I really don't, but I assume it's true. Someone else once said that you can't find happiness outside [of yourself]. So being content is about finding inner peace?
I can't pretend to know your story. My story is not startup related. But "inner peace" frustrates me.
For my turmoils, it was about acceptance. Saying "Yeah... that happened" with the idea the past doesn't define me.
To make the past separate do something, anything, that "past you" wouldn't guess, even just once. Maybe put cupcake-sprinkles on your morning cappuccino or on a PB&J sandwich. Change your desktop wallpaper to unicorns and rainbows. Sing along to a death metal song before breakfast.

This does two things:
1. Bookends an era. The old era is now BSC.(Before SprinkledCoffee)
2. Means you can do things tomorrow that even you can't predict today.
Congrats. You are now living in a new era where even you can't foresee the possibilities.
No inner peace though. Your past will always be your past. You will continue to have feelings about it though it does get easier over time. Maybe see a therapist if you can.
I like Desiderata, one unequivocal phrase of which is:
"You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here."
not really, vscode with preview on works in a similar way, but I don't really need to use it like that, mostly I just navigate the directories and find the file with the notes I'm interested in reading. If I do forget where something is, simple search finds it and I don't even consume it as rendered markdown, usually just as plain text. I find it really useful, I have a ton of notes on all kinds of things that I keep referring to.
Most of these statements are just patently false, right? It's the top comment on HN, but I'm pretty I've successfully used all of the features mentioned in the just month with no issue at all. I don't understand how these are getting rated so highly?
Because it happens to people? It happens to me, that's why I have a bookmark folder with a bunch of search engines. Do you think that I'll put that much effort on searching in several engines if it wasn't because it happend to me time and time again.
Also moved everything to Obsidian. The free plugins from developer contributors are fantastic. Sync to mobile is free with some know-how, otherwise the paid option seems fairly priced.
I actually started with Obsidian. It's a beautiful editor and was pretty easy to pick up. I must've built my first batch of notes in Obsidian.
I picked up Dendron due to 2 things:
1. Hierarchies leading to better note structure - I can have my notes be folders (kind of like notion)
2. VSCode - working with something extensible and familiar to me.
