ℹ️ ABOUT THIS VIDEO
===================
In this video I show you how traditional note-taking can hinder productivity and increase anxiety in a busy work life. By shifting to visual notes, strategic capturing, and utilizing modern PKM tools like Tana and Heptabase, you can transform how you retain and process information. This approach not only simplifies accessing relevant information but also aligns with the way our brains work, enhancing efficiency and productivity.

Looks interesting! We'll check it out! Thanks for sharing 🙌

One brain with two parts still don’t resonates with me. For me it’s the same concept of Second Brain. Because Second Brain follow the steps of CODE. Capture is just the first step. Organize and Distill is the same thing of shallow and deep thinking. And Express is the really purpose of a Second Brain, not the capture thing. I’ve already interview Tiago Forte, and he doesn’t state Second Brain like a storage thing. So I would rethink about this concept of the brain with 2 parts. SSOT is brilliant, this concept changed my life, thank you!

[@paperlessmovement]

Thanks for the great feedback! 💚 We refer to a Second Brain when talking about external storage. Although known from Tiago Forte the origin of this term goes way back. However, you are right with CODE, Tiago is covering more than just capturing information. But this was not the topic when Tom talked about the Second Brain in this video. To further explain this: ICOR® goes way beyond CODE, as the methodology is forcing information always towards action (especially in a business work and team context and not just knowledge work this is crucial). Hence, we believe in the metaphor of one brain to force us to think about our overall workflows in a productivity system end-to-end, running as frictionless as our own thought processes. From information to action. If the digital part is running like our analog part, things run on autopilot (even without technological automations in place). Furthermore, Second Brain implies to have one external storage to retrieve information (like Evernote helped to remember everything). But this is not the ultimate goal with ICOR® as we believe in a multi tool setup with various SSOTs depending on information and action types. If setup correctly, information can be stored and retrieved at the speed of thought, making taking action frictionless and achieving goals consistently. Does this help clarifying it a bit more?

[@eusouoleonardo]

@@paperlessmovement Thanks for explanation. I’m Action oriented too, I call this concept of Hybrid Mind (Digital + Biological). Our mind feeds the digital and the digital expand the biological with more angles to think and act. I use Capacities for Deep Thinking because he has task actions inside the note, so when I create a checkbox in my note… Boom… I can send my notes for what SSOT I want like Notion for mentorship information, Todoist for individual and team tasks. It’s faster and already send the link to come back to my note automatically. So I don’t need to think about brain, I just to select: Action or Reference. Boom! The Action Goes where it needs to be and vice versa. The another step that I don’t need to think about it’s shallow and deep, whatever! Capacities is the 2 things in one, because I capture everything via WhatsApp or e-mail without lose my context like Heptabase or Tana. The information is an object, that means in Capacities I have multiple SSOTs in One Place and I can Connect then when I want or need. One page with deep thinking can became lots of shallow insights and vice versa… Boom again! And the Capacities app has the perfect capture feature: I capture directly the object! Even in whatsapp I can put tags and transform in object directly in the prompt. So I don’t need a brain with 2 parts to enter in action, is already intuitive for me.

Great video. All this talk about Tana on KZbin, but nobody can get their hands on it. LOL It better be something great as it feels like they they are missing out on this explosion of notetaking apps. Seems the only people getting their hands on it are the youtubers who can promote it before it even releases. Been on the waitlist for some time, and while they hold on their release I am moving to other things. Just one person, but I am sure I am not alone.

[@paperlessmovement]

It is actually pretty easy to get your hands on Tana. Just join their Slack channel and ask for an invite. Something we’ve recommended within our membership to our members who were looking for access and it worked each time instantly. This being said, they are entering the public beta phase now and start charging for it.

@@paperlessmovement Thank you for the response. Much appreciated. I will give this a try. Have not used slack yet up to this point, and have wanted to try it out anyway. Now I have an excuse to do so. LOL
