5. Choose the Right Tools

Focus on selecting tools based on their intended purpose and specific features that meet your productivity needs, rather than trying to use every tool for every task.

1. Core Apps. Essential ones that serve as the Single Source of Truth for information storage and action management, making them irreplaceable in a productivity system.

2. Satellite Apps. Complement Core Apps by addressing specific needs, enhancing productivity through focused tasks like idea capture and workflow automation.

3. Intermediate Tools. Temporary solutions when core apps are  not so good at specific features.
