Workbook help: 10-19 Define your system’s scope

Would be amazing if you could share your system/thought process :slight_smile:

I’ve seen where @Mike_Quebec started and yeah, it would! I’m fascinated to know where you landed.

To be honest, no real secret there.

I really start with the book and follow the instruction.

The end result was a really big mess. But… and a really big BUT…

DO NOT AIM FOR PERFECTION!

You won’t like it, the words, the organisation, etc. So What… it can be changed… you just don’t have to change everything all at once.
Here’s my main categories:

  • 00-09 How I’m organised (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    10-19 People I care (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    20-29 Stuff I do (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    30-39 Stuff I need to do but hate doing (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    40-49 Stuff I know or need to know (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    50-59 Stuff I have (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    60-69 Stuff I want (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    70-79 Where I’m from (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    80-89 Unknown stuff (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)
    90-99 Old stuff (MacOS-M1/iCloud/Google Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox)

Between ( ) you have the location of where they are. So, it’s a link to those place. Because, yes, I have stuff on my mac, on Google Drive, dropbox or even on OneDrive for work.

Because some topics can be found everywhere I started to reserved some sub digit:
XX.20 to XX.29 are reserved for my professional work. Example:
21.00 All the stuff realated to the course IGL601
15.21 People I care - Related to my course IGL601
43.21 Legal knowledge specific to the course IGL601

These subsection are reserved everywhere for
.01 To organised.
.03 Tools, and howto
.04 Abstracts, personnal notes
.05 Training
.06 Norms and standards

I’m I done, nope! But, it is a step in the right direction… I was surprised how easy it has become to find more stuff…

Is it perfect? NO! but it is, at least so much better than before.
