Micro.publish plugin for Obsidian app as a way to post on micro.blog

This is my first time using the micro.publish plugin for Obsidian. This could be a great way for me to post on micro.blog. I’ll write drafts in iA Writer and then publish them on my MacBook when I get home. I could even skip iA Writer and just use Drafts for writing drafts. When I’m ready to publish, I could export them to Obsidian. I used to do all this in Drafts, but I think it would be better to have a separate place dedicated to writing since Drafts is currently my catch-all inbox.

Tot Pocket Mini Review

I Just Bought Tot Pocket!! Tot Pocket is a digital scratchpad app that only allows for 7 active notes, which may seem restrictive but is actually quite liberating. The Reason? I want a place to scribble notes, but only for active projects and Tot is lightning fast! With Drafts, I’m constantly filtering, searching, and switching between workspaces.

They continued to prioritize major updates to the Business Plan and were puzzled as to why their current users felt ignored. I’m not sure what was going on inside, but it felt as if someone had abruptly decided to change course.

My new understanding of Zettlekasten

I never quite understood the point of Zettelkasten until I saw this video—Implementing a Digital Zettelkasten using Block References in Roam Research with Beau Haan. The purpose of Zettelkasten is to allow you to have a clear, informed, and personal conversation, not to organize or summarize what you’ve read. It’s all about developing your own set of wisdom that you can convey in a way that people will believe. Your fleeting thoughts (fleeting note) are like gas that you need to condense into a liquid (literature note), using the reference source as a container (reference note), so that you can solidify that knowledge (permanent note).

It's time to be vulnerable.

I’m always a reserved person. But I think it’s time to learn how to share and be vulnerable. As Brené Brown once talked about vulnerability, when we numb hard feelings, we also numb joy, gratitude and happiness. So, I think it’s time for me to let all my thoughts, emotions and feelings surface to the world. Now is the great time to be fully alive, starting by posting on this blog.
