How To Master Your ‘Second Brain’ — How to Organize Digital Notes Like a Pro
00:00:00.000 | what most people don't take the time to do is to just orient their second brain into things that
00:00:06.480 | they know they're going to need or care about later. In order for me to do that effectively,
00:00:10.960 | I have to know that that is the kind of information of a specific format that I'm looking for,
00:00:16.720 | and so I have a note for that, and I have my brain kind of passively as I'm looking through things,
00:00:21.760 | not just like willy-nilly being like, "this is interesting, let me throw it in here,
00:00:25.040 | this is interesting, let me bookmark it." It's specifically looking for that kind of information
00:00:30.240 | of that format. So what that means is then when I'm operating around the web, I'm filtering myself,
00:00:36.960 | which means that my "second brain," which again, Evernote notion, you can use whatever tool you
00:00:42.640 | want, is organized in a way that I don't have to go back and clean it up and kind of wonder like,
00:00:47.760 | "what am I going to do with all this information?" I have almost like a project, a mandate of what
00:00:53.760 | what I'm looking for and how it's going to be used later.
