Obsidian has been a great tool for me to learn and practice markdown.
Application is paramount for sure! I could read up and learn about something on optimizing health or sports performance, but if I never apply it to my own life what was the point of learning about it?
Monetization via sharing what I have learned and experienced has been a new experience, but it does add motivation to my learning process, as I now want to make sure I'm learning at a deeper level and applying everything I learned and taking meaningful experiences from what I learned in order to best share my newfound knowledge and to add value to the world in some way.
ありがとう、先生!
