Gravitas Plus: Welcome to the age of the second brain

Second brains are becoming increasingly popular. People are using second brains to store information they think the human brain can't. Most second brains are free, the premium ones cost as little as $8 a month. But do you really need a second brain? Listen in to Palki Sharma.

[@BuJyo]

This was much needed Palki, for me. Thankyou so much for choosing this topic today. The crux is: We need to strike a balance between our brain and the second brain, we cant document everything and its not even necessary. Instead of being preoccupied with our phone, we just have to pay attention to the things around us. Because brain can remember every important thing that's the beauty, because Clarity > Clutter

[@ToriZealot]

You remember every presentation you have seen and know exactly how to find this after two years? Second brain is not about documenting everything, this use case would be extremely rare.

Palki, Whenever I hear from you, I never feel like I am hearing updates around the world. it feels as if I am reading an interesting article or a thoughtfully written essay or a beautiful discussion or conversation with a well informed person. You deliver not just the news or updates, but back it up with adequate research, supporting data, connected stories, sarcastic humour, personal views, popular quotes etc.. It is like listening to a powerful speech that delivers the final inspirational message seamlessly. Thank you so much for that. Coming to this topic of brain, our brain can store even an entire encyclopedia. Researchers believe that even Einstein used only 2% of his brain. Such is the capacity of our brains. But unfortunately in the name of technological development, we not only forgot it, but also forbade our own body parts to do the designed tasks. We have curated 20 amazing and shocking facts on human brain in our educational channel as well and that was when we understood how least we are all using our brains and how most depending on external elements to do its job. Thank you once again for bringing this to highlight in your own sweet style. :)

[@sundareshanal1849]

Palki, you have touched upon a critical subject. You have expertly packed many insights , your own take crisply. This needs large debates by experts... Deepak Chopra floats ( indirectly) the idea that our brains are not mere storehouses or memory banks like a PC but are made of nueral networks that are pathways to a myriad dimensions of CONSCIOUSNESS that open up to our experience provided we are able to access them. Yoga and the flowering of Chakras are exactly the unfolding of incredible psychic domains ( the universe of music, thought , other subtler energy dimains) which we are shut out of. Our limited Body-Mind identity is "designed " to keep our experiences within a limited range. Hence there is a technical question whether the brain is just a repository of static and frozen memories ? You should raise the question as to how we process our memories ( remembered experiences) based on our current evaluation of the past context. The brain perhaps only appears to hold the memories. In reality it may be a network through which we " access" memories which in turn reside in non-local, non-linear fields which are beyond physicality. You have raised the seminal question of who we are as decision makers, assessors, critics, evaluators etc. ? Are we just this limited personalities with limited identities and responses? Or are we something far deeper ? Thanks for tickling a complex subject in such a topical manner.

I have been watching the show for quiet a while now ... well i mean and i have agreed with almost all if not all of them yet .... but for this one i don't think if i do agree 100% i mean the story about the girl was an example but it was quiet an extreme example of sorts ... I'm sure most of us do remember how we felt about a person the first time and then we met them for the same reason for the 3rd time .... besides that's not the point, according to my view, i feel like even if the capacity of the brain is 2.5 petabyte, it is ofcourse definitely impossible to remember all of what's happening, yes it is important to enjoy the time you are having and not just jotting down whatever you feel at the moment but the fact that this tech is available for us to do so is kind of a blessing, and especially the example she gave us about the office files .... it is definitely a need for all the offices to store the information for which second brain is necessary, besides if we are talking about getting dependent on the technology..... i feel lile its pretty normal for it to happen, i mean look at us even having electricity is a feat of technological advancements and we are dependent upon it, so i don't think if its right to judge a tech of such high capabilities just by some trivial reasons..... Besides that's just my opinion, i do love this show and how the host is dedicated to bring us knowledge on different topics!!

Yes, I like to write poetry and have some short stories I've begun, and my notes are everywhere, but I like re-reading them. Sometimes, they're pretty good, and I think, "did I write that?"

As kids we used to write a journal or diary entries but flipping through the pages later on is totally different from these apps which give a cold impersonal feel. More than the act of noting down our thoughts or a job list it is the constant interaction (and dependence) with the phone really which I think is actually depressing. It has good uses like staying in touch with the family and friends (better than the old landline which didn't travel with us), clicking instant photos and videos, even a job list/shopping list or reminders. We don't really need any more apps.

While I support the idea of not having to rely on a second brain space for the storage of personal details, thoughts, experiences, etc., the narrative and examples quoted were largely confined to personal situations and hardly scratches the surface of academic/professional contexts. I've been toying myself with the idea of setting up my own knowledge management space, where excerpts of information from news articles, technical publications, lectures, books pertaining to various topics along with industry insights, technology trends I come across are retrievably documented & categorised. Beyond text, audio, images, I'd also like to build a virtual knowledge world that'll allow to form multidimensional illustrations and picturizations that pop up in the brain while learning new concepts and ideas. Such a storage would allow revisiting/reinforcing the learning path and the associations/personal notes formed in the process, to ultimately enhance the learning/re-learning experience. In this regard, the human brain could very well benefit from a supplementary storage/retrieval knowledge base.

[@chandrasekarvenkataramani1843]

@Mugen's channel I'm thinking more along the lines of a personalised knowledge space, which has an individual's own interpretations, inferences and learnings stored... Sort of connections, associations, analogies I make during the learning process to better grasp concepts.. For e.g. Google maps might give directions, but everyone remembers/might remember the route/location differently.. for some it is a flower shop, for others the grocery store, etc...

[@chandrasekarvenkataramani1843]

Memory formation, memory retention and memory recall are all essential neurological components of cerebration.

I've been using Evernote for 10 years but never as a personal diary, I'm using that for storing knowledge in a categorised way, that serves me as an index to find memories that happened years back.
