The system is just excellent, works with any tag-capable app, easy to use and open but with enough rules to keep you on track. Thank you for taking the time to share it. It really works super well to organize my "Writing to Learn" or "Writing to think" documents. Also your presentation is very good.
Is it possible to make a video to show how to “transform” my P.A.R.A. folder structure into Forever ✱ Notes structure. It is probably just a necessary mind shift on my side, but I struggle with the transfer of Projects, Areas, Resources into the F✱N format. Thank you in advance.
I would also be very interested in this. Currently using PARA with associated folders (and occasionally sub folders). I can see how this would be more flexible but struggle with how to transition my structure with about 1000 notes
The framework has really helped me keep track of everything. Cleaning up my Notes, I’m find subfolders that I forgot I made or duplicate half finished notes
I use hubs for my book notes. I have a hub with sections for each chapter and the link to notes with important quotes and reflections from each chapter. It’s great! Thank you so much!
Hi Matthias, just another interesting video. The good point is that we can apply this system not only to Apple notes, but also for other apps like Onenote.
Super erklärt, Danke. Ich versuche seit Stunden das Journal in Notizen einzustellen. Leider klappen die Kurzbefehle nicht so richtig, bzw. um auf das heutige Datum zu kommen. Könntest du hierfür ein Video machen? Vllt. liegt es auch daran das ich die Wörter auf Deutsch reingeschrieben habe? Viele Grüße
I have one question, where could i put all this amounts of notes which will be linked to different hubs, or Home page .. Should i put all in one folder called Forever Notes, So it will be my storage Bin and I can access all through the system ... Home page, Collections, Hubs .. etc .... OR there is different way !?
I like your videos, but this one I don’t understand. What’s the difference between a hub and a folder? You didn’t really explain this in the video? It’d be helpful to know.
@@PhilipHollowaychannel fundamentally, with this framework you have no need for folders. It makes things more complicated when trying to search for things because you won’t always know what is in which folder. Functionally, they kind of work the same way because you’re connecting multiple smaller branches to the larger branch (multiple notes connected to one area - Hub/Folder). The difference is that you’re creating new notes/documents and linking between them which can all be done within notes without having to leave the note and go into the folders.
I think the general idea is that you can more easily navigate through your notes than if you had them in a large unstructured folder. I use Bear as my note taking app and since it uses tags as folders I’ve had to cudtomize Forever Notes to fit in with the app. In my hubs I have a couple direct links to important notes (max 5-10 usually) and then I’ve created a shortcut that takes the folder name (tag name) as the parameter and then opens that folder. That way I can easily navigate ti each folder from the hub. It collects all my important notes and all related folder into one note which work great in bear. Like this: ✱ Work - Work contacts - Another important work related note ## Clients - Client 1 (shortcut that opens the folder with the tag “work/clients/client 1”) - Client 2 ## Projects - … - … Might not be 100% Forever Notes but it’s a great adaptation for me with Bear at least
A hub is the overview and table of contents for that topic and since hubs live in the Home note using folders would undermine that central point of your digital note/knowledge life. Think of the Home note like the Home Button/Swipe Up, it's where you go to jump to everything else.
I think of a hub like a table of context that helps you find a note. If a note were a page in a book, the hub would be the table of context that tells me where the note is, but cooler cause it’s a link to the note.

"Hubs transform you from a passive note taker to an active knowledge builder." *Brilliant.

A video like this is in the pipeline. Thank you for your input!

So happy to hear Forever ✱ Notes works well for you!
I'm currently building my Finance Hub, and would love to see some templates on the different notes like Financial Goals or Short Term Savings etc. 😊
I use hubs for my book notes. I have a hub with sections for each chapter and the link to notes with important quotes and reflections from each chapter. It’s great! Thank you so much!

Thanks again! I’m looking forward to your Journal Video!
Yay, thank you!

Just keep them in your default Notes folder. Less work :)
✱ Good One but try to bring Videos Fast ( this framework really helped me )
I’m trying my best 😉
Where can find/create cover images like in video?
For specifically Notes? I think it’s just attaching an image before adding Title text
Nope, i mean like Black and white hubs header
@@bardak81do you mind a timestamp so I can see what you’re referencing? Idk if I can help you for sure, but I can try.
2:46 - like here?
@ Thanx you. But I mean The image on top in The ✱ Home note
At 1:57 I think they mean?
Hi Matthias! Woher in Österreich kommst du denn? ;) Liebe Grüße aus Oberösterreich!
Ich lebe in Wien ❤️
Isn’t this the same idea as Maps of content from Obsidian users?
It’s a simpler version based on Nick Milo’s MOC.
