# 日常分享 - LifeOS > 日常分享 - Turn daily notes, tasks, projects, and reviews into an Obsidian life system ## guide - [Get LifeOS](/guide/overview/overview.md) - [Usage](/guide/overview/usage.md): Basic can refer to the following steps:Example Vault SelectionScenario 2Scenario 3 After extracting the complete package, the main folders are: According to your usage scenario, select one of the scenarios, and follow the steps one by one! - [What is Obsidian](/guide/intro/obsidian.md): It introduces itself on the official website as follows: Obsidian is the private and flexible note‑taking app that adapts to the way you think. LifeOS uses Obsidian as its implementation tool, mainly to leverage its powerful customization abilities and rich plugin ecosystem! Obsidian is a private and flexible note-taking application that adapts to your thinking patterns, as described on its official website. It is a Markdown-based note-taking software with several distinctive advantages that make it stand out among other note-taking tools: - [What is LifeOS](/guide/intro/life-os.md): Obsidian LifeOS is a life management system built on Obsidian—a simple, effective, and user-friendly Obsidian template ready to use out of the box! Most Obsidian templates overwhelm beginners by installing dozens of community plugins and exposing their complex functionalities all at once. This forces new users to painstakingly learn each plugin's usage, leaving them little time to focus on actually taking notes. LifeOS takes a different approach by creating a dedicated plugin specifically for its template! With this plugin, you don’t need any programming knowledge—simple visual clicks allow you to effortlessly create periodic notes and PARA notes. Just read through the LifeOS tutorial, and you'll quickly master the template. - [What is a Second Brain](/guide/intro/second-brain.md) - [Prerequisites](/guide/beginner-guide/pre-knowledge.md) - [Core Concepts](/guide/beginner-guide/core-concept.md): Read this Core Concepts guide all the way through because it is the key to the whole LifeOS system: you do not need perfect folders on day one. Use pressure-free capture, then easy retrieval through theme tags and indexes. - [Template Syntax](/guide/beginner-guide/template-syntax.md): LifeOS currently has two template syntaxes. Choose the one that matches your version: LifeOS Pro / Aino LifeOS: use the built-in syntax, such as {{snapshot:Project}}, {{date}}, and {{tags}}. This syntax does not require Templater.Community / open-source LifeOS: only supports the legacy Templater syntax, such as <% LifeOS.Project.snapshot() %>. If you use the open-source version, do not replace those templates with the new syntax. - [Start LifeOS in 10 Minutes](/guide/quick-start/getting-started.md): If you are new to LifeOS, do not start by configuring everything from scratch. Open the prepared example vault first, follow the 4 steps below, and learn the workflow by seeing it work. This example vault uses the basic LifeOS plugin and is meant for practicing the record, theme, and task workflow in Obsidian. After the example vault works, read Core Concepts all the way through. It is the key to understanding LifeOS: pressure-free capture, then easy retrieval through theme tags and indexes. - [Download the Example Vault](/guide/quick-start/download-vault.md): This is the recommended starting point for new users: download the example vault, open it in Obsidian, and see how records, themes, and tasks flow through LifeOS. This vault uses the basic LifeOS plugin and contains Obsidian .obsidian settings. - [Basic Feature Overview](/guide/quick-start/free-feature-overview.md): All features in the Basic are completely free! Visit Youtube for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-hD48UYRts - [Pro Version Feature Overview](/guide/quick-start/pro-feature-overview.md): The Pro version includes all the features of the Basic! In addition, it offers the following Pro features: Visit Youtube for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Ph_j00_Sc - [How to Start Using LifeOS](/guide/quick-start/how-start.md) - [How to Update LifeOS](/guide/quick-start/how-update.md) - [Example Vault Guides](/guide/example-vaults/index.md): LifeOS Pro example vaults can be opened directly in Obsidian. The complete package's Example Vault folder contains five filled examples—Memos, IPO, GTD, PARA, and OPC. Learn in one, then open its matching Blank Vault as your own main vault. Start with the bottleneck you need to remove now: The default recommendation runs from easiest to hardest: Memos -> IPO -> GTD -> PARA -> OPC. Start with Memos when daily capture is not stable; skip ahead when you already have a clear bottleneck. Memos is a time-based foundation that can grow into IPO, GTD, or PARA. The blank versions are LifeOS Pro Memos Blank Vault, LifeOS Pro IPO Blank Vault, LifeOS Pro GTD Blank Vault, LifeOS Pro PARA Blank Vault, and OPC LifeOS Blank Vault. They keep settings, folder skeletons, templates, and essential query pages without sample projects or business data. Open the specific vault folder in Obsidian. Blank vaults do not duplicate plugin binaries; if needed, copy the plugins from the complete package's top-level Plugin/ folder into .obsidian/plugins/. - [PARA Example Vault](/guide/example-vaults/para.md): LifeOS Pro PARA Vault is the best complete starter vault for Obsidian LifeOS. Periodic notes keep the timeline, while projects, areas, resources, and archives organize long-term knowledge. - [IPO Example Vault](/guide/example-vaults/ipo.md): LifeOS Pro IPO Vault splits knowledge work into input, themes, and output. It fits writers, researchers, indie builders, and people who often produce proposals. - [GTD Example Vault](/guide/example-vaults/gtd.md): LifeOS Pro GTD Vault starts with execution. It puts unclear material into the inbox, then turns it into next actions, waiting-for items, someday items, projects, or reference material. - [OPC LifeOS Example Vault](/guide/example-vaults/opc.md): OPC LifeOS Vault is a LifeOS Pro example vault for a one-person company. It splits solo operations into a CEO dashboard, seven departments, input/output pipelines, and AI dashboards. - [Memos Template Quick Start](/guide/example-vaults/memos.md): LifeOS Pro Memos Vault is recommended for Logseq, flomo, and usememos users. It demonstrates continuous capture with two sample daily notes and one sample weekly review; use LifeOS Pro Memos Blank Vault as your own main vault afterward. - [Configuration](/guide/config/index.md): Typically, you don’t need to modify the settings, as LifeOS provides an out-of-the-box example vault with all configurations pre-adapted for its directory structure. You may need to adjust the plugin settings in the following scenarios: Changing the default directories in the example vault, such as the locations for periodic notes, topic notes, etc.Modifying headings in the example vault’s diary templates, like "Habit Tracking," "Project List," or adjusting headings in seasonal templates, such as "Key Dimensions."Using a self-hosted Usememos service.Subscribing to a remote calendar. So, how do you access the LifeOS plugin settings? Here’s a step-by-step guide using the LifeOS Pro plugin as an example: First, click the gear icon in the bottom-left corner. Next, select "LifeOS Pro" from the third-party plugins in the sidebar. Each setting in the plugin comes with a description. Adjust them according to your needs—no further details are provided here. - [Differences from the Pro Version](/guide/free/distinct-with-pro.md): The Pro version includes all features of the Basic. For detailed documentation on Pro version features, see: Pro Version Features - [Creating Notes](/guide/free/create-note.md): Based on LifeOS Basic 1.20.8 - [Task Management](/guide/free/task-management.md): Task collection and indexing Task organization - [Goal Management](/guide/free/target-management.md): Annual goals from planning to implementation - [Time Management](/guide/free/time-management.md): Friends often ask me how to practice time management in Obsidian LifeOS? 📊 For time management in Obsidian LifeOS, my recommendation is to only track your time spent on key matters, as these are the things you truly need to invest significant time and energy in. If you're spending too little time on key matters, you need to spend more! 📈 Tracking unimportant matters is actually a waste of time. According to the PARA organization method, each project is your "key matter," so we only need to track time spent on these! 🔑 In practice, many people mistakenly think this can be automatically tracked, but in reality, the time spent on each project every day needs to be recorded manually, because only you know where your time went! However, you can use tools like the Pomodoro timer 📱 or Timemator 🖥️ to track time. My method is to use computer screen-on time as the total daily time spent, and Timemator records the time spent on various projects each day. This way, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly project lists can automatically calculate the proportion of time spent. 📅 Summary - [Differences from the Basic](/guide/pro/distinct-with-free.md): The Pro version includes all features of the Basiced documentation on Basic featurBasiceatures](../free/Basic.md) - [Obsidian vs Aino](/guide/pro/aino-desktop.md): LifeOS Pro will continue as the Obsidian plugin path. Aino Desktop is a new standalone desktop app path. They are not replacements for each other; they are two Markdown Workspaces for opening and operating on the same kind of note assets. If you like the Obsidian plugin ecosystem, themes, custom workspaces, and local scripts, Obsidian + LifeOS Pro remains a good choice. If you want a more out-of-the-box AI note workspace, Aino Desktop is worth considering. - [Theme Notes](/guide/pro/theme-note.md) - [Home View](/guide/pro/home-view.md) - [Habit Statistics Guide](/guide/pro/habit-statistics.md): LifeOS Pro reads standard Markdown check-ins from daily notes and summarizes completions, streaks, and trends. The feature is enabled by default, while built-in example templates keep it disabled and contain no preset habits. Enable and configure it only when it supports your own goals. - [Task Creation](/guide/pro/task-create.md) - [Task View](/guide/pro/task-view.md): Permanent sidebar task management, which can also be dragged to the big calendar for schedule planning! See Task Creation for creating tasks. - [Calendar View](/guide/pro/calendar.md) - [Calendar Subscription](/guide/pro/calendar-sub.md): LifeOS Pro supports multiple ways to subscribe to remote calendars, allowing you to centrally manage all your schedules in Obsidian. - [Pomodoro Timer](/guide/pro/pomodoro.md): The Pomodoro Timer is a built-in focus timing tool in LifeOS Pro, helping you better manage your time and improve work efficiency. - [Advanced Lists](/guide/pro/advanced-list.md): Each theme (PARA) has an index file (ending with .README or with the same name as the folder). In this index file, there are three types of advanced lists: "Theme Tasks", "Theme Bullets", and "Theme Files". These are used to index "Theme Tasks", "Theme Bullets", and "Theme Files" that are "tagged with the current theme tag" scattered throughout the entire repository! - [Convenience Features](/guide/pro/convenient.md) - [The Complete Life Cycle of a Project](/guide/best-practice/project-life-cycle.md): How to use Obsidian for project management? Here, I'll use the "Writing LifeOS Tutorial" project as an example. When I decided to write a tutorial about LifeOS, and after evaluation, decided to manage and implement it as a "project"; First, I opened Obsidian and created a "Personal Brand/LifeOS-Tutorial-Writing" project through the "Theme Notes" form in the upper left corner, where "Personal Brand" is the "Area"; Then I set a deadline for the project and described in detail the results I expected. When the expected results are achieved, the project can be checked as completed and moved to the "Archive" folder; Afterward, in my daily notes, I recorded all ideas and inspirations about this "Personal Brand/LifeOS-Tutorial-Writing" project, while also listing some tasks to be done, and tagging these records with the corresponding "project" tag, i.e., "#Personal Brand/LifeOS-Tutorial-Writing"; When I have a block of time to focus on this project, I sit down and open the "LifeOS-Tutorial-Writing.README" file in the "Projects" folder. Browsing through all the records about the project in the "Tasks" and "Lists" modules not only helps me quickly enter the project context but also assists me in taking the next steps! - [Custom Workflow](/guide/best-practice/custom-workflow.md): Based on the theme note's "Input → Processing → Output" framework, through a unique theme tag system! You can turn off PARA mode, or start from the IPO Example Vault / GTD Example Vault and adapt it. - [Calendar Subscription](/guide/best-practice/calendar-sub.md): For detailed configuration methods, please refer to the documentation: Calendar Subscription. Here we mainly recommend some interesting practices! Besides being used for tasks, with ICS URL subscription, we can also achieve the following functions! - [How I Review](/guide/best-practice/how-review.md): Reviews mainly focus on tasks, projects, or goals within the current period, while simultaneously planning tasks, projects, or goals for the next period! - [Usememos Synchronization](/guide/best-practice/usememos-sync.md): Since Usememos synchronization involves "service deployment," it is considered a very advanced feature. Generally, you need to have a "development background" to complete it! Assuming you have already deployed the Usememos service, and the service address is www.your-memos.com; then, open that address, log in to the Usememos service via the web interface, and follow the instructions in the image below to generate an Access Token: Next, open the LifeOS settings page and fill in the API and Token according to the image below: By default, Usememos will automatically synchronize once when you first enter Obsidian, and then automatically synchronize every half hour afterward. Additionally, you can click the sidebar icon to perform manual synchronization: - [Integration with Thino](/guide/best-practice/thino.md): Reference document: Obsidian Knowledge Management | Integrating Thino into the LifeOS System Use Thino's WeChat recording feature to replace LifeOS's Usememos! - [Pro Features Overview](/guide/ai-integration/deepask.md): Deep Ask Plugin Quick Start Guide Get link: Deep Ask - [AI Coach 🤖](/guide/ai-integration/ai-coach.md) - [LifeOS Skill: AI Can Manage My Notes](/guide/ai-integration/lifeos-skill.md): I wrote a skill for LifeOS, and now AI can help manage my notes. I have used LifeOS for more than a year, and I still love the PARA + periodic notes system. But one problem kept getting in the way: the friction of recording was too high. An idea appears → open Obsidian → go to today's daily note → scroll to "Daily Record" → type → close it. Those few steps are enough for countless ideas to disappear into "I'll skip it this time." So last month I built an AI skill for LifeOS. - [LLMs.txt Document](/guide/ai-integration/LLMs.txt.md): We support LLMs.txt files, making the LifeOS documentation available to large language models. The following files are available for use, please add them to your large language model to chat with them: llms.txt：The main LLMs.txt filellms-full.txt：The complete LifeOS documentation - [How to Migrate from LifeOS to LifeOS Pro](/guide/migrate/index.md): Reference: Upgrade from LifeOS to LifeOS Pro Reference: Use LifeOS Pro in an Existing Repository Reference: How to Migrate Existing Knowledge Management to PARA? Reference: Use Existing Example Repository Reference: Import Notes - [Connections](/guide/basic/connection.md): So, how are the systems interconnected? - [Retrieval](/guide/basic/retrieval.md): So, how can we quickly retrieve notes? - [Review](/guide/basic/review.md): The review mainly focuses on the projects within this cycle, planning the tasks for the next cycle while reviewing.Weekly reviews cover this week's daily notes, monthly reviews summarize the weekly reviews, and quarterly reviews reflect on the monthly reviews. - [Main System](/guide/core/main-system.md): LifeOS core adopts two systems: a knowledge management system and a periodic notes system. The former uses the PARA method, managing knowledge along the dimensions of "Projects," "Areas," and "Resources," while the latter uses time as a dimension, managing tasks/goals/time through logging "Daily notes," "Weekly Notes," "Monthly Notes," "Quarterly Notes," and "Annual Notes." - [Sub System](/guide/core/sub-system.md): Aspect-oriented programming - Wikiwand Beneath the two main systems mentioned above, there are "Task Management," "Goal Management," and "Time Management" subsystems, which I mainly operate through "Periodic Notes": - [FREE](/guide/readme/free.md): Visit Youtube for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-hD48UYRts - [PRO](/guide/readme/pro.md): Get link: LifeOS Pro Visit Youtube for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Ph_j00_Sc Discover the transformative features of LifeOS Pro！ ## case - [A Day with Obsidian LifeOS](/case/daily-workflow.md): This article shows a practical day-to-day workflow with Obsidian, LifeOS Pro, Calendar Pro, and DeepAsk. It is written as a routine you can copy, not as a feature catalog. - [Manage a Full Project with LifeOS Pro](/case/project-management.md): Project management is not about creating more folders. It is about keeping goals, tasks, references, and reviews connected under the same theme. In LifeOS Pro, that starts with a theme note. - [Run a Useful Weekly Review with LifeOS](/case/weekly-review.md): Weekly reviews often fail because you try to remember the whole week from scratch. LifeOS works better when tasks, daily notes, and theme tags have already captured the evidence. - [A Research Workflow with Obsidian LifeOS](/case/research-workflow.md): Research work often breaks in two places: you save more and more references, but no conclusion emerges; or you write long notes, but nothing turns into action. LifeOS theme notes help keep sources, questions, conclusions, and tasks in one context. - [Make Obsidian Notes Askable with DeepAsk](/case/ai-powered-notes.md): Many people connect AI to a note app and only use it to summarize one article. That is useful, but it is not the strongest Obsidian + DeepAsk workflow. The better pattern is asking questions against your own knowledge base to find links, conflicts, and next actions. ## plugin - [Plans](/plugin/lifeos/pricing.md) - [Basic](/plugin/lifeos/life-os.md): Visit Youtube for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-hD48UYRts - [Pro Features](/plugin/lifeos/life-os-pro.md): Get link: LifeOS Pro Visit Youtube for more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Ph_j00_Sc Discover the transformative features of LifeOS Pro！ - [Data Privacy](/plugin/lifeos/privacy.md): Your data security and privacy are our top priorities. - [Plans](/plugin/calendar/pricing.md): - [Pro Features](/plugin/calendar/calendar-pro.md): Get link: Calendar Pro - [Data Privacy](/plugin/calendar/privacy.md): Your data security and privacy are our top priorities. - [Plans](/plugin/deepask/pricing.md): - [Pro Features Overview](/plugin/deepask/deepask.md): Deep Ask Plugin Quick Start Guide Get link: Deep Ask - [Data Privacy](/plugin/deepask/privacy.md): Your data security and privacy are our top priorities. - [Plans](/plugin/remosidian/pricing.md): - [Remosidian Overview](/plugin/remosidian/remosidian.md): Search and ask your Obsidian vault from your phone, without moving it to the cloud.
