Start with one part of life: save what you need to remember, add a little context and return when it is time to decide. A few spaces and tags can be enough to begin.
Choose one problem for this week
“Organise my entire life” is too big a task to begin with. Preparing a weekend away, remembering gift ideas or collecting references for a purchase are concrete starting points.
Choose one. For a few days, save its notes, links and documents in the same place. The goal is to find what you need for that plan.
Capture without demanding a perfect format
Walking? Record an idea. Received a PDF? Save the file. Found a recommendation? Share the link. CUBE brings different formats together and prepares each capture as a note.
Add a sentence when the reason is not obvious: who recommended it, what you want to check or which project it belongs to. That context often helps more than lots of tags.
Separate contexts and bring plans together
Spaces separate broad areas such as Personal and Work. Tags group topics or plans within them: “Birthday”, “Home” or “Madrid”.
Start with one space and one tag. When a note leads to another, explore its connections; when something changes, add a comment. Your system can grow with your use.
Bring what you saved back to a decision
Before buying a gift, find what you discussed with that person. Before travelling, review your bookings. If you remember the question but not the note, try asking CUBE.
A brief review after a plan ends closes the loop: what you chose, what worked and what you want to remember next time. Saving information becomes useful when you use it again.
- Today: pick a plan and save a first note.
- This week: add things that relate to it.
- When deciding: consult, check and record the result.
Start with a birthday

Questions that often come next
How many spaces and tags do I need?
Start with ones that meet a current need. Personal and one tag for your first plan can be enough; add structure when you need it.
Do I have to migrate all my notes first?
No. Try a new plan and bring older references across when you need them. You can discover what helps without starting with a big clean-up.
