This is kind of fascinating in a way. I've gone down the pipeline of Evernote >> Notion and now Obsidian. I got into PKIM via Tiago Forte, then took August Bradley's course. I use Notion for a general purpose wiki, task/project and as a content management system plus it helps in all manner of IT and information handling scenarios. Ultimately, now I'm at Obsidian and thinking I really don't want to end up in some other online platform that controls my data and lacks privacy.
Great insight. I'm using Obsidian most of the time as well.
thanks very insightful subbed

Audio will be better on the next one I promise ;)
This looks super useful, but as someone who is neurodivergent with ADHD, just thinking about trying to do all of this daily gives me anxiety. I can't imagine documenting this level of detail and then actually sticking to it day after day. I'm very jealous of people capable of doing this kind of digital organization, but my brain actively works against me. My Notion is just a random jumble of sporadic notes. Usually a result of whenever I get some temporary burst of interest in trying to write things down, but it fades pretty quickly.

Brother...there is no need for this kind of organisation... Just two things... 1. What are the stuffs you need to remember/ find later? ... Write those Down..or record those, or take a picture.. 2. What are the things/ keyword you will need whole looking for those info? Use them as Titles or keywords... And Boom! You have a second brain..It's just that simple.

Absolutely, you really only need to start with a tag, a link, a topic, heading and the note text and you’re good to go. Worry about the organising later

Hi Rilock, Obsidian can be as simple or complex as you want it to be. Check out Bryan Jenks on youtube, he is an advocate for ADHD and his channel has some great content. I’m going to make an upcoming video talking about some of his stuff so stay tuned for that
