“One of my favorite books of the year. It completely reshaped how I think about information and how and why I take notes.” —Daniel Pink, bestselling author of Drive
A revolutionary approach to enhancing productivity, creating flow, and vastly increasing your ability to capture, remember, and benefit from the unprecedented amount of information all around us.
For the first time in history, we have instantaneous access to the world’s knowledge. There has never been a better time to learn, to contribute, and to improve ourselves. Yet, rather than feeling empowered, we are often left feeling overwhelmed by this constant influx of information. The very knowledge that was supposed to set us free has instead led to the paralyzing stress of believing we’ll never know or remember enough.
Now, this eye-opening and accessible guide shows how you can easily create your own personal system for knowledge management, otherwise known as a Second Brain. As a trusted and organized digital repository of your most valued ideas, notes, and creative work synced across all your devices and platforms, a Second Brain gives you the confidence to tackle your most important projects and ambitious goals.
Discover the full potential of your ideas and translate what you know into more powerful, more meaningful improvements in your work and life by Building a Second Brain.

Another book that is so good I read it twice. The first time I read this, I forgot to log it, but this time I have to share the recommendation. Tiago Forte’s system for information management and organization is crucial in a world of communication overload. This book and the systems contained within act as an operating manual for life and help you to develop a bias to action by just simply taking note.
The first principle of the book is rooted in the rule I have seen at the most successful companies I have worked at: WRITE IT DOWN. Then, search for it. There is a real sense of presence that is created by note-taking. The act gives room for the development of the creative parts of the brain and self by collecting the world as we experience it. We can then later coalesce these observations into a synthesized output that captures what makes us human and conveys that into others’ experiences.
Forte establishes early and repeats the mantra that note-taking is timeless. He builds upon that assertion by demonstrating how note-taking apps take an asynchronous and passive practice and transform it into something that can be turned into continually active and available as a real digital assistant. Your own personal life wiki of sorts.
Forte has also created a whole ecosystem of tools and resources to help you take better notes and organize information more effectively. I use these systems for my book reviews and book clubs. This book in particular sits between self-help, productivity, and philosophy. I highly recommend it; especially in an age where everything is stealing your attention.
GTD on a whole new level
It’s not just snot getting things done. This is a strategy to reuse and keep information at your disposal at any time anywhere at will. This is Google for your thoughts. Powerful stuff
So…making lists is good. 😐
I have been hearing so much about this book. Was excited to get it. Just finished, and TBH it sounds like the author took the art of keeping notes, into a very complex art form.
This book wasn’t a waste of time. But…I don’t think I’ll return to it again in the future.
