Tiago Forte (author)Published: 14/06/2022

A stirring, inspirational response to fears of feeling overwhelmed in the digital age, Forte's guide to constructing an alternate brain in which to store and organise ideas and projects makes for essential reading.
Discover the full potential of your ideas and make powerful, meaningful improvements in your work and life by building a second brain.
For the first time in history, we have instantaneous access to the world's knowledge. There has never been a better time to learn, to create and to improve ourselves. Yet, rather than being empowered by this information, we're often overwhelmed, paralysed by believing we'll never know or remember enough. This eye-opening and accessible guide shows how you can easily create your own personal system for knowledge management, otherwise known as a Second Brain.
A trusted and organised digital repository of your most valued ideas, notes and creative work, a Second Brain gives you the confidence to tackle your most important projects and ambitious goals. From identifying good ideas, to organising your thoughts, to retrieving everything swiftly and easily, it puts you back in control of your life and information.
