm?
As you can see, the process takes you from a cold area (4 first stages) to a warm one (3 last stages).
That’s how you should create an e-PKM.
The Right Approach to Make Your PKM Become an e-PKM
Don’t focus on data.
It’s nonsense just think about managing data, organizing things, and learning complex systems if it’s not to achieve the essential goal of any human being: happiness.
The One and Only Question You Should Ask Yourself
When using, building, or thinking about your PKM, this is the only question you should ask yourself all the time:
Is this step moving me closer to happiness?
Takeaways
- Use your systems to grow.
- Move your PKM to an e-PKM.
- By doing that, you’ll achieve the only goal you want to accomplish in life: happiness.
