Building a Second Brain in Notion (or any app) - Maximize Mental Clarity and Productivity
Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
Have you ever wished you could have a perfect memory? To be able to extract any information at will? While this isn't possible with our current brain, we can get close to something called a Second Brain. Unlike our first brain, this Second Brain has a perfect memory and never loses anything you put inside it. As you can imagine learning to manage the constant flow of information being thrown at us is essential in creating peak creativity, productivity, mental clarity, and ultimately success in life.
What will you learn?
- What a second brain is
- The systems of a second brain (so any note-taking app will work)
- CODE
- PARA
- CODE
- How to set up a second brain from scratch
- What a second brain looks like after years of use

This is a very detailed and in-depth class, so if it feels like a lot is being thrown at you, it is. This is basically a summary of Tiago Forte's book on this subject, just 1/8 the length.
