Ohhh!! This is great. I've long aspired to get my Obsidian Vault going. A question for you ... how often do you check in on your vault? Is it only when you're capturing notes/ writing or do you have some other frequency?
Obsidian actually functions like my second brain, and I use it to capture any idea I'm having. I have a writing practice that goes alongside its use, and that has me in Obsidian every day-- but also, I'm forgetful (ADHD) so I am in there periodically throughout the day to find notes to help me complete any and all tasks I have otherwise. My system isn't perfect yet though, and I have lots of lose ends and it's not the prettiest as far as the vaults I've seen. But, I do think that is the best part of Obsdian and this system, you're not building a system to use, but letting one develop out of your use. Feel free to ask any other specific questions, if you need!
This was a really interesting read. It makes me think about when I am drafting a post how I look at all my other drafts to see if there are any connected concepts that I can all fold into one to create a robust offering. Thank you for this breakdown.
