   Excellent app, worth a try

   I tried Habitica and Remente previously (both cost a lot each month) and Cerefine is leaps and bounds ahead. It has so many different features that are useful for me, I use it with Evernote (I think Notion would work well too) and its perfect for keeping me on track.

   The kind of software that may change your life

   Perhaps you know someone who swears by Obsidian, it may seem like a cult of overly devoted people for how passionate they are, but it's not without reason

   I've been using Obsidian for over 3 years, at a point in my life when I felt I had to handle too much information and I felt like grasping water not being able to remember everything I wanted, language learning, programming, accounting, university, daily tasks. A friend recommended it to me next to Notion (of which he is a passionate cultist priest) and I reluctantly picked it and fell in love almost immediately.

   Obsidian seems very simple, like a notepad with folder interface, similar to Sublime Text, but the ability to link files together in a Wiki style allows you to organize ideas in any way you want, one file may lead to a dozen or more ideas that are related

   If you want to do something specific, Obsidian has a plethora of community created plugins that expand the functionality, in my case, I use obsidian to organize my classes both as a teacher and as a student, using local databases, calendars, dictionaries, slides, vector graphic drawings, excel-like tables, Anki connection, podcasts, and more

   My personal knowledge-base of choice

   I've been using Obsidian for more than a year. It's been great. I think it offer a great balance of control, flexibility and extensibility. What is more, you own your own data, that's been a must-have feature for me. I just can't imagine putting all my knowledge into something that I don't have control over.

   I think two of the most popular alternatives that people consider are Logseq and Roam Research. Although Logseq is a bit different, it's considered compatible with Obsidian. Supposedly, you can use them with a shared database (files. Both use simple text files for storage). I tried that once, a few months ago. It worked, yet it messed up a bit my Obsidian files ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

  Cerefine: Notion keeps all long form documents & data, while Cerefine keeps all the day to day things like todos, project kanban boards, habits, goals, and timed focus sessions under control in a seamless, beautiful way (without me having to structure everything manually).

• [Method] How I set my routine to work in the office

  After getting the job this routine creates a problem for me like I have to wake at 8 AM in the morning and it was very difficult for me. I could not work or think or do any productive things because I do not sleep enough. Most of the time I reached late and It really hurt my reputation in the office. So this was a sign for me to change myself to be productive. I started using Timer which is available on the Mobile... Source: about 4 years ago
