I was initially drawn to Notion because of its flexibility and customization options. But the more I added to it, the more challenging it became to manage.
Writing went to waste and ideas didn't see the light of day. I had 100's of potential blog post ideas, but finding them was harder than it should have been. I had free writing that never turned into articles. I had notes that I'd taken from books and podcasts, but I had to drill down to see the content of the note. And I spent more time organizing my notes than actually using them.
So I started to look for a different solution and that's when I found Mem
1.Granular Search
Mem makes it easier to find and use your notes, eliminating the need to organize them. For example, if I'm looking for notes on a book I've read, I can just search for it and get the note. Or if I'm looking for podcast transcripts, I can search for that and get the notes. And if I'm looking for a phrase or a word, I can search for that and get related Mems.
2.Bidirectional Links
The biggest advantage Mem has over Notion is that it has bidirectional links. This helps me capture ideas the moment they occur, develop ideas when I'm writing, and create more content. I can also gather resources for an article in one place and organize my knowledge in a network system.
3.Project Management in Mem
With the ability to easily create projects, assign tasks, and set due dates, Mem makes project management simple and straightforward. I can quickly create projects, assign tasks to team members, and track progress. I can also get an overview of how projects are progressing and set reminders for upcoming tasks.
4.How Mem Helps me Create Cont
Mem has helped mecreate content in a few different ways.
First, I can quickly capture ideas and link them to related topics. This helps me easily find the ideas I need when I'm writing. I can also quickly add notes, tasks, and links when I'm researching or brainstorming. This helps me create content faster and stay focused. Finally, I can use the timeline view to quickly review all of my notes, tasks, and ideas. This helps me find the content I need quickly and start writing.
With Mem, I can also use tags to organize my notes and make them easier to find. For example, I can tag my notes with topics, books, podcasts, or even references to other notes. I can also use tags to quickly create my own knowledge base. I can search for topics and quickly find related notes, tasks, and ideas. This helps me quickly access the information I need and create content faster.
Conclusion
Switching from Notion to Mem has been a game-changer for my productivity and creativity. I'm able to quickly find and access my notes, tasks, and ideas, which has made it easier for me to create content. I'm also able to easily organize my notes and create my own knowledge base. All of this has helped me create content faster and take my ideas in new directions.
