Why do I have to have a why? or some theme or meaning? why not just wanting to tell a good story? You shouldn't have to have any message you want to convey, other than doing something that people will enjoy. If you do have some thing you want to convey, a message, then that's fine I guess.
@creadevlabs16 күн бұрын
Telling a good story could be the why behind the game you're making. And usually a story has something to say, even if that meaning may be more subtle and not in your face. Sometimes the why is making a fun game to play with friends. Games like Mario Kart or Mario Party come to mind here. There isn't much of a story to these games, but they are fun to play with others, which is their purpose or why. By the way, thank you for your thoughtful question! I appreciate you challenging my point of view here.
@LittleHorseVoice6 күн бұрын
@Uhfgood Storytelling calls on the empathy of experience. (Not sympathy of emotion from the audience; but subconsciously fulfilling a lack, or yearning inherit of every human, towards fulfilling the characters motivation.) A story always asks a core question about this motivation that anyone can empathize with: who am I, why am I here, where am I going, what am I willing to change to get what I want, etc. The storytellers job is to utilize characters who each have a unique perspective to help answer your story's core question, otherwise known as theme. Your characters don't have to be humans or even sentient conscious beings, so locations and robots can be characters; but they must be personified, (that being,) their motivations must be grounded in the empathy of human experiences. I understand why the creator approaches their architecture from the top-down, emphasizing the why. However if you don't have a fundamental grasp on explaining literary concepts, everything that is said can come off as wishy-washy pseudo-spiritual creatively lacking mumbo-jumbo. This isn't an easy concept to start with, to read more on characterization I'd recommend reading David Corbett The Art of Character and the Character Compass. I've recently bought Tarn Adam's literature on AI Proc Gen and Storytelling Proc Gen and can give feedback in a month once I've read them. I mean no disrespect with my comments. I'm just trying to be straight to the point.

Great video! I've been looking for something that I could use as an alternative to google tasks as well as inspiration for structuring inactive projects or as I like to call them: "Future Adrian's job." I'm interested in the possibility of linking project deadlines to the planning app which I'm assuming would also automatically sync with Google Calendar. The biggest strength tools like Obsidian is their customization, and the ability to automate the small parts that you can use to procrastinate actual work. I also like the potential with the tasks management about possibly using obsidian as a form of a reminder app. If there's promise I might even make a project out of learning how to develop android widgets for Obsidian and stuff! (No promises). I'd definitely be interested in a complete vault setup tour that also includes breaking down the plugins! One piece of advise that I think would probably make this video nicer for the algorithm as well as referencing to would be adding chapters to your video. Personally I'd set them up something like: 00:00 - Intro 00:51 - Into the Vault/Project Structure 03:35 - Managing Tasks 04:41 - Calendar Structure/Day Planning 06:14 - Time Tracking 07:12 - Utilities 08:32 - Project Management

Why tags instead of properties?
@creadevlabsАй бұрын
I use Dataview in a few places, and I prefer to use tags instead of the double colon for my queries. I also like using tags as I can use them to categorize things without having to create unique properties for different kinds of notes. I can also apply multiple tags in the single tag property, so things can have multiple categories without having to add different properties.

I'm wondering to know how you measure your increase level in productivity. I ask because for me, productivity is a way to reach goal in a more effective and efficient way. IMHO, Obsidian pull us in the Tinkering mode like Notion where we take more time fin tuning the product and doing the work. I'm wondering if Elon Musk use Obsidian to be more productive :D I struggled like you and I think having a dedicated tool that do the job perfectly for each task is best. Google calendar for calendar things. Things 3 for Tasks and Bear for Notes. That would also be Todoist or Tick Tick for Task and Obsidian for notes. I often use Obsidian for tasks but in a more project management way so Obsidian is not my day focus task manager. But having a system where we put properties and things like that for notes is in my opinion a wast of time and is more oriented about productivity procrastination than productivity itself.
@creadevlabs21 күн бұрын
You're absolutely right that tools like Notion and Obsidian can become distractions with their proclivity towards endless tinkering. They are not the best tools for everyone, and that's just fine. I for one enjoy the process of experimentation, and it may be this doesn't end up working for me down the road. But I never know until I give it a try.
@creadevlabs21 күн бұрын
As far as measuring productivity, I measure it based on whether I'm spending more time fighting with my system or getting things done. So far my Obsidian system has been running smoothly. It's there when I need it, and gets out of my way when I need to get to work. I've been able to get more projects and tasks over the finish line as a result. The important thing is to experiment and find what works best for you. No one else is better suited to that task.

I create a feature branch per story, then create a PR directly to main once I’m done with the story. Since it’s only me working on it right now I don’t worry about having a QA branch. I test on the feature branch, then merge to main.
Please allow a regular 1080 version to be played the HDR is blinding.
Thank your for the feedback. I had no idea my camera was filming in HDR, so I'll make sure to turn it off in future videos.
Followed because fellow Disney adult
Thanks for the follow! And it's always good to meet another Disney fan!
Dafuq is HDR? It's fucking up my screen.
Sorry the HDR was causing issues for you. No need for language, please.
Exactly what I've been pondering in the past couple days as I'm tediously switching across different life management "systems." ThanK YOU!
I’m so glad I was able to help! Thank you so much for watching!
Great video! I've been looking for something that I could use as an alternative to google tasks as well as inspiration for structuring inactive projects or as I like to call them: "Future Adrian's job." I'm interested in the possibility of linking project deadlines to the planning app which I'm assuming would also automatically sync with Google Calendar. The biggest strength tools like Obsidian is their customization, and the ability to automate the small parts that you can use to procrastinate actual work. I also like the potential with the tasks management about possibly using obsidian as a form of a reminder app. If there's promise I might even make a project out of learning how to develop android widgets for Obsidian and stuff! (No promises). I'd definitely be interested in a complete vault setup tour that also includes breaking down the plugins! One piece of advise that I think would probably make this video nicer for the algorithm as well as referencing to would be adding chapters to your video. Personally I'd set them up something like: 00:00 - Intro 00:51 - Into the Vault/Project Structure 03:35 - Managing Tasks 04:41 - Calendar Structure/Day Planning 06:14 - Time Tracking 07:12 - Utilities 08:32 - Project Management
Thank you for your suggestions! I plan to do more videos breaking down the individual parts of the system. I’ll also add some chapters so it’s easier to jump between the different parts of the video. Thanks again for your suggestions!
Why tags instead of properties?
I use Dataview in a few places, and I prefer to use tags instead of the double colon for my queries. I also like using tags as I can use them to categorize things without having to create unique properties for different kinds of notes. I can also apply multiple tags in the single tag property, so things can have multiple categories without having to add different properties.
lol why is this all white video in HDR at peak brightness? Trying to watch this on my M4 iPad and practically going blind
Haha. The screen capture footage was very dark when I brought it into my editing software, so I brightened it up. Too much it sounds like. Getting that feedback a lot on this one 😆
let's go
I've come a long way since this video! Almost up to 600 subs now!
I'm wondering to know how you measure your increase level in productivity. I ask because for me, productivity is a way to reach goal in a more effective and efficient way. IMHO, Obsidian pull us in the Tinkering mode like Notion where we take more time fin tuning the product and doing the work. I'm wondering if Elon Musk use Obsidian to be more productive :D I struggled like you and I think having a dedicated tool that do the job perfectly for each task is best. Google calendar for calendar things. Things 3 for Tasks and Bear for Notes. That would also be Todoist or Tick Tick for Task and Obsidian for notes. I often use Obsidian for tasks but in a more project management way so Obsidian is not my day focus task manager. But having a system where we put properties and things like that for notes is in my opinion a wast of time and is more oriented about productivity procrastination than productivity itself.
You're absolutely right that tools like Notion and Obsidian can become distractions with their proclivity towards endless tinkering. They are not the best tools for everyone, and that's just fine. I for one enjoy the process of experimentation, and it may be this doesn't end up working for me down the road. But I never know until I give it a try.
As far as measuring productivity, I measure it based on whether I'm spending more time fighting with my system or getting things done. So far my Obsidian system has been running smoothly. It's there when I need it, and gets out of my way when I need to get to work. I've been able to get more projects and tasks over the finish line as a result. The important thing is to experiment and find what works best for you. No one else is better suited to that task.
How can i create a duplicate of this?
I’m going to be making videos on how to set up each piece of this system. I can also make it available to download on my website. I’ll need to make a few tweaks first, and then let you know when it’s ready.
These are some really great plug-ins and implementations I hadn't even used or seen! I hope you'll do more in depth videos to set these up!
Glad you enjoyed the video! I'll be doing more in depth set up guides for individual pieces of the system, plus more Obsidian for Beginners videos.
Please decrease the background music!
I've tried to that in my later videos. It can be hard to get the right balance sometimes. Thank you so much for the feedback!
literally blinded
Sorry about that. The screen capture was really dark when I pulled it into my editing software, so I brightened it up. Something for me to take note of in future videos.
😂 😂
is this video in HDR?
The screen capture was really dark when I pulled it into my editing software, so I brightened it up. Guess it was a bit too much.
I am new to Obsidian and this video has lot of good ideas, but I am not sure how to set this things up; like how do you set up bookmarks for today / this week (does it sync with calendar ?). Can you please elaborate or make video on how to use these plugins and queries that you provided overview of ? In any case, great video! (apart from the light mode 😁)
Yes, I know, I'm an odd one with my light mode 😆 I've started making an Obsidian for Beginners course, the first of which can be found here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqd9qbmAmae2j5s.htmlsi=OpxP5ZLIlSc967MW. I'll be going more in depth on everything I showed in this video, plus even more throughout the series.
@@creadevlabs Made my day! This is what I was looking for; Thanks a bunch!
You're welcome! I'm glad the videos were useful to you!
I wanted watch the whole video but the glare
The video was too bright you mean? I can work on balancing the brightness in future videos. Thank you for the feedback and thanks for watching!
This Is because it’s in HDR. And I hate that brightness boost.
Nice video but why would you use lightmode noooo my eyes
Haha. I am one of those rare people who likes light mode 🤷 Thanks for watching the video!
Dude... you hit the nail right on the head 5:07
Making the title and thumbnail always seemed backwards to me, and I learned from experience that it is (at least for me)
@@creadevlabs A lot of the stuff they say to do seems a bit counter-intuitive..
It does seem that way. That’s why it’s so important to experiment with different ways of doing things yourself and discovering what’s best for you.
Nice!
Thanks!
Way to go! I just got my first 100 subs. Two weeks since my start.
That’s awesome! Way to go!
Congrats on your growth! I hope to begin my growth soon. 🙏
It'll happen if you keep at it! Perseverance is key.
I think it depends on the person. If you started out with a good idea I can see where advice could distract from that. If youre like me, and you convinced yourself you had a good idea, but your idea was just a repackaging of something people could get better, elsewhere, then youtube gurus can be a helpful wake up call that. In my case, people didn't watch my videos because the content sucked. I changed the way I did videos, and now I'm fully monetized.
You're absolutely right. For many people the advice given by KZread experts is helpful and leads them to making better videos. In my case, because I already had something that worked, trying to change it to match what the experts were saying kind of messed me up. The important thing is to try things out and discover what works best for you!
Your video quality is great
Thank you! The video was shot with the front facing camera on an iPhone 14! The quality of the cameras in phones is amazing these days.
Been at it for 1.5 years and still around 450 subs. The thing I ran into, was that I posted a video in my early days about sobriety, that I never intended my channel to be about. I just wanted to make self-improvement videos, but turns out youtube only shows my videos to people who want to stop drinking and other videos where I put massive effort in just won't get shown to a broader audience anymore 😄
I understand how that feels. My most popular video is about organization for solo software developer projects, which is a subset of what I want to make videos on, but it became the only video I felt was getting seen. Just gotta find that next great video topic that'll blow up your channel!
I'm an avid user of Obsidian but I'm sure there is plenty I can learn! I love your explanation, that I'm understanding some of the stuff I never got (vaults, all stored plaintext, etc) in just the first few min.
I'm so glad you got something out of the video! I've got lots more Obsidian videos in the pipeline. Let me know if there's a particular topic you'd like to see covered!
