    Any meditators here?

    I've read a ton of stuff about the benefits of meditation. It's a case of East meets West, where scientists today are heavily investigating the benefits of this simple (but not easy) practice. I use an app on my phone called Insight Timer, where I do 10 minutes a day of silencing my mind. It...

    Kanban for the win! AMA

    I am a fan of using Kanban for maximising my productivity. Below is a brief video introduction to what it is and why it works. Most people have never heard of the term. It was new to me about 3 years ago. But since then, I have adopted it as my primary means of organising my large number of...

    Welcome to the Productivity Forum!

    Office politics - does your workplace have them?

    I work for myself so I am out of the loop with regard to office politics. Does anyone here have office politics going on and how does it affect you?

    Welcome aboard Bee, and thank you for being a founding member. Getting forums going is always hard in the beginning. It is all about getting a critical mass of members, after which it feeds on itself like a hungry shoal of fish! What are you writing, or what have you written? What do you use...

    Memory Palaces - do you use them?

    I know going back to ancient history, there were those who used a Memory Palace to help them remember things. I believe it is also called Method of Loci? It seems our minds have evolved to understand location, no doubt for survival reasons. Then tagging an item into a location and using a...

    When first launched, the site was http. Now it is https which provides much better security. I added a SSL certificate today and all is fine and dandy. Anyone going to the http link will get redirected to the https version.

    How to set a hook for adding subsequent text

    When adding a bunch of new flashcards to your Knowledge Tree, it helps if you know where they will end up! So, you can set a "Hook". By doing so, all subsequent additions will follow on from this section. To set the Hook, do this: 1. Decide on the "node" of your Knowledge Tree where you want...

    Is Incremental Reading any different to highlighting a book?

    You're welcome Bee. The whole Incremental Reading thing took me quite a while to get my head around. Like any good idea, there are many variations around it. Consider it a fulcrum to pivot around for a method that suits you.

    Have you considered moving from Anki to SuperMemo?

    Another potential solution I am considering, is to highlight the pdf and then, once I have finished either the chapter or ebook, I could then run it through something like https://www.sumnotes.net/ I haven't tried the service yet but it seems it can strip out all the pdf highlights into one...

    Is Incremental Reading any different to highlighting a book?

    That would be very hard to do. However, this is a brief overview of what it is: Source: https://www.supermemo.com/help/read.htm However, if you really want to go into detail, you will find this gargantuan resource for incremental reading: http://help.supermemo.org/wiki/Incremental_learning I...
