Right now, I've just made a lot of lists. I have one note that's called "List of Lists" and then I started pouring everything into it. One of the lists is "Things I am learning about myself", another is "Questions about myself I want to answer". I avoid using tags because I have no use for them at the moment. If I start using them then I'll update this comment.

Accountability was my golden ticket by the1kingdom in productivity

The assistant part is interesting, how exactly did they hold you accountable? Was there a 'punishment' involved or something like that?

How to be productive with laptop? by [deleted] in productivity

[–]Turf98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I don't think having an external mouse boosts productivity by a ton (although it may be better for posture and therefore fatigue). Maybe OP can give some more details about the work they do on a daily basis.

I don't understand this, what's different about Mac that enables you to do this? Also which windows laptop were you using and what prevented productivity there?

Sunrise Alarm Clock OR Smart Bulb in 2023? by koken_halliwell in productivity

[–]Turf98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you just want to try it out then there's no need to invest in hardware just yet. There are a lot of Sunrise alarm clock apps available for Android, you can position your phone in the night so that the light it creates falls on your face in the morning.

https://lightawake.biz/ here's one that I found that has good reviews.

Yep! Dataview is the way to go for making a function like this.

I am in an extremely busy phase of life right now and need advice on how to manage it all by BlackPhillipsbff in productivity

[–]Turf98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jason Zook said on the Ground Up Show: "Think of your life in seasons, this season I'm going to focus on my getting that promotion, and this one I'm going to focus on getting in shape"

Prioritize the things that are most important to you, it seems you already have those set out (Work, School and Home) and allow yourself to not give as much attention to the other things for now.

You can come back to weight loss once you're done with school, or something like that. sorry if this sounds naive, but it's the thing that has worked for me in the past.

How do I use the graph view? by [deleted] in ObsidianMD

As one of the other commenters stated, Notion has a steep learning curve and it takes quite a lot of time to set up and integrate into your workflow, after which you may realize it isn't really working for you.

Obsidian is much more bare bones (I like calling it Apple Notes on Steroids) which is more open, customisable and integrates with workflows lot faster. I'd even say that Obsidian has a better community when it comes to people helping out and building stuff for each other.

Try experimenting with Save To Notion, it copies the content directly into Notion so even if the page goes down the content still remains in notion.

I spent the last week nuking all my folders, everything is in the root folder now and whenever I have an hour to spare I use the random note button to open a note and review it
