The Ultimate Folder System: A quixotic journey to ACE

[nickmilo]

@KarenHume I’m happy to hear you actually found a way to use STIR to make an organizing decision.

@jenkuo Ah yes, where does Compass go…

@jenkuo

what about Compass? Does it belong in Atlas (space) or Efforts (importance)…they feel important to me, so I’m guessing Efforts?

I had the same question. I initially went with Efforts, just like you are thinking, and that can work. But for myself, I found I preferred it to be next to all of my other maps in Atlas. Specifically, I use Atlas/Maps/My/Compass

It felt good and grounding knowing I can go to ‘my maps’ and see an overview of all aspects of my life.

@jenkuo

what’s the main difference between the Ideas folder and Content folder in Atlas? How does it relate to the “Things” folder?

@Kenaz

Would you briefly touch upon how those with ACCESS should transition to ACE in their vault?

I’ll cover this completely by Aug 30th, 2023, but for now:

• Throw Cards, Extras, and Sources into Atlas
• Turn Spaces into Efforts
• Now you’ll have ACE. Play with that for a while
