Week 1: Capture
Key Lesson: Not everything we capture needs to go into our second brain. Use a buffer space that holds captured content till we can decide if it's actually of value.

Our content consumption is largely shaped by our habits. Instead of trying to reset it all at once, make smaller visible shifts in terms of how we spend our time.
Jumped into a great room just now on @joinClubhouse about 'Starting your second brain' speaker was Tiago from @fortelabs.. here are some key takeaways I observed #productivity #BuildingASecondBrain
Being able to sit down and consume a book (usually 5-10 hours of time investment) or even a long article is a HUGE competitive advantage in our current attention deficient society. Knowing how to capture what you consume will put you even further ahead.
Here's a few tools Tiago recommends.. Kindle highlights for books - Try to read on @AmazonKindle. A digital format will allow you to highlight things you find interesting.. you can then sync these with your note taking app (for me that's @NotionHQ) in two ways...
I've learned a few things in the 296 days since I downloaded @NotionHQ for the 1st time. Today I'm making a few more modifications to my workspaces & will share updates throughout the day explaining these changes - including the HOW & the WHY. #notionforacademics #notion #edtech
1st: Have you heard of @fortelabs PARA system for digital organization? If not, go check out Tiago's posts about it here: fortelabs.co/blog/para/ - but make sure to come back so you don't miss all my updates today! 😀
Before learning about PARA (@fortelabs), I mainly focused on my projects & tasks. Now, after PARA, I focus on my GOALS (Quarterly, Annual, & Long-Term) and how my Projects (and their associated tasks), Areas, & Resources contribute to accomplishing those goals. #edtech
