A revolutionary approach to enhancing productivity, creating flow, and vastly increasing your ability to capture, remember, and benefit from the unprecedented amount of information all around us. 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 contribute, and to improve ourselves. Yet, rather than feeling empowered, we are often left feeling overwhelmed by this constant influx of information. The very knowledge that was supposed to set us free has instead led to the paralyzing stress of believing we’ll never know or remember enough. Now, 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. As a trusted and organized digital repository of your most valued ideas, notes, and creative work synced across all your devices and platforms, a Second Brain gives you the confidence to tackle your most important projects and ambitious goals. Discover the full potential of your ideas and translate what you know into more powerful, more meaningful improvements in your work and life by Building a Second Brain.

3.5 stars.
I was pretty excited to find out that Tiago wrote a book about his Second Brain PKM system. But alas i have to dock a star because he does ramble a bit.
Every chapter starts out with a story or anecdote on why having a second brain is so useful. Then he talks about why its important to have it. When this is repeated almost every chapter it becomes rather tedious and you are crying inside, “I get it! Can you just teach me how to do this already ??”
I think I need to apply the knowledge received before properly reviewing this book.
But, in general, it was an easy, well-written and structured method suggested.
Building a Second Brain is simple yet unexpected.
With only small changes made to your life can be a life changing experience. The underlying principle of Tiago Forte's Second Brain, GTD and Zettelkasten method are mostly the same. If you want to master the information overload, this is definitely the book you must read!
