Pile of Indexcards

Same rules with indexcard are applied for the fieldnote.

• Chronological order : Write everything in order it emerges. Life, work, complicated idea, simple idea.
  
• Four Icons : Record, Discovery, GTD, and Reference.
  
• Time stamp : I put date stamp on top of every page with rubber stamp. Time stamp is made sometimes. I interpolate time when I copy to indexcard. Again, accuracy is not so important. Rather, uniqueness is a key to define absolute name.
  

The fieldnote is temporal. Later, I copy almost all topics to indexcard. A check-mark beside topics with pigment pen means "copied to indexcard". Simple GTDs (to-dos) are processed in the fieldnote without copying to indexcard.

The picture above was taken five months ago according to the date stamp. After five months later, now, I still use exactly same writing format. It may be comfort to me.

# The four icons are useful for anything. I use them for memo on reading book, too.
