Everything I do with my digital systems
What does it mean to run your life with digital tools?
Here’s a giant list of things I do with my digital system.
Ps here’s what my digital system looks like right now
I’ll keep updating it when I inevitably remember something else.
The point of this is to show you it’s not all about work, it’s not all about play, it’s about supporting life activities with digital tools if that’s what you want to do.
No one has to do all this. It’s what I choose to do right now because that makes me happy, it aligns with my interests, I have the time, and probably 100 other reasons. You do you!
So in no particular order…

All of this helps me reduce paper clutter, to search for what I need more easily and to work more intuitively with the information I deal with on a day to day basis in my life. This goes beyond work and home, but my hobbies and self-development as well. I find it really good fun and of course, very useful too.
