Summary
The three parts of a 'second brain':
- Remember - Saving Ideas & Notes
- Connect - Organize that knowledge
- Create - Sharing the content
1. Remember
- Advantages of a digital note system:
- Synced
- Backed up
- Searchable
- Use a tool that's suited for the task. E.g. Word for Formatting & Printing
- Use a Notes App for storing ideas & knowledge
- E.g. Evernote, OneNote, Notion
- Shortcut from book to notes:
- Mark in Kindle, send via email to Evernote-Custom Address, which will add the content as a Note into the Inbox
- "Liner" Extension: Mark and Select Web Highlights

2. Connect
- Patterns & Associations at different levels
- Using a title that makes it searchable and adds context
- Inbound & Outbound links
- Creativity can be broken down into making connections.
