Why Im Not Setting Objectives in Obsidian in 2024 Nicole van der Hoeven 2024-01-05 | I've done a lot of thinking about why not to make resolutions in 2024. In 2023, I went a little overboard with OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) and that just sent me spiralling into overwork and burnout. That's not something I want to see happen again this year, so instead, I'm doing a yearly theme: a one-word direction for the rest of the year that will act as a North Star rather than a strict set of rules. I'm hoping this will allow me to be productive, but also keep me happy.// TIMESTAMPS00:00 Intro01:45 What I'm doing instead02:47 Obsidian setup// RELATED RESOURCES(podcast episode) 2024 Yearly Themes by @cortexFM : youtube.com/watch?v=cXexYmOHkas(book) Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle: amzn.to/3S40x5g(book) Can't Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation: amzn.to/3TLLm1P(book) Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less: amzn.to/3tv6ezT(book) Effortless: Make It Easier to Do What Matters Most: amzn.to/3vscaKi(book) Romancing the Shadow: A Guide to Soul Work for a Vital, Authentic Life: amzn.to/47ft5Ny(podcast) Deep Questions with Cal Newport: thedeeplife.com/listen---// ABOUT MESite: nicolevanderhoeven.comMastodon: https://pkm.social/@nicoleVideos for my work at Grafana Labs: youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-1Nqb2waX4WfNnD52U1Spo2z47yrIjwoAdobo & Avocados (with Marie Drake), a channel about intersectionality in tech: youtube.com/@adoboandavocadosBeyond the Character Sheet (with Leah Ferguson), a channel about TTRPGs: youtube.com/@beyondthecharactersheet// APPS I USE- Obsidian: https://obsidian.md- Readwise: readwise.io/nicole- Shortform: shortform.com/nicole- Reclaim: go.reclaim.ai/eg0tgbamp7cb- Snipd: link.snipd.com/Cx7S/nicole - Napkin: https://napkin.one/?via=nicole// GEARnicolevanderhoeven.com/gear// WANT TO SUPPORT ME?❤️ Join my Patreon and get my sample vault with templates: patreon.com/nicolevdh☕ Buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/nicolevdh⭐ Buy Obsidian for Everyone, my beginner course on Obsidian: courses.nicolevanderhoeven.com/o4eNote: Some of the links above are affiliate links, which means I may get a small percentage when you sign up using those links.
