Our first Building a Second Brain Book Club is in full swing, and I love seeing the discussions unfold in our Facebook Group.

It's great to see how readers are starting to question their relationship to information and consider what productivity and organization mean to them.

Tomorrow, I'm hosting a Q&A at 12 pm ET (view in your timezone) where you can ask me your burning questions about the book and the Building a Second Brain system live.

Getting More Out of Digital Note-Taking

I was recently interviewed by goop about my book Building a Second Brain. This piece is a great introduction to the concept.

We discussed:

• What's PKM and how we can build a Second Brain
• The differences between taking notes digitally and on paper
• How we can better manage the amount of content we consume
• The benefits of externalizing your thoughts
• Enhancing our creative process and productivity

Inside Ali Abdaal's FULL Second Brain System

We talked with productivity YouTuber, doctor, and BASB alumnus Ali Abdaal about his Second Brain.

It's the Idea Factory he used to grow a team of 20 people and a thriving YouTube channel with over 3M subscribers.

This 16-minute video is a detailed walkthrough of the 4 steps of Ali's Second Brain process, including where his notes go and the specific apps he uses every day.

P.S. Have you read the book already?

If you did, it would mean a lot if you left a review on Amazon.

Amazon reviews are largely how people choose what to buy these days. And by sharing your honest opinion, you'd help someone decide if the book is for them or not.

Thank you!
