# Why solopreneurs are missing out when not taking or making notes and using PKM

- They miss opportunities for personal and business development
- They fail to think/plan ahead, while PKM would enable them to
- They don't have an external space to think in a structured way
- If they have excellent documentation skills, then they can be efficient on projects, but they fail to optimize their own trajectory
- ...

Simply said, they're missing out. Taking notes helps a ton to organize your thoughts, be strategic about the future, be more realistic/grateful about the past, and be focused on what needs to be done now/next.

The first challenge is for them to realize that there are [[Better ways]]. They could clearly document and articulate their goals, the vision they have for their future and their company's. They could [[think about milestones]] for the next 3/5/10 years. They could take daily notes and track their progress. They could regularly look back, identify issues and improve over time. They could more quickly realize when they are falling for the [[Sunk cost fallacy]].

Personal note: [ ] I could help raise awareness about this situation, communicate more about this

The second challenge is for them to get started with Personal Knowledge Management, note-taking, and note-making. Not only get started but efficiently so.

Personal note: [ ] I could communicate more around the relevance of the [Obsidian Starter Kit](https://obsidianstarterkit.com) for entrepreneurs.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
