Great video! Loved the animations and the "wall" concept. The PARA method wasn't resonating for me either so seeing your revised method was really cool :)
For sure! I'll be making a more detailed tour of my notes app at some point. In the mean time, you can find some examples for the notes for my headquarters in the building a productivity system video! th-cam.com/video/tBQPCW0kgrM/w-d-xo.html
Actually, the reason I left is because I kept getting so distracted when I had notion open. I was constantly wanting to build new pages and decorate and find new ways to organize information - instead of actually using it. (probably because I create content about this stuff) However, I still LOVE notion. I think it is an amazing application and I recommend it a lot to my coaching clients. I still use it for some very specific cases.
Hey! I think having multiple apps is totally fine, specially how you described it - having a very clear categorization of what goes in what app. I do recommend that everything "note" related be in the same app so you can move things around as needed!
Just watched the intro and I'm already interested (I have a robust system but I am a neurodivergent anxious nerd :D), because yes a bit sick of people showing systems that are not sustainable in the long run
Fellow neurodivergent - I agree a lot of the 'second brain' content involves highly intricate systems but I think at the end of the day, dont follow any one person's system. Make your own! and keep refining until it is just what you need.
I have a similar system! My second brain is Google Keep for almost 10 years 🤯 (i'm an android user) and even if i try some fancier note taking apps i always come back to it cause it's so simple and effective. I'd like a folder structure like Apple Notes though. I also have a notebook for loose thoughts like you! (And a category in my notes app when i'm on the go) I'm thinking about moving something on Notion, for stuff that needs more structure and for "library". The only thing with my system is that often it becomes a mess 😂 i have to find a better system to keep up with it, it basically reflects the caos in my head. I liked very much this video and I think it deserve a better visibility ❤ (on this point: i think that adding "the WALL method" on the thumbnail could make the video more captivating, because people love methods and acronyms 👀) I have a curiosity: things like list of ideas (eg yt videos) where do they go on your system?
FINALLY a follow up video. I was about to send a search and rescue out for you. Nobody has sold me on apple notes the way you have!!
I know, it took me forever 🙈! Yeyyyy I'm glad. I'm obsessed with it.
The video is finally here! Such a great system!

Thank you!! I’m glad you found it helpful- I was doubting a bit if it would resonate with other people or it only work for my brain 😂
I also wonder if we could see some of ur notes for example. Its very interesting

Is there a reason why you left Notion?

There's nothing wrong with having multiple apps as long as you feel comfortable and productive

I also have a notebook (well several) for loose thoughts, but I call it my brain vomit journal :D

@@the_amygdala I totally agree. That' what I ended up doing. But I love seeing more "simple" inspiration
Woo! Totally agree, hopefully this one gives you ideas for sustainability!
I might just steal that name, love it.
