Building A Second Brain: Simple and Practical Guide

Interested in the "Building a Second Brain" concept but find it too complex? Dive into this video where we simplify Personal Knowledge Management for everyday use. Discover how you can start small by capturing fleeting thoughts and ideas related to your ongoing projects using a digital note-taking tool like OneNote. Witness how curating this information can amplify your productivity, making it easier to recall, reuse, and refine for future projects. Let's eliminate the intimidation and embrace a system that grows with you. Don't forget to comment if you'd like a deep dive into the technical aspects! Thanks for tuning in.

I would be interested in seeing a CODE video.

[@alpha12th]

Thank you. After reading Forte's book and watching your two videos, I have already started implementing them in OneNote. It would be great if you could share more of your real-world examples of projects, areas, resources, and archives in action at OneNote.

[@lherrera21]

Thanks! Please create a CODE video.

[@WriterLady]

I'd love to see a vid diving more into CODE. Thank you for asking our opinions on that.

[@mswelshmi]

I'm interested to learn CODE in building the second brain.

[@marcondescarvalhobelarmino514]

Muito bom o seu resumo sobre o o método desenvolvido pelo Tiago Forte, parabéns pele trabalho! Agora fico curioso em assistir o seu vídeo sobre o método "CODE", especialmente para o Onenote, fica aqui meu incentivo. Abraço!

Hi Andy, another timely and useful video. You are one of the few sources of solid and extensive OneNote practices. I have just started setting up para in my notebooks (albeit with an adventure theme ). My first reaction was how can you know what knowledge you'll need in the future? My mind likes to go everywhere! Which probably means I would benefit from the CODE explanation as well. Thanks for all you do... You are generous and quite helpful!

[@ebonk]

Always great video! Please make video about CODE

[@AndyPark365]

Thanks so much for the super thanks! Yes, given the interest, I will plan on making the video. Thanks again.

[@j2mccoy]

Thanks for the video Andy. I've been an avid OneNote user for years. I wanted to use it for implementing the PARA method, but I don't like the huge differences between OneNote Desktop, versus mobile phone, versus tablet versions. I'm using OneNote desktop on Windows and my mobile versions are on the Android platform. Any tips on how to make OneNote more seamless and familiar between these devices/platforms? The user interfaces and how they interact are very different between each location.

[@AndyPark365]

I have made a video on OneNote for iPhone but not for Android. Let me do some research on making a tutorial around this. Thanks for watching.

[@WarmProp]

There's a thousand videos in PARA, so CODE surely doesn't get discussed enough.

[@curious-homebody]

I feel like I have been developing my second brain since starting my role in corporate america 13 months ago, but I just did not know what was actually happening. I suspect this is where I used to put all my useless video game know-how/strategies at previously. I don't play much video games anymore since my job gives me Dopamines.

CODE

[@AndyPark365]

Already made that video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYuZqYGbiZqto7M. Thanks!

[@chunmanprotoss9312]

Andy, your video is practical and simple. Could you have any intrepretation of CODE?

[@bowtie87ss]

Hello Andy, I just found your channel. A great video. This will be very helpful at home and work. Aloha.

[@JeffPennington-z6r]

Andy, I am a OneNote user and you insight is the first I gravitate to. There are many opinions on the product to use Notion, Noteful, Good Notes, Apple Notes, etc. I too do not want to get tied up in figuring out how to the use the tool. I prefer One Note since it can be used with Windows and iOS devices. I have watched your PARA video and would appreciate your insight on how CODE functions.

[@lowbob18]

Great summary! Would love to see a video on CODE. Thanks!

[@daviddonnelly8406]

Yes - would very much like to see a video on CODE.

[@ebonk]

Your combination on second brain and onenote make my life easier to maintain my work load

[@borisrachev6682]

Much intesested of CODE video!

[@kianm2994]

💯 would love to see a PARA and CODE video (PARA first). There are not enough videos of BASB setups in OneNote, which I have been using for a year now.

[@AndyPark365]

Hi - I've already made a video on PARA. Here's the link to the video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5iQlH9sjLinrpI

[@kianm2994]

"Collect information and ideas and thoughts only for your active projects." That means that we become more selective in what we consume. It's like a filter.

[@AndyPark365]

Exactly. There is a quote by an American Technology writer - Clay Shirky. “It’s not information overload. It’s filter failure.” 😀

[@mphchanut]

I would love to see a CODE video.

[@AndyPark365]

Already made it. You can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYuZqYGbiZqto7Msi=af9BLcWuuhSvRjvi

[@jorgeoteo]

Would be nice to see a CODE video!

[@michaelschranz6532]

CODE 🙏😊

[@AndyPark365]

Yep. Video already made. You can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYuZqYGbiZqto7M Thanks.
