A System for Reading: how I read purposefully and remember what I read

[@norazhang9164]

Love the content you shared! Pretty organized system for a lifetime reader. One small suggestion, could you film the monitor screen when introducing apps? I’m watching on my phone and it’s really a pity that I cannot see clearly what’s going on through a small phone screen. Expecting more videos!

[@moorescience]

Landed here via Reddit. Your teaching lens resonates with me. Well done! Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing. .Love the practical list and application of your notes/knowledge base. Bravo!

[@_adamsmith]

thank you! really glad to hear that the teaching lens is appreciated !

[@CariadEccleston]

This is fantastic, thank you! Adding implementation ideas -- the changes you're going to try -- along with the notes in your knowledge base is solid advice. That's the most important change I'm going to try for myself.

[@HaddyJeng]

Yeah, I really enjoyed this video. I believe the implementation step is a real game changer in allowing us to understand how to apply the knowledge we have just read into practice. Thanks for that tip, I will be 'implementing' that from now on.

It felt like I was watching a KZbin Channel with at least 100k+ subs. Congrats on making such a high quality video and keep it up bro!

[@Taskade]

This is amazing, thanks for sharing! The words and actions of a person reveal who they really are. This is true to the point that we can tell what kind of person someone wants be by simply looking at their words.

[@ethanjaimes6252]

Nice video and content. Next time perhaps show whats on your monitor screen full size for you viewers as its easier for them to read and see what you referring too as opposed to “over your shoulder”. 👍🏻

[@CyberRicky]

Hi Adam. Thanks for this content. Being old school still using notbooks & pads, this is going to be a game changer for me. Keep the Vids coming!!

[@Flyingmamacita]

Great information on here. Thank you so much for sharing your system! You have a really beautiful way of explaining things that make it both simple yet informative.

[@prolificwriterslife]

This is a terrific tutorial for both readers and writers. Thank you for all the useful tips! Now it's time to implement.

[@jamespier7801]

your thumbnail has a typo in it

[@rafaelnicolas1416]

clicked just for the Notion part but stayed for the whole video, good job man !

[@_adamsmith]

thank you! that means a lot

[@Enhancedlies]

mate, you are just what i have been trawling through YT for!

[@LePetiteBrun]

loved loved loved this video so much, Im in my last year of University and yet I still do not have a good method to organice myself when it comes to different media so thsi has been an absolute inspiration to get started. Ty!

[@angelcontrerasmx]

Thank you for sharing your system. Interesting ideas to consider for my own ✌️

[@arghatak]

Adam! this is such a treasure trove of information!!! Thank you

[@ordercentral5930]

thank you so much for taking the time to make this, super helpful and really effectively demonstrated, thank you!!

[@stepoid]

Thank you so much for sharing your approach. I liked it so much that I’m currently adapting it for me as well.

[@snailwhisperer2010]

Great video! I have to read a lot for school and these tips are super useful. Thanks so much for sharing

[@giovannigraziani80]

Great video, interesting food for thought. It's always useful to see other people's workflow. The important thing is to remember that each of us is different and that everyone must find their own workflow. For example, in my case, I would remove a couple of steps. Too many different apps and systems, I would never be able to maintain it all. Anyway, thanks for sharing your experience.

[@rhysbain1613]

Great stuff Adam! You can certainly tell you’re passionate about what you do!

[@pixiholly]

That's fascinating. I'm a fan of the bullet journal method, but even with the indexing there, this sounds as though it could be more efficient. I'm up for anything that improves CPD. Btw, you asked elsewhere about what we might like to see on your channel. I would be really interested in your advice for people considering becoming a teacher.

[@dnsstephan]

I just found you and your videos are so high quality 😊 you should upload videos more often!!! Thanks for this info 😁

[@fagiolo_mago]

very well thought out system AJ. I have some of these pieces already in my workflow, I will try piecing it all together as you have done!

[@frankturley5202]

Great video, I wish to see how you use notion in the future

[@kassandercailliau8674]

Awesome video, exactly what I’ve been looking for!! Keep up the good content!! Also you have a typo in your video thumbnail, something I thought you should know :))

[@Acrnl]

Pretty cool video. I am mainly interested in the knowledge base in Notion and the implementation component but it was good to watch it all :).

[@_adamsmith]

thanks! I will make a video on using Notion as a knowledge base when I have my own set-up working more fully

[@mukondeleliratshilavhi5634]

It's been a year now .. thank you for system I like that it has a trackable out put in the end . So I wanted to ask if you we're to up date this video what would you leave out from the apps and tech you use in your system.

[@joaquimpinheiro6915]

I just discovered your channel. Thanks for such an informative video 😊😊

[@celinabondoc2903]

Thanks for sharing. I find theCPD bit useful, esp trying to implement. Hope you upload more related content

[@laStar972chuck]

A very nice video and system ! Congrats !!

[@MrRobot24]

Great video! Lots of useful information. I am trying to figure out how to create a secondary brain and this workflow seems ideal and frictionless. My biggest hurdle is “physical notes” that I would like synced with notion.

[@kskgautam]

You're a wonderful and bright guy sir. Love the video. Subscribed!

[@Charlieng5]

I find it so informative. Keep it up, mate!

[@stewartcotton9954]

hey... good looking out.. this is great info

[@_nikoru]

Thanks

[@Dedabile]

Great video, Adam

[@TheLexay]

Love this video! Thank you 😊

[@paulaalmendramunoz7002]

Love this, thanks for sharing! I would love to know the books you read 💕

[@sebastianpozo8305]

Amazing. Keep doing it. Do you have a video about the connection between notion and readwise?

[@jpissini]

Nice video, thanks for sharing!

[@theycallmehollywood]

Great content Adam!! Really interesting. Maybe one point for improvement (if You have the time for such things) may be a screen recording, while You explain things on Your computer. - KEEP Going anyway!! 👍👍

[@connermoon6896]

Loved this video! I've been using notion and readwise for several months now but I really want to organize my book quotes further. I love that they are organized by book but I'd like to tag certain quotes to further organize the database. Any thoughts on how to do this?

[@liz2924]

Is there a way to do this with academic journal articles? They require a sign in through my university library or I can download them but I can’t seem to see them in Kindle.

[@bremcdonald]

Great video! Subbed :)

[@_adamsmith]

thank you! much appreciated

[@ignaciocolombetti8180]

Amazing video!

[@guillaume6373]

nice video :))

[@vishalyagnik226]

what are the free alternative to readwise

[@JimManicad]

Anyone here has an idea how can I find the notes / highlights I saved on kindle integrated from instapaper? Since my kindle is synced with my Readwise, notion, and instpapaer account. Does it show anywhere automatically in any of those accounts?

[@user-ub9ff5os6q]

Nice adam❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ love from bangladesh

[@shivayshakti6575]

👍

[@krystalannawilliams2653]

Is this kindle? to the side. Why does it have a side? What kindle do you have? Are you going use a better kindle (korean)

[@platepixels4520]

Great video! Hoe did you get the handwritten notes from your physical notebook into GoodNotes? Did you scan them or just take a photo?

[@_adamsmith]

Used my phone camera to scan them. There’s an inbuilt feature to do that on GoodNotes.

[@volkerhansen2815]

For me Obsidian is much more powerful than Notion. Plus all my Notes are offline on my computer.

[@chiyungwong3774]

Great video. One year on, is there an update to your system, will there be an update to your Notion knowledge base?

[@_adamsmith]

It has actually changed a fair bit and the knowledge base is looking good so I will hopefully get round to an update soon 🙏

[@HarryOrenstein]

Why both a Kindle and an iPad? iPad has all the possibilities to read Google Books, etc., etc., etc., and Kindle

[@captainspike7662]

Thank you so much for the video. I'd like to share something that has had a great influence on my reading and thinking process. That tool is called Obsidian. I highly recommend you checking it out.

[@dezbruce4818]

Dude. Good video. Spelling mistake in your title slide.

[@Chanson_Dada]

Opening title needs a typo correction.> Sytem.

[@deadl0ad780]

Use a free screen recorder bro

[@xm6250]

Stop being that cute..!

[@woroud3823]

Hi Adam, can I have your email please for potential work together
