Transcripts
hello there my name is Misha I'm a
devops engineer from the Netherlands and
in this week's tutorial we're going to
explore the different not taking tools
and apps that are available I'm going to
explain to you which one I have chosen
and why and I'm basically going to tell
you everything you need to know uh to
make your informed
decision so if you haven't watched my
previous video in this series I
recommend you do so it fully explains
the benefits of not taking and how it
can improve your career and the link
will be down below and somewhere in the
screen
somewhere so let's get started when I
started my not taking journey I was
overwhelmed with all of the options
available and making decisions is one of
the most draining tasks we can we can do
as human beings and I literally SP spend
several hundred hours trying out these
different tools because if you like
Google not taking systems not taking
apps I mean look at that 10 best not
taking apps best no taking apps six best
no taking apps like how how many apps
are there right no taking apps it's it's
just so much information and I've done
the work I've spent several 100 hours
trying many tools Building Systems into
them breaking them down and I'm going to
share with you everything I know about
this so I can save you hundreds of hours
if you just watch this video to the
end so what what are we looking for in a
not taking system well as you see there
is a wall of blog posts here there are
so many options but let's actually get
into what we need in a not taking system
what are we actually looking
for so there are basically two
categories of no taking apps in my
opinion so there are the the simple
ones
simple like Apple notes or um these
other applications where all you do is
just create a note you store it there
and that's it you you you save it for
later you write your shopping lists
there you do very simple tasks in there
it's just a collection of notes like my
my Google Drive with Google docs on
there that's also a very simple not
taking apps not taking tool but there
are also apps that go beyond so th those
are more
advanced let's I won't write the whole
world whole word but let's say advanced
and these are apps that go beyond
storage these are the apps that make it
possible to create links between notes
to um visualize your notes to have tags
on your notes and pull them out these
are the the apps that go beyond just
making a note and storing it and saving
it for
later and even though you can do
incredible things with these simp apps
like apple noes there are people who
build entire settle cast in apple
noes we want to build a
system where we
can store our
noes but we also need to be able to
retrieve those notes with lightning
speed and like I said in the previous
video the ability to retrieve
information from your system depends on
the structure that you have and the
ability or to search the ability to know
where to look in your system all of that
so you need to do this with
intention and you can do that in a
simple app but an advanced app is going
to make that a lot easier for you
because it has more advanced
functionality so what are we looking for
in this Advanced uh in this advanced
setup we need several functions and let
me just switch to text here let's
see so we need several functions we need
the ability to link notes
together so we need to be able to
indicate relationships between notes we
need to be able to visualize how these
noes relate to each other this is very
important for thinking and that's we
will get into that in future videos or
in my ttle cast course that is uh linked
down
below um we need the ability to link
notes we need a good search
functionality we need the ability to
search we need the ability to
visualize our links or notes in some way
this is very important uh
visualizing things activates different
parts of your brain and like I'm not an
artist I don't see bright pictures when
I close my eyes but still I utilize
creating pictures and images to um
facilitate um memory and to be able to
memorize things more quickly if you
create a picture about something in your
mind you're much likely to remember it
likewise if if you have the ability to
visualize your notes in some way to to
do visual things with your
notes that is actually going to improve
your understanding and your thinking
this is why the settle cast method is so
incredibly effective because originally
you would have these paper index cards
where you write on and you put those in
a box and then when it comes to write
time to write an article you can take
all these cards out and put them on the
table and you can spread them around and
you can actually visually play with the
ideas you can visually put them together
you can visually um put them in
different orders and see how they relate
to each other this is super powerful in
thinking so we need to ability to
visualize
things so we need to be able to link
notes somehow search visualize them
next we also need the
ability to access our no taking system
from anywhere so
accessibility and yeah from portable
devices so ideally we will be able to
access our notes from our phone because
yeah we are out and about we're sitting
on the bus we want to make a note well
we want to have a system where we can
access the notes that we already have or
add a note
there or when you're on holiday and
you're walking in the mountains and you
have this super important Insight you
need to be able to capture that
somehow now as you are watching my
channel and this playlist there is
also a very high likelihood that you are
a Linux devops software engineer uh
interested kind of person who wants to
learn more about work working on the
command line like my channel is
literally called living on the command
line so as a command line focused
engineer there are some other
requirements that we need to consider we
need to
have oops here locally available text
files that is something that we really
need and why well because we want
to we we want the ability to open our
text files in in Vim in our or in
whatever editor that you prefer like
obviously I'm a Vim guy but if you have
the text files on your machine then
you're in charge of those and you can
modify your editing experience as you
like
it so we want locally available text
files we want the ability to run scripts
on those
files very important if you have
thousands of files and you want to make
a bulk update you don't want to rely on
some sort of external thing no you just
write a script and do
it we want to like I said we want to uh
use our preferred text
editors text editors and then Elite Vim
crew reporting
in and we want to
customize our
editing and reading
experience so
these external tools that we're going to
go through yes you can customize your
experience in there but not to the
degree where you can do things like um
let's see do I have a terminal open yeah
soorry if I go to my temp folder and if
I just uh create a hello. MD markdown
file if I press space DD then it's going
to insert the the date here or space
space YT or space Hy this is going to
insert a short code and I just write the
YouTube ID and then it's going to embed
a YouTube video on my blog this kind of
stuff right um or if I this is a title
that I
write if I do bang bang
title then it's going to run a go
program a very simple go program that I
wrote and put take that
um line of text feed it through the go
program and replace this line in the
editor with the program this kind of
stuff you want to do the the you want to
have some customized experience right as
a command line engineer you want to be
able to create these little programs and
do that for
yourself
so those are the focus areas for command
line focused Engineers so locally
available text files run scripts on the
files use preferred text
editors and customize our editing and
reading
experience now what options do we have
what and basically what options did I
try well one of the first ones is notion
uh let's see this is one of the most um
um how do you call it most popular tools
out there and for a reason it's a very
very good app it is you can see here
like entire companies are being run from
notion like it's not that they use these
companies well they like these companies
will use it but there are entire
companies that run all of their
operations from notion project
management
everything so it's a very powerful place
to start you can start for free but
there are some problems with it well I I
spent eight months in notion and I built
my first systems there
and it like I said it can be a good
place to start because you have a lot of
templates available so you can access
the templates library and they're going
to be like full like writing blogging
templates content calendars or whatever
like project management templates they
can be very easy to start with those and
what's also really cool about notion is
that you can create databases so you can
create a database of notes and then you
can have another
database and you can link these
databases with each other and create
relations between them and you can do
really cool stuff and I I spent many an
hour trying to come up with these insane
project management systems which are
totally over engineered for my sort of
one man show of studying and becoming an
engineer but still it was cool it was
fun
you can do incredible things with it but
like I'm saying it has a huge potential
for distraction and tinkering and and
just distraction so for this reason
alone I I don't recommend notion anymore
um there's simply too much YouTube
available around it too there's too much
productivity YouTube like all these big
guys like Ali abdal Thiago Forte I think
Forte now Forte doesn't use notion but
they just enter notion in YouTube and
there's just going to be so much
potential for
distraction and you're going to fall
into the Trap the same trap that I did
and that is that you start watching
YouTube videos about note taking instead
of actually taking
notes instead of actually studying notes
so that's this whole video is trying to
save you from that
trap but the main problem with notion is
that your files live in the
cloud when you access
notion you like you you log in and then
it's just a browser app and everything
is in the
app so there's no way to just go into
the terminal and say and and CD into a
directory and interact with your notes
that that it doesn't work that way so
all of your notes are always in the
cloud you can't run scripts on them you
can back them up as you like uh you
cannot open them in your favorite text
editor VI
and there's also the issue where notion
employees can actually access your notes
if they have some reason to do that so
in like I used to be very hard on
privacy not so much anymore but still
having my entire not taking system my
settle cast my deepest Secrets all of
that in a system in the cloud where
employees can access
it maybe
not so next in the list we have
Evernote
Evernote this is the one that Thiago for
uses or used a lot in his book building
a second
brain and Evernote is pretty cool
because it
combines not taking with to-do and
scheduling so it is
a yeah more of a second brain kind of
type of app and it's like I actually
never used Evernote I considered it I
maybe I created an account but again
here already we see that uh like notion
is free you can do most things free but
if you want to collaborate which you
probably won't need for your own system
but then you have to pay and here
Evernote probably it has some paid stuff
as well oh here pricing here see
personal so here there are like limits
to how many notes you can take there is
um Note size Etc so it already has some
pricing there too
yeah wow so you can create up to 50
notes okay well that's like I didn't
know I didn't even know that but that's
something to consider um when you make
your
decision uh my settle cast is 3,100
notes just so you
know so if you're looking for a tool
that allows you to build a second
brain I'm going to do a horrible attempt
at drawing a brain here so this is brain
if you want a second brain um then you
can consider Evernote but the thing is
we are not building a second brain we
are building a not taking system and a
second brain is a bigger concept that
spans many more things it it spans like
task management it spans time management
uh emails this kind of stuff so the
second brain is sort of the overarching
workflow not just not taking and I see
not taking as a part of the second brain
but it's a hugely important part it's
something that is this is where you need
to start with you need to start with a
good notetaking
system so this is a very important
distinction here like the not taking
system ver versus all of these other
tools and we're going to get into that
later I'm I will speak about second
brain not in this video but in the next
playlist this is going to uh I'm going
to show you my productivity system but
we now we are fully concerned with no
taking because that's the basis of
everything that's where we need to
start next there is uh Rome research
Rome and I briefly considered it it
looks like a very powerful tool it has a
great ecosystem it allows linking of
notes
visualization uh so we are getting
closer to our uh to our in our search
for all of these requirements that we
stated
above but Rome also didn't make the cut
because if we open Rome research
here
um this looks really cool you can create
links you can visualize them like we are
getting close in our requirements but
again there is some pricing involved if
you want all of the good stuff and again
all of this lives in the cloud there's
no way to open this in
vim and of course that is really
important
so enter
obsidian this is the tool
to go this is like the horrible attempt
at the obsidian logo which looks like
this
here that's my attempt at the logo here
we go maybe I can just copy it here so
much
better so enter
obsidian
obsidian is what I arrived at after
years of experimentation
years obsidian is the best tool because
it literally ticks off all of these
requirements uh that we have
here so obsidian uses markdown files on
our machine they are stored
locally so if I go to my settle
Casten here you see like there's a ton
of files here but if I open it in vim
and if I enter settle cast and here
there is
all of these are markdown files that are
here in my in
my in my not taking system this is my
obsidian Vault that I can open in Vim so
all of my files here are locally
available on my
machine an obsidian Vault so in in
obsidian there's this concept of a vault
so when you open obsidian you're opening
a vault a and a vault is nothing more
than a collection of markdown files and
obsidian is a way to to edit and
visualize markdown
files but it also allows you to do very
powerful things with your
files so if
I uh let's
see go out of this drawing because I'm
I'm doing this within obsidian right
this is so cool I'm doing I'm drawing
but I also can access my notes Here so
if I uh let's
see let's create a new note and this is
just the
demo demo
so you can link notes by doing double
brackets so like here I'm I'm linking to
this drawing that I did and maybe this
reminds me of the tle cast in obsidian
course that I created I don't know I'm
just linking notes this is how you can
link notes and if I then open the local
graph local graph
here here we see that these links now
they are um these notes have now these
links and they are
visualized so we can link noes and
visualize
them if you do this over several years
diligently and you always link noes to
other noes a graph emerges that's going
to look like
this so my system is 3,100 noes
currently
3,148 you can see it down here in the
bottom here and this is my obsidian
graph now all of these notes they are
linked together somehow and there are
also a few notes that are not linked yet
but what's powerful about this is that
you can see these dots appear here that
have a lot of notes so here we see that
this dot called School apparently is a
very important thing in my in my not
taking system well that's correct
because school is my my passion project
here there's another one like this note
was called
cks This is weight loss like you can see
you can visually see elements in your
not taking system that are important to
you and sometimes this leads to
surprises like if over time
something let's see yeah here like
apparently this ckss note has received a
lot of links and apparently this has
been or is a very important thing in my
life well it is this certified
kubernetes security expert was a big
effort that I did so this is one way of
visualizing notes another way is we can
use canvas so um let's see we have the
settle cast and course
convas uh let's see settle
confus here this is a convas that I
created to create my tle Casten course
so I take all of these notes and I move
them around and I put them in the right
order and this has been an extremely
powerful way of structuring my own
thoughts when creating this course so I
could move these around and think well
this fits much better there and this one
doesn't fit here so it should be moved
over there and it's super powerful to to
have the ability to play with your notes
like this and create
overviews and then there's of course
excal draw where I can even do like uh
uh let's see insert any
file and let's see can I insert
uh
Lumen uh as embeddable here yeah so now
I'm I'm embedding this
oops now I'm embedding this
note like insert any file
Lumen as embeddable so now I've embedded
this file into this drawing and I can
start like attaching things Crea
creating things adding icons this is
also what I did in this massive drawing
in this video that I created with
160,000 views now about my whole neovim
workflow I use excal draw in obsidian to
visualize things but okay I'm I'm I'm
getting a bit distracted with the
visualization stuff the PO is across
this is very um important so we can
visualize obsidian allows you uh to
to uh obsidian has great search
functionality so let's see if you open
this here you can see that you can
search for path file tags sections so
it's really useful to find your notes
quickly uh with lightning
speed and it also allows you to sync
notes across all of your devices so you
can you can have the obsidian app on
your phone you can open up your not
taking system
um if you have an i if you have Apple
devices you can use iCloud to sync your
Vault between between devices so I store
my Vault on my Mac I can open it on my
iPhone and then Apple sync handles the
syncing between these
devices there's also obsidian sync so
say you are in a situation where you
have a Macbook and you have a Linux
laptop and you want your notes to be
available at both you can either use git
obsidian git and this is done I show you
this in my obsidian 101 course or you
can use obsidian sync this is a paid
service it's like what is it uh obsidian
Sync It's like $5 a month or
something uh here $4 a month I I I had
this for like a year it's a nice way to
support the project because I haven't
even said this but obsidian is
completely for free no problem ing no
you download the app and use it
and it's compatible with
Vim so can search we can link
notes we can run scripts because we have
all of our markdown files available um
we can use Vim with our markdown files
and therefore we can customize our
editing and reading
experience everything is stored in
markdown file files we can do anything
we want with our
files so my no taking system is
completely built as having obsidian as
the
bases
base
obsidian and then have it fully
compatible with vim and it's important
because there are going going to be
situations where you are either going to
have only access to the obsidian app for
example on your phone like it's possible
to use fim on an iPhone but I don't
recommend it so there are situations
where you only have obsidium or there
are situations where you only have the
command line well if you choose this
approach by taking the obsidian vault as
the basis as the the overarching sort of
framework for your notetaking system
this allow you to have a lot of
flexibility flexibility and
portability of your entire no taking
system so I
recommend use obsidian the concept of an
obsidian Vault and keep it compatible
with vim and the other way
around because there are also systems
you can create with Vim only but those
are not necessarily going to be fully
compatible with obsidian
um so yes this is super important
because we stay in full control of our
files my my entire settle
cast is almost one gig and this also
contains images it contains some Excel
files everything is in
there but it's mostly markdown files
three 3,150 markdown
files
and I can do whatever I want with these
files this is my this is just a a a
directory on my system and I can copy
that and back it up to encrypt it and
back it up to wherever I want I can
distribute it wherever I want I back
this up into git and I can pull it
wherever I am if I have my SSH key to my
GitHub account I can pull it in I can
and have access to my notes wherever
from the command line I can run a
container with my ttle Casten in it I
containerized my ttle Casten so in this
series we are also going to be like
writing when we were learning Bash one
of the most fun things I did was to run
create bash scripts to work with my ttle
cast to work with my Nott taking system
so if you want to be following with my
sort of tutorial journey into Linux in
into containers I highly highly
recommend you don't use notion but you
use obsidian with markdown files and we
are going to be using Vim to interact
with these files in combination with
obsidian but we are going to be learning
about no taking in both obsidian and Vim
and how to edit those how to run scripts
on those and it's just going to be a fun
experience if you do it this way and I'm
not saying this because I
you you necessarily need to join this
playlist Journey but it is basically
just what I arrived at after 2,000 hours
of researching and practicing the settle
cast method because that is what we are
going to work towards is to build a tle
cast invm obsidian like I have done in
my
course so if you're interested in
learning more about the tett C method I
highly recommend you either uh look into
this course this has been is already
getting five star reviews and and
already have 24 students getting a lot
of positive feedback on that just
yesterday someone was shouting it out on
LinkedIn super nice but there is also
the obsidian 101 course and if you check
out this course this will show you a
it's a a quick start you get a full not
taking system in one hour so it's it's
super cheap it's all you need to get
started it will implement the para
method for you and you can start taking
notes today because that's the most
important thing here guys stop watching
videos stop researching just use
obsidian and start taking notes that's
the most important
thing so these are this course is my
life's work it's 2,000 hours condensed
in 2 hours
and this is also a good course but if
the best value honestly is just to join
my school Community because if you join
my school
Community then you are going to get
unlimited access to all of my courses
it's currently $29 there's a price
increase coming soon and it's $29 a
month it's $1 less than $1 a day and
then you get unlimited access to all of
my courses about Vim neovim my entire
dot files walk through my kubernetes
fundamentals course everything is in
here including the two courses that I
just showed you about not
taking and there is a community of
people of fellow not takers who are
there to help you myself included and
there is already like 540 pages of
knowledge here that you can search by
searching obsidian for example you can
get all of the PO the posts on obsidian
here and also we you we have weekly Q&A
calls three times a week there is a
one-hour call with me and the community
where you have the ability to ask
questions and every day we have a few
study hall a few hours where you can
gather and take notes together and work
on your
certifications so that was it for this
video in conclusion
use obsidian start taking notes today
have it compatible with Vim in markdown
files and in the next video we're going
to look into how to actually start
taking notes and which methods we can
use for taking notes in our obsidian
