Put my first project in Archive, hoooray 🥳🥳🥳 I know it's not good, but I am a person, who needs inspiration to start doing a task. Like I randomly think what I want to do today and start doing it. Creating a list of things to do tomorrow never worked for me. But now I have a list of 16(+2) projects and can choose randomly between them.

 

It was really hard to find note taking app, that fits my needs. Obsidian is great, but I have problems with obsidian sync at the moment. Evernote is still iffy, cuz even frontpage is monetized, I can't change anything unless I pay. Wtf. Anyway, I am happy that i can create folders in 2 levels. But it's not the usual way of creating folder inside of a folder. You create notebook, which then can be put inside different stacks. Feels like a hack. So you can have PARA stacks, where you shift notebooks back and forth. Right now I only have Projects folder 😅. But honestly I already feel easier. I am not holding ideas for projects (not only ones like write summary of an article but also planning dates) in my "first'' brain, and it's such a relief. Can wait when I finish some projects and will need an Archive stack(folder).

 

That's a big struggle for me. When I was learning about Zettelkasten, the idea of immediatly writing in your own words the summary of a chapter feels daunting. What if I use the wrong words and wouldn't understand later? What I want is to have notes from the book and then use them to write summary maybe in a week after reading a chapter. I can't just do it immediately. What do you think are some good ways to aproach telling in your own words?
