A good marriage is the ultimate productivity hack (I am exaggerating). You can’t afford to waste as much time when you need to provide for two futures. If you didn’t care about yours before you will after finding someone because they make life more tolerable and you need to if you want to stick around and support them.
I didn’t realise that your almost at 1 million subscribers now! I remember watching your 100k Q and A like it was a few months ago. Crazy happy for you
The way you explain these note taking apps is so detailed… I think every point truly reflects what the developers had in mind when they created these apps. Amazing
Came in to learn about Alis’s pick for note taking apps. Left dissecting my personal relationships and a strong desire to start gardening. PS. Glad you mentioned RemNote :)
Personally as an undergraduate student remnote has been amazing. Being able to create notes and cue cards to engage in active recall and spaces repetition without having to remake cards has been a time saver and a blessing!
I'm currently on my "choosing your personal note-taking app" journey (I'm leaning towards Obsidian, and it's not surprising since I am the gardener type); this video truly took a lot of the stress out of the process. Thanks again, Ali!
*Ali in the thumbnail is looking at me to watch this video* since I am avoiding almost every video of him after that TV productivity one since every one of his videos lately, take me into dive and ends up into a singularity of Productivity where I find myself in a Black hole of *The Guilt* of not able to stand alone as an achiever! Enough of the rant! Thanks for coming to the talk!
The timing on this video couldn't have been more perfect. I've been binge watching your videos to prepare for my graduate school next month. Thanks so much as always Ali! ☺️
I needed this video so badly. Right now I've got Joplin, Obsidian, Click-up, Evernote, Notion, Tick Tick and I've been testing all sorts of apps to find the best one. I've officially become a dog chasing cars except I'm actually a neurotic note taker chasing apps. It all started with Evernote becoming funky around the time this video came out. It messed up my professional workflow for a few months and made me search for the "perfect note taking app." I got Notion and started transferring and then second guessed myself. It's been a messy few months. I'm nervous of picking the wrong system and having to transfer in a few years. That is the main thing holding me back from committing - given this is for work. After watching this video, it's become clear that I will use Notion for my business. The database features and my personality make this a simple choice that I am sticking to. Also the ability to work with others is awesome. I am nervous about the few blackouts on Notion given there is no offline mode. I will use Evernote for personal use and some work note-taking. I'll use Tick Tick for tasks. That's it. I'm sticking to this plan. Obsidian and Joplin are really cool. I really like the idea of them but I can't see me using them long term or adding others to that workflow. It's also not how I use these apps. I need them mostly for work and my personal use note taking doesn't need anything more than Evernote, even if it's slow.
This greatly explains the differences of the apps which I was trying to find from other youtube videos. They only explained the contents and perks of every apps, however, they weren't able to include the personality of the user that could best suit the app. I was planning to get other note taking apps since a lot of them said that "this is the best app ever". Now I know that I am match made in heaven with notion since I prefer a structured but able to customize to my liking. Big thanks!
I started with the gardener framework which allowed me to develop into the architect archetype. I used Obsidian for a couple of years and through all that time I started to notice patterns in my way of thinking. Now I'm using Anytype in addition to Obsidian. Sometimes one leads to another.
Having a good note taking app is so helpful because my mind moves so fast. I’m always jotting down thoughts ... it’s the only way i remember most things 😝
Semi-unrelated, but from a deterministic standpoint, people with successful lifelong romantic relationships are almost by definition soulmates. They were always meant to be and they were always going to be together due to millions of years of events that resulted in them meeting, liking each other, and having the ability to put effort toward the relationship. While who you end up with is a result of your actions, your actions are a result of everything that came before you. So while there are many people you could be compatible with, you were only ever going to be with some or one or none. I know that’s beside the point lol, but I couldn’t help it. Great video.
I use text files, hosted on my own server. Been doing it for years. On PC and my laptop I open them in Sublime Text with my own color scheme (for tags, lists, etc) and keyboard macros. The custom color scheme highlights things like links, different titles (text after #, ##, ###) lists (starting with -, •, >, etc.), bold (surrounded in *), italic, important, and a lot more. On mobile I add ideas to a few "quick notes" and later merge that into my main note system. Benefits: - they open very quickly - I can set global keyboard shortcuts to open specific note files - the custom color scheme really improves how I organise a note - total control over my notes since they're on my own hardware (no need to blindly trust a company to encrypt my notes) Disadvantage: - I can't add inline images.. This is why I'm looking for something that can read text notes and somehow link images into them
You have really boosted me. I have been building a personal online library for the past few years and you are giving me impetus to upgrade my tools. You are a great inspiration because your content is no-nonsense and useful. Thank you. I subscribed.
I found your channel a year ago and it has changed my life!! I'm able to get so many things done now with all the productivity tips that you have. Shout outs to the awesome work that you have been doing. Best youtuber!
i personally use onenote to quickly take down notes or ideas, and then move those to notion to organize them better. it really comes down to your personal use, hopefully everyone will find which system best suit them!
I can tell very easily after a bunch of your videos when you know what you're talking about and when you don't. Also I find it better when you're not preachy thinking you know how things in life work. I came for the app comparison, got it, and had to ignore 50% of the other stuff you said. Luckily it's a rare case
*I just read the timestamps before watching the video and was incredibly confused* Thanks for the video Ali, I hope I can make these kinds of productivity videos like you one day
Guess I have a multiple personality disorder... I use Evernote for collecting and cataloguing information (Librarian), Bear to write down thoughts and reflections on various topics that may or may not be interlinked (Gardener), and Notion for managing project-related information, planning stuff, storing and archiving meeting notes etc. (Architect).
Enjoyed your video! After watching it, I’m convinced that the second brain consists of several apps, not just one. It’s rather a network of different note-taking apps.
Valuable comments on personality type. No wonder I keep getting drawn back to Evernote. I’m a librarian type. Also, have you read “the acre of diamonds”? It talks about how we tend to search for perfection elsewhere, when in reality our greatest wealth is found in the acre of diamonds buried in our own back yard. This applies to relationships, business, career, etc. Sometimes in the pursuit of riches and perfection we end up with nothing. We forgot to open up our back door and start digging for the riches we already possess and which have crossed our path. As Forrest Gump once said...”smart is as smart does”. Something to think about. Perfectionism is like chasing the horizon. Even if you sneak up on it at night, you’ll never catch it, it just jumps ahead. We then live in the “gap” of what we could have had, verses what we chased due to our own emotional poverty. Maybe 80% achievement in life is good enough. The rest is just smelling the roses. I’ve been pretty hard on Evernote. But it really does fit my personality quite well. Thanks for the in-site Ali. Great content as usual.
I use Notion for everything in my life, my TH-cam channel, the startup I'm launching, university...EVERYTHING! Great video once again you gym shark athlete haha! 💪🏻
Man I didn't realise you are 50k from 1 million subscribers I subscribed when you were around 100-200k. I just clicked on that subscribe button just after few sec I knew I was at the right place.We all have came a long way. Thanks for being a mentor !
My humble opinion. In the course of the last 30 years, after watching "hot new software" cease and there files become unusable, there are 3 file types that will last - the very best is paper (though it is impractical now a days), then pdf's, then text files. Unless all your data is in pdf's, in 10 years you'll be screwed. (I work in an industry where knowledge grows rather than becomes redundant). Anything that manipulates and leaves a pdf is a good starting point. Stay away from databases and propriety formats. btw - great relationship advice.
I just started using Obsidian after using Notion for years. In my opinion is that Notion isn’t a note taking app. It’s a project app. Regarding note taking and learning, I don’t think there is anything Notion can do that Obsidian can’t. That is, unless you view learning and note taking as a project with a beginning and an end. That’s totally fine, but I like the structure of Notion for projects like development and tracking the books I read, but it doesn’t help me personally with learning new information as obsidian. For now, I’m using Notion to track stuff and Obsidian to learn. I get what you’re saying about Obsidian being more for “Gardner” type personalities, but I think it can also be setup for the architect personality.
I went back to using iOS Notes app but now I’m interested in using Notion again (INTJ here) and Evernote to sort things even more conveniently 🔮 Cleverly-presented video, btw! 🏅
Ahhh He Finally Said That Notion is the best for note taking app! But i have literally confused after seeing the TIME STAMPS IN THE DESCRIPTION! You proved that you are a Doctor!
I use Google Keep. But after watching this video, I feel like: - I've been gardening on an unworthy piece of land. - I've lost the content I had enjoyed in this long relationship. - Also, that I'm still single.
@@jimmyhua731 Yeah, freemium matters certainly. Plus, I love the simplicity of Google Keep. Hassle-free note taking. However, it does depend on the purpose of note taking. A student might need all those bells and whistles for assignments and studying, but if you're working in a fast paced environment, quick and clean note taking interface works well.
I think to break it down. Evernote great for dumping things that you might need. Recipe you want to try etc. roam - daily tracker and when you want material inspiration or relevant. Such as reading an article about medicine notion- team collaboration and school notes where structure is really needed. Semester class on human heart and condition. The difference really is notion has design by intention while roam can be seeing links to things you may not be aware off. This video did a great service of putting them together. Ie no single tool is great at everything.
OneNote for me. Because the mobile apps are great, and I can use a pen. It's organizable enough with [[linking]] across all of my notebooks if I want, groups of sections with infinite sub-groups, as well as sub-pages to a page within a section. I also trust it will be there "forever". I guess I'm a librarian. As an engineering student, I like having a "library of my knowledge", or a quick reference from what I've learned in all the different subjects with links to relevant math/science/tech. If you note down and explain all the subjects in your own words, you are more likely to remember them, and you'll "get them" more quickly if/when you need repetition as well. The formula/maths tool in Office is fast enough if you learn all the "tricks". I find it much better to write the equiations straight into the doc, than having a spilt screen LaTeX kind of setup. I know people love writing math with LaTeX, but I won't ever use it for note-taking 🤣
I love Google keep notes, they all sync together, can include check boxes and alarms, has an archive option. It's perfect for someone who uses a google account for every browser.
I was about to attend the first day of my university so I decided to look for the best note taking app. This video poped up and I watched it. Now I am confused would it be easier for me to find a life partner or a note taking app.

Only Ali would relate note taking apps to getting married.. _only_ Ali
never
Also Tiago Forte. He mentioned it in Ali’s interview. Good example of idea recycling.
Only Ali would relate switching your note taking app to having an affair with the new secretary
Ahaha
😂😂😂
I never expected myself to actually consider the idea of having meaningless sex with note taking apps
😆😆😆😆
LOL
Next time whenever im trying to get to know someone. I would just ask.... "so, what kinds of note taking apps you like?"
"What, you use Evernote? I don't think it will ever work out between us."
😂😂😂😂😂
Its actually a good idea🤔🤔
What if they used the standard Apple notes?

Valuable comments on personality type. No wonder I keep getting drawn back to Evernote. I’m a librarian type.
Also, have you read “the acre of diamonds”?
It talks about how we tend to search for perfection elsewhere, when in reality our greatest wealth is found in the acre of diamonds buried in our own back yard.
This applies to relationships, business, career, etc.
Sometimes in the pursuit of riches and perfection we end up with nothing.
We forgot to open up our back door and start digging for the riches we already possess and which have crossed our path.
As Forrest Gump once said...”smart is as smart does”.
Something to think about.
Perfectionism is like chasing the horizon. Even if you sneak up on it at night, you’ll never catch it, it just jumps ahead. We then live in the “gap” of what we could have had, verses what we chased due to our own emotional poverty.
Maybe 80% achievement in life is good enough. The rest is just smelling the roses.
I’ve been pretty hard on Evernote. But it really does fit my personality quite well.
Thanks for the in-site Ali.
Great content as usual.
What I found out is that there is no such thing as ' perfect '. nothing in life is perfect, even the word perfect isn't perfect.
Thanks for letting me know I’m not the only person breaking my head finding which Note taking app is the more suitable over and over
Could you compare OneNote and Evernote? Also, how do your handwritten notes in notability fit in?
I was thinking the same. How come he didn't mention it in here?
I use Notion for everything in my life, my TH-cam channel, the startup I'm launching, university...EVERYTHING! Great video once again you gym shark athlete haha! 💪🏻

My humble opinion. In the course of the last 30 years, after watching "hot new software" cease and there files become unusable, there are 3 file types that will last - the very best is paper (though it is impractical now a days), then pdf's, then text files. Unless all your data is in pdf's, in 10 years you'll be screwed. (I work in an industry where knowledge grows rather than becomes redundant). Anything that manipulates and leaves a pdf is a good starting point. Stay away from databases and propriety formats. btw - great relationship advice.

The formula/maths tool in Office is fast enough if you learn all the "tricks". I find it much better to write the equiations straight into the doc, than having a spilt screen LaTeX kind of setup. I know people love writing math with LaTeX, but I won't ever use it for note-taking 🤣
The notion app is amazing. It’s the one everyone should use.
I love Google keep notes, they all sync together, can include check boxes and alarms, has an archive option. It's perfect for someone who uses a google account for every browser.
I want someone to love me as much as Ali loves note-taking apps.
You definitely deserve more) from Russia with love) great chanell by the way

alsadig abdalla have you even watched the video? 🤦🏻♀️
I was about to attend the first day of my university so I decided to look for the best note taking app. This video poped up and I watched it. Now I am confused would it be easier for me to find a life partner or a note taking app.
I’ve been watching you since ~2K subs and I genuinely think this is your best video yet
I’m actually still trying to get over Ali’s “how to watch TV productively” video
Why? Was it a clickbait?
