One tool that's been a real game-changer for me, even if it's not everyone’s talking about it, is Obsidian. I started using it to keep all my notes in markdown, which made organizing and linking ideas so much smoother. But what really flipped my approach was reading "How to Take Smart Notes" by Sönke Ahrens. It showed me how to create a solid process for capturing and developing my thoughts, and having that system in place has totally transformed the way I work. It just goes to show that sometimes the best tools aren’t the latest tech gadgets, but really well-thought-out processes that can be supported by versatile tools like Obsidian. It’s been a transformative shift for me.

Ablebits. It is an excel add in that lets you merge spreadsheets and compare data. It has many other powerful uses. We have used it for 13 years and can’t imagine not having it.
