Just like how books are not published from first draft, notes should have the same process.
With this in mind, evergreen notes should have the following properties:

- It is atomic.
- It enables you to develop further insight.
- As you develop more evergreen notes, more time is put on editing them rather than creating them.

To start writing an evergreen note, you could start with your [[id:3d1c0313-fa3d-4b18-b435-51d3837e3e2c][Fleeting notes]] and outline the main ideas.
An evergreen note does not have to be finished within one sitting.
In fact, it is preferred to build it incrementally, editing the note as you go developing insights.

Update the files for convention Apparently, the convention (at least starting from 2018) is to make the keywords and block names to be in lowercase as stated from one of the following discussions at https://orgmode.org/list/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/. The files was updated with a one liner of shell. However, this is Emacs and org-mode does have an API to let you do stuff in your config and interact with the documents internally so it is not an elegant solution in any way. 2021-04-01 16:08:15 +00:00			`#+title: Evergreen notes`

Update notes about notes The review for note-related topics is going to be reduced from this point because it's time to dedicate this month for learning a new skill to put this in use. 2021-05-05 16:55:04 +00:00			`#+date_modified: "2021-05-05 17:06:24 +08:00"`
