Current Overview of Areas I track in my @NotionHQ

Each Area Page is an Action oriented Dashboard unique to the features of that area.

An Area is collection/category of activities, stages & events managed and cultivated over time.
My Nutrition area for example is where I have table, galleries & notes related to my nutritional health, like my meal plans, supplements, eating principles or dietary notes.
I associate the following other databases with Areas

Projects - A Collection of Tasks with a specific outcome and near-term deadline.
Problems - An Obstacle or Issue I want to overcome.
Experiments - A habit, tool, or other activity I'm trying out.
Topics - Related categories.
Projects feed into Areas
My Home Dashboard shows Projects, Areas, References & Quick Actions to quickly create or make a decision.

I keep a list of Projects grouped by a special Slot field which I use to pin projects to focus on for the week(s)
Quick Actions to get in and out of notion or focus on the high level.

I prefer to use notion for solo-project management & planning.

The hierarchy helps me stay focused and tie-up lose ends.
When I trigger a quick action or update a project, which are all usually associated to a project, my Areas section on my main homepage filters to only show me recently updated Areas.

I can quickly hop into an Area Dashboard and find info quickly to take action.
Using Notion as a Personal Cockpit will help you take flight and reach your goals.

Keep it simple, and only show the most important info on each page.

Get focused with a Dashboard-Driven use for notion.

Roam is a Writing & Thinking Tool that lets you outline, reference, connect, search, discover, and remix chunks of thought & information.
The core & most important feature in Roam is the 'Block'

A block is like a bullet. It can be a word, sentence, paragraph, or other media.

That Block can have other blocks nested under it. Image

Maps of knowledge are a valuable tool in navigating domains of information at a glance.

A good map:
- Titles & Categorizes
- Shows Scale & Relativity
- Orients Direction
- Uses Symbolic identifiers

Here are some great maps by @DominicWalliman creator of Domain of Science. 🗺

The Drama of the Gifted Child - Adaptation to what's missing.

My values, behavior & character have like a feedback loop or spiritual resonance molded to want I feel is missing in the world.

Filling in a void on a meta-level.

We all have a role to play. Free-will is fuzzy.
I have molded to what I believe the world needs:

1. We need more leaders.
2. We need to be more in-service of each other.
3. We need to remember that we are a part of nature.
4. We need to think of our actions beyond stage one. (Second-order effects)
5. We need to see how things are interconnected. (Systems-thinking)
6. We need to develop ourselves so that we can bear the burden of suffering.
7. We need to combine multiple skills unique to our physiology & psychology.

My Skill Domain Journey 🦊

1. Sales (Direct Selling)
2. Design (Print, Graphic, UX)
3. Business (Economics, Finance, Marketing)
4. Software Engineer (Front-End, Mobile) [Current - 6yrs]

So much time has passed that I forgot my first skill was selling.
I think that's why my friends thought I would be on youtube not twitter.

I built a significant amount of communication, public speaking & Emotional Intelligence skills, very strong in-person presence, and charisma.
Most people miscategorize me as an extrovert because of those strengths, when I actually thrive in solitude & reflection.

I need to think of how to utilize these superpowers 🤔

Refined Thinker with strong People ability.
