    What will you do with a Second Brain? Personally, it gives me a sense of calm that I have a system for remembering and organizing my information.

    This review comes to me at the perfect time. I need to re-evaluate my organizational systems, and it seems that Tiago's book could help me. Thank you very much Matt, from Argentina 🇦🇷.

    The simplest thing is usually the one that is the hardest to do for me. Note taking is definitely the foundation. I've been trying to implement that practice into my life and its helped tremendously in my productivity journey.

    Matt, thank you for providing excellent guidance! I have to credit you with helping me find resources that my brain needs. You were the main source of inspiration for me to start Bullet Journaling and to download Notion. This Second Brain concept is right on time for this season of development! I appreciate your no-frills, flexible, and service-oriented approach. Keep up the great work!

    I use a combo of Evernote, Notion, and Omnifocus. Evernote is mainly for reference. Notion is for Project Mgt and project support documentation. Omni is for quick capture of tasks. It works well for me. I love the 2nd brain concepts. It seems to sort of build well on the GTD concepts.

    I am interested in the book 'Building a Second Brain's because, while I take copious notes, I haven't taken the time to organize them efficiently. I think Mr. Forte's book would be very helpful for me.

  • @tastefultraveler6745
    @tastefultraveler6745 Před 2 lety

    Thanks for this distillation of Tiago's Second Brain. I heard about it over a year ago, but was a little intimidated about doing a deep dive. But this has definitely helped to change my mind, so I now would love to read the book. I didn't realize that Tiago used Evernote, and I am a long time Evernote user so this is most encouraging... Heading to Twitter to also post, but I think I am already following both of you!

  • @WallyMahar

    Having watched this insightful video on Tiago Forte's 'Building Your Second Brain', I feel a sense of optimism and excitement. As an individual who is on the brink of sharing my unique blend of human and generative AI-inspired creative work, I've been seeking a reliable system to lean on. This method of organizing my digital life and unlocking my creative potential could be the answer I've been looking for. I'm eager to delve deeper into this concept and see how it can enhance my creative process. If there's a copy of the book still available, I'd be thrilled to get my hands on it. 😃
