Monday Musings (7/1/19)

Hey everybody, 

Two years ago, I enrolled in an online course called Building a Second Brain. Before taking the course, I was overwhelmed by information overload. I felt like there were too many books, emails, podcasts, articles, and newsletters to sort through. I felt like I was swimming an infinite pool of information. No matter how hard I worked, I couldn’t keep up. 

At first, I managed to tread water. But over time, I lost my stamina. The world was throwing too much information at me, and I didn’t have a system to manage any of it. I felt stressed, anxious, and frustrated.

Second Brain felt like a life jacket. For the first time, I didn’t have to worry about keeping my head above the surface. The violent waters of information overload stopped being an issue. My relationship to information transformed. Like a surfer, I welcomed the rush of the waves. Armed with a new system for managing information, I felt like a surfer barreling through the tidal wave of information. The wilder the waters, the better the ride. 

Taking Second Brain is the single best decision I’ve made in my career. It’s become my operating system for everything I do. When my friends watch me use my Second Brain, they think I have a superpower. 

They’re right. 

Fast-forward two years and I’ll be teaching the next version of Second Brain, which begins on Wednesday, July 3. My fingerprints are all over this course. We’ve spent the past few months stripping the course down to its essence. We’ve designed a new and improved version for people like you who want to learn faster and achieve more, without all the stress and anxiety of time-consuming information overload.

It’s time to build a system that gives you instant access to your knowledge 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, no matter where you are.

I’ve interviewed countless writers, entrepreneurs, and creatives. When I show my Second Brain system to them, their jaws hit the floor. Not a single one has an information management system on par with the one you’ll create for yourself in this online course. 

Second Brain is the greatest gift I can give you. There is nothing I recommend more.

The course begins on Wednesday , July 3. The live sessions are recommended, but not essential. If you can’t attend the live lectures, you can watch a recorded version online.
