What's up with the Life Chart? It's unclear to me what It's keeping track of. Just a 1-10 Scale of my perceived effort in each area that week? or is there more to it?

Work Sessions , and a little about me
I'm curious to know more about how people are using work sessions. Also if anyone here is using Dee's system to manage construction projects or craft projects? I'm new to this and still getting familiar with the evergreen vault, training my routine around it and around the daily notes and logging/tagging. still slowed down a lot by thinking about where things should go and how. But the system is remarkable and I can see it getting easier very quickly. There's a lot of customizing I want to do also because I feel like my use case of this system is something I have not seen much example of on the internet. Work sessions are really sparking something for me as a feature of this system. It seems like a work session could go all day and almost become somewhat of it's own daily note but for a specific project or hub. I just do a lot of work with my hands in many different skilled domains and have been looking for something like this to record and manage all my different projects and I'm so excited to have found something that feels right and like it can grow and evolve with me and actually help me be more motivated and productive.

Thanks for that feedback. I haven’t started using Claude yet which I may eventually and that’ll probably help speed things up. Are you creating new work sessions each day you might work on that building remediation project and titling them the same or just returning to that existing session if you work on the same subject?

Both your input is so helpful thank you! I think my resistance to Claude is mostly not wanting to pay for it right now. Next reason would be I want to really learn how the system works without it, even though it does seem nice to be able to ask for direction from Claude, I’m not sure I would trust it fully, or have the right preferences from knowing the system myself to redirect it. And then it is just another thing to learn. So for now it’s one day at a time
Areas
I'm finding it challenging to reconcile what feel like certain hubs in my life into the area's that have been provided in the evergreen vault. For example. I've inherited several wooden boats. I also have multiple vehicles, each of these individual vessels or vehicles, feels like they deserve a hub. All are ongoing with various projects and knowledge that should be associated with each one. the question that's hard for me to answer here is. What area do they belong in? I suppose the system would say, it depends on *why* I have the vessel or vehicle? so if it's something I interact with daily like my daily driving vehicle it might be under Environment, or my sailboat could be called a hobby, but I have big plans to take a big journey with that boat and it feels deeper than a hobby. would that also be an Environment? but then are these things also not tied to the wealth area in some way also, by being an asset to manage.

hmmm, yeah I'm not sure why either. It was just a note I found in the evergreen vault. I find it interesting because Dee doesn't really mention it anywhere. Probably just an artifact from a past version or experiment maybe. I do find the idea appealing if I wanted somewhere to stash ideas and projects about further developing the system itself. But I guess it might be simpler to just toss those to environment and give them a #system tag

Helpful, Thank you!
System (Area)
What purpose does the system (area) serve? and how is it necessarily different from the Environment (Area)?
Text Colors in Line Preview Mode
In the evergreen vault I like the way that the titles of different types of notes show up as different colors when linked. Like how project titles are red, work sessions and meetings are green, others are orange or otherwise. but when I go into line preview mode. which I really never go out of because I'm always editing when I'm working in my vault and I'm doing everything manually right now without Claude. I find that the color differentiation flattens, so all links, weather projects or work sessions, or knowledge notes display as orange. is there a way to change fix that?
