Video Description

Hi Friends, my name is Callum aka wanderloots. In this video I walkthrough why I migrated to Obsidian and how you can future proof your note-taking with 5 of my favourite features. I touch on why Obsidian is the best app for your PKM system (personal knowledge management), how to get started with Obsidian, and how you can use the different settings, plugins, and templates to augment your note-taking, with a view to an AI-assisted future 👀 In this video, I explain on how I use non-linear note taking in Obsidian to improve my notes, knowledge, and idea generation 📚 I have a related video that goes through a complete overview of Obsidian, including all of the main settings to get you started with your second brain 🧠: https://youtu.be/d2BkvqbTPjk I hope you enjoy! ✨ P.S.

I am an intellectual property lawyer, patent agent, blockchain specialist, photographer, animator, videographer, writer, and studied engineering. I quit my job to pursue a life of creativity while teaching people along the way. The world is changing more rapidly than ever before. Learning how to deal with change and recalibrate is the best skill I can learn, and hopefully the best skill I can teach you ✨
