Today I'm talking about a supercharged strategy for note-taking, because as a builder your lifeblood is information. It's heavily inspired by David Perell who developed a method for note-taking called The Information Capture Process. Also big thanks to Tiago Forte and his amazing Progressive Summarization technique.

If you've enjoyed our past content on Getting Things Done, and you're looking ways to improve and/or simplify your organization system, this show is for you! Guest: Alex Bell was the teenager I had mind when I first started this whole School Sucks project. Struggling through school and variety of personal challenges, he was the kind of person I hoped to reach. He discovered School Sucks Podcast in 2009, when the show was about three months old, and he has been a listener since then. He then became a supporter, and then a contributor, and now even an advisor. We first connected in Salem, MA in 2017, and since then we've become very close friends. So today Alex is back in an advisory role, to help me look at some ways to implement Tiago Forte's "Building A Second Brain" organization and productivity system. We'll talk about what we've already done, and how much further I should go. We do an overview of the entire methodolgy, but then we'll focus in on two of the key concepts: PARA (projects, areas, resources, archive) and Progressive Summarization (for creating more actionable and accessible notes). strong>Related Shows: SSP Productivity Month!

En el episodio de esta semana Camilo (@elcamilosoy) y Matias (@matiasfha) conversan sobre Generalistas vs Especialistas.¿Deberías apuntar a saber de todo un poco, o convertirte en un experto en una área específica de tu trabajo, apuntando a un nicho bien definido? Ésta pregunta la exploran desde su propia experiencia poniendo ambas posturas en una balanza.Además, en la sección Qué aprendimos esta semana nos traen:Camilo no quería defraudar, así que siguió con la temática gastronómica en este espacio y nos contó algunos de sus tips para las mejores Costillas BBQ en casa.Matias por su parte nos contó sobre cómo hacer cocadas fáciles y rápidas para sus hijos, y por si fuera poco también nos habló de una metodología que empezó a aplicar recientemente en su vida llamada "Progressive Summarization".Progressive SummarizationBuilding a second brainMúsicaBackground Music By bensound.comOpening and Closing Music:Stepping Out By Cory ClarkPerformed By Crack SkippyLink: https://app.soundstripe.com/songs/9907

Tiago Forte, author, speaker, teacher, and productivity expert, joined me for this episode of the Real World Productivity podcast to cover a wide range of topics where we covered everything from mindset shifts needed for increased productivity to the tools he uses on a daily basis (his “stack”). If you’re serious about increasing your knowledge base, easing your access to valuable information now AND later, and wondering what it takes to make sure you can take baseline productivity higher and higher - this is the episode for you! We had a great time covering these topics as well as his reasons for creating and implementing courses like Building A Second Brain and so much more. I won’t spoil it all for you - I highly recommend listening to the podcast episode and checking out Tiago’s blog afterwards. Listen to this week’s show and learn: What sorts of mindset shift propel you along increasing productivity How “real” is shiny object syndrome and how it affects productivity Where learning outside of your specialty can boost all areas of learning Check out the full post and more here: https://productivity.academy/news/episode-30-building-yourself-better-faster-with-the-right-mindsets-with-tiago-forte/ Mentioned in the episode The Rise Of The Full Stack Freelancer: https://praxis.fortelabs.co/the-rise-of-the-full-stack-freelancer-c14a375445d9/ Progressive Summarization: https://praxis.fortelabs.co/progressive-summarization-a-practical-technique-for-designing-discoverable-notes-3459b257d3eb/ Just In Time Project Management: https://praxis.fortelabs.co/series/just-in-time-project-management/ Building A Second Brain: https://www.buildingasecondbrain.com/ Busy Cal - https://productivity.academy/busycal Evernote - https://productivity.academy/evernote Things - https://productivity.academy/things Super Human - https://productivity.academy/superhumanemail Notion - https://productivity.academy/notion Hours Tracker - https://productivity.academy/hourstracker Loom - https://productivity.academy/loom Zoom - https://productivity.academy/zoom --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/productivityacademy/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/productivityacademy/support

In this conversation Tom Murray and I explore Tom’s model of ‘Wisdom Skills’. In this model Wisdom Skills are made up of both the movement of complexification and development (ascending), and the movement of simplicity and subtraction (descending). We explore the relationship between simplicity and complexity in the development of wisdom, sort out some confusions about the relationship between spirituality and human development, why spiritual teachers ‘do bad things’, why development without deconstruction is problematic, why spirituality is more ‘down and in’ rather than ‘up and out’, how deconstruction releases complexity and opens possibility, why development is dangerous without spiritual clarity, and how this model allows us to talk bout spiritual realization without unnecessary metaphysical claims. To read a draft of Tom's work in progress on the "wisdom skills" material we discussed. send him an email at tommurray.us@gmail.com. The title of the manuscript is "Metamodernism, Complexity, Simplicity, and Spirituality." The other paper we mentioned is "Knowing and Unknowing Reality: A Beginner's and Expert's Developmental Guide to Post-Metaphysical Thinking" (here) Tom's Wisdom Skills Model (image) and Progressive Summarization of his Metaphysics Paper Other links to Toms work include: Tom's home page: www.tommurray.us A list of Tom's papers: www.perspegrity.com The StageLens technology for developmental assessment: www.stagelens.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/emerge/support

Why do you actually do for a living and how you've got there? Neil has a company that helps you build your brand beer, either for events (weddings, parties, conference, etc), venues (chef that wants to pair beers), and already established brands. How Neil bootstrapped his company while trying to have reduce his home brewing costs, and even before having customers. If you ask enough, you can see the Made You Drink beer soon. “You don't know where things are going to go until you actually start working on them”. 8:20 – Nat helps ecommerce and tech startups appear on the front page of Google and increase traffic from Google through SEO and content. Stats of his company. 1428 – Funny fact, Nat and Neil went to the same university in Pittsburg, and went through the same Startup Accelerator, but never met before. Why Twitter is the catalyst for the best friendships, and why it's so hard to monetize it. Paying twice to build and reach your audience on Facebook. Who controls Twitter and Facebook celebrities' accounts. 19:58 – Question #2. Favorite podcasts. Mentioned Jocko Podcast Joe Rogan Experience Sam Harris’ Waking Up Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History Invest Like the Best podcast History on Fire Unchained A16z Kevin Rose Shane Parrish’s The Knowledge Project Rhonda Patrick’s Found my Fitness Bill Simmons Podcast Skip and Shannon: Undisputed Podcast Good Beer Hunting Brewers' Journal Podcast Episodes: Jordan Peterson on Joe Rogan’s, Daniele Bolelli from the Drunken Taoist on Joe Rogan’s, Jordan Peterson's Biblical Series, Al Pacino and Kevin Durant on Bill Simmons’. Recommended Tim Ferriss Episodes: Jamie Foxx, Jocko Willink, The Erotic Playbook of a Top-Earning Sex Worker (NSFW), Naval Ravikant, Peter Thiel, Dom D’Agostino, Kevin Rose, Kelly Starrett, Derek Sivers, Kevin Kelly, Ed Cooke 27:56 – Question #3. Routines to get into flow, specially If you need to write a 2-3000 words blog post. How much coffee Neil needs to get into flow. Neil's realization to keep going until getting a decent piece of work. The playlist to get into the mood. Nat tips: making super easy to start, getting all notifications off, being super clear on what are the next steps, changing context. The template Nat use for writing a massive article, and why he doesn’t starts with the intro. The endure-for-20min-and-then-you-can-quit psychological trick. Being in-interruptible. 28:18 – Question #4. Is doing business an intellectual challenging activity? What if it is not? The overlap of intellectually curious people and entrepreneurs. Early days of a business are very intellectual and exploration, while growth stage is a lot tweaking and optimization. Why intellectual people have the need to compulsively start new companies. Books that coincided with the business stage. How to find motivation to start exploring. 48:23 – Question #5. Advice for college student graduating in 2018? What problems to work on? First thing: think before graduating. Find an internship that has the potential to get you full time, in an area you are interested in. The problem with Ivy League students going to Google, Facebook or big consulting firms. Realize how low risk your life is. Focusing on skills rather than problems. The awareness that you may not know what problems are out there. 55:05 – Question #6. How do you apply the insights from books? Start a podcast and speak with your friends every week :). How Nat takes detailed notes "reading" the book 4 times. Writing as an exercise to build the synopsis with other books' concepts. No need to change the structure of your business. New concepts are useful to see problems from different angles, not overhauling processes. 59:39 – Question #7. How to network online? Tips to connect through the most powerful platforms, Twitter and cold email. 1:02:59 – Question #8. Future of Work: Deep Work vs Shallow Work, solopreneurship, and attention deficit, etc. Trade off between Improved communication and increased interruptibility. The problem with open office workspaces. Trends: remote working, polarization of work between employees and contractors, performance based work environment. Before, power was a function of the organizational structure or buildings, now it's a function of ability or what you do, because it's much easier to show usefulness. 1:13:20 – Single person companies that make over $1 million a year. Personal branding. Having proof of concept on our own site. 1:14:21 – Nat’s proof of concept that you can have 1 person business based on SEO. How Nat arrived to get 8k daily visitors by chance writing sex articles. 1:19:00 – More trends about work: It will be possible for fewer people to do more. The Internet as the effect of compounding of technology. AI is starting to replace White collar jobs. How AI would be able to replace the 90% of the writing work right now. 1:28:04 – Question #9. Is there a trade off between happiness and achievement? Does a gain in power detract from happiness? The Internet gives us the ability to compare us to the whole world, in detriment of the in-group. Opportunity costs of least profitable ventures. The problem with Digital Nomadism. Considering second and third order effects in the happiness-power equation. The intersection between personal achievement and service to the community. What's happiness anyway? Doing sacrifices for achieving joy, as athletes do. 1:43:00 – Sponsors! Get new questions through the email list. Sign up. Find upcoming books, events, and know about new sponsors! A new cool sponsor coming. Hop on Four Sigmatic for their mushroom coffee and other mush wonderful goodness. Suggestion: enjoy an iced mushroom coffee Mocha flavor. Check Kettle & Fire for their delicious grass fed bone broth, one of the only companies that do this. Suggested: the beef for cooking, the chicken for drinking. Perfect Keto for all your ketogenic related needs. A ketogenic diet is high in fat, and your body burns ketones instead of glucose for energy. Some benefits include improved mental functioning, much lower hunger swings, and ancestral body functioning. The supplementary ketones are very useful to pop in and out the diet and speed the process. Definitely try the coffee or the sea salt chocolate. Leave reviews on iTunes.

Tiago Forte is a wealth of knowledge. He draws on his background in design and technology to help knowledge workers apply design thinking to day-to-day productivity challenges. In this episode, Tiago and I discuss the PARA method to organizing your reference material. In this episode we cover:  What Evernote is and why to use it instead of other note-taking apps. Evernote is a database Evernote has been around long enough to have strong, foundational capabilities. PARA File Organization Structure Projects - Any and all those things that need to get done within the next few weeks or months that require more than one action step to complete. Areas - Ongoing aspects of your life that you are committed to meeting performance standards of. Resources - Ongoing interests Archives - Any other category that is no longer active Progressive Summarization 5% of your notes are more valuable than the rest Wander and explore Every time you touch a note, improve it and make it slightly more discoverable for your future self Summarize it - emphasize the most important, relevant information Summarize the summarizations You can scale the amount of attention that you pay- according to how relevant the source is to your projects Quotables: "When you have everything at your fingertips- you can start to see connections between things that would not be apparent if your information was stuck in files. " "Evernote is one of the more personal apps…..It’s your own thinking, your own ideas, your own brainstorms, your musings, your journal entries, your work in progress. All the messiness you don’t necessarily show the world, you keep in an app like this." "Define projects much smaller than you are used to” “Once each little piece has its own value, you can put them together in different structures.” “In one glance, at the 5th or 6th level of summarization, you can get the gist of en entire book in one instance.” "Using a system in every place that you have files eliminates the cognitive burden of switching from one organizing scheme to another."
