1
If you need to remember it, it's not important.
2
If it's important, you will remember it.
3
For some reason, it's become an obsession to just remember everything you read.
4
There are videos on YouTube with millions of views.
5
It is a very popular and viral topic.
6
And nothing against the people that I'm flashing on the screen.
7
I'm friends with quite a few of them.
8
But it seems like people feel like if they don't retain the knowledge from what they read, they're a failure, or they wasted their time when that's not the point of reading at all.
9
Why would you want to memorize every word of a book in the first place?
10
I know why.
11
You want to sound smart.
12
It's an unconscious status symbol for you.
13
You want to impress others with your articulation and intelligence, but you don't realize that sounding smart comes from understanding,
14
not memorization, and understanding requires a much different approach to learning.
15
It also doesn't help that schools tested you on your ability to memorize.
16
You studied for hours just so you could pencil in the right answer when that's not how life works at all.
17
I get it.
18
You want to acquire knowledge so that you can make better decisions
19
and work yourself into a more advantageous life situation with more money
20
and power so you don't have to worry about your day to day survival.
21
Everyone wants that, but memorizing facts is the least effective way to get there.
22
So that's what we're here to talk about, how to actually learn, not just memorize things so that you can acquire knowledge,
23
and that knowledge can be used to create a better future for yourself.
24
That's why you acquire knowledge in the first place.
25
After we talk about how to actually learn things really fast or master any skill really fast, we're going to talk about why your note -taking system
26
and your bookmarks and the information you love to collect
27
and hoard in your second brain or the sex doll for mental masturbators, we're going to talk about how those are largely useless this.
28
Now, speaking of the second brain, we've actually been building one for quite a long time.
29
It's called Eden.
30
Some of you guys know it, but we just added a library feature, a reader feature, so you can click the link to this video,
31
add it to Eden and read and highlight the transcript so that those highlights are saved.
32
And you can pull in Kindle highlights, X bookmarks, sniped highlights, and have them all in one place.
33
But the difference is that you're not maintaining this and organizing it because we organize it for you.
34
You'll understand why this is important later but I'm just leaving that here in case you want to actually try it.
35
And of course it has the best outlier tool on the market
36
so you can find outliers or high -performing ideas
37
if you're a creator on any platform and then you can schedule
38
and publish to any platform or do that all from the Claude MCP if you use Claude.
39
So I'll leave it at that but if you're a creative
40
or creator and you aren't using Eden yet I don't know what you're doing.
41
I don't know why you would willingly get less results by not using Eden.
42
All right, let's talk about how to actually learn anything fast.
43
And I'm going to start with a previous tweet of mine because it summarizes it quite well.
44
Learning comes from struggle, not memorization.
45
Start the project.
46
No, don't watch 20 tutorials beforehand.
47
Let it expose the gaps in your knowledge.
48
Try to figure it out.
49
Search for the answer when your mind is most likely to remember it.
50
Publish the project, then repeat for life.
51
Most people have no idea how to learn because most people have no idea what the learning process is.
52
The reason that most learning fails is because there's no negative feedback loop.
53
You can think of it like this.
54
If you don't have the goal of getting in shape, and I'm talking a deep intrinsically generated goal, not a superficial goal you're pursuing to fit in like a new year's resolution,
55
then a night of heavy drinking and partying won't register as a problem
56
or negative feedback because it doesn't impact your non -existent goal of performing on your morning run
57
or gym session the next day.
58
You can go to work just fine with a hangover
59
because you don't give a shit about how well you do at your job.
60
That's only one example, but it applies to every single area of your life, to business, to relationships, to health like we just talked about.
61
If I have the goal of hitting a PR in the gym, a bench press PR, or running a marathon, do you think I'm going to go out and drink?
62
Do you think I'm going to go out and do degenerative activities?
63
Maybe I will if I'm not actually serious about the goal, but if I do, then it's going to impact my ability to hit the goal.
64
And if that goal really means a lot to you and you do go out and party and drink anyways, which I'm not completely against, but to illustrate a point, if you do those things,
65
your training is going to suffer and you aren't going to hit your goals as fast as you would or at all.
66
And if you really value that area of your life, health, you're eventually going to realize, man, I need to stop doing this.
67
That's called learning.
68
Learning is a cybernetic process.
69
Cybernetics sounds like something related to cyborgs, but it stems from the Greek word Kubernetes, I believe, meaning steersman or helmsman, the person who steers the ship.
70
The word cybernetics was chosen because the helmsman is the perfect image of a feedback system.
71
The helmsman doesn't just point the ship in a direction once.
72
He constantly reads the current state, like the wind, the waves, or the heading, and then he compares it against the intended course and adjusts.
73
In other words, the process of trial and error and
74
so few people have the direction that allows them to notice errors in their life.
75
Cybernetics illustrates the properties of intelligent systems.
76
There's a reference signal, or the goal, so the system holds a target state.
77
There's the sensor, or perception, so the system reads its current state there's the comparator
78
or the gap between where you are and where you want to be
79
so the system computes the difference between target and current state
80
and the difference is the error signal then there's the actuator
81
or the behavior so the system acts to reduce the error
82
and you can see this all around you cybernetics is more
83
of a frame of how to view reality it's a frame
84
you can put on to course correct in a better direction
85
when you look at a thermostat it turns on the heat
86
when it gets too cold because it notices when it's too cold, the error signal, and then course corrects.
87
And that's one small, that's not a very intelligent system.
88
You can also think of how your pancreas secretes insulin when blood sugar rises.
89
Your body is one system composed of so many different intelligent systems.
90
And that exposes the issue here very well.
91
When most people try to learn something new, they focus on content.
92
They hoard material and try to absorb it with spaced repetition or flashcards or courses and learning the fundamentals.
93
They assume learning is an input process.
94
And now I'm not saying that those things are bad.
95
I'm not saying that space repetition doesn't work or that courses are bad.
96
I love courses.
97
I take them all the time because I like to learn things.
98
But in reality, learning is an output process because output demands input.
99
We're going to talk about in a future video, intellectual obesity and how it's kind of become a crisis or an epidemic, but you can think of information and food as the same thing.
100
Information is food for your mind.
101
If you're eating too much food and you're not exercising, you're not putting out energy, you're not using the food or shuttling it to muscle growth or whatever your goals are,
102
the same thing applies to the mind.
103
Just consuming, consuming, consuming, even if it's self -improvement.
104
That's no better than just consuming brain rot if you're not doing anything with it because it's making you mentally obese.
105
I'm not trying to attack you personally because I was the same way, but a lot of people think that, ooh, I'm scrolling self -improvement content rather than brain rot,
106
so I'm better than the people that are scrolling the brain rot.
107
When you're doing the exact same thing, you're still getting the cheap dopamine hit, and honestly, it could be worse because you're just getting a false sense of progress.
108
So a goal creates the error signal.
109
The error signal creates the filter.
110
The filter creates relevance, so whether it's useful because most people fill their mind with noise and things they will never use.
111
And then the relevance creates retention.
112
I've talked about this many times before, but think of a person who has been deeply conditioned by the default path.
113
Society assigned them the goal of go to school, get a job, retire at 65, and that's all they know.
114
That is the goal that is directing their learning and behavior because they behave in a certain direction, they make an error, and then unconsciously,
115
most of the time, they correct the error to maintain the direction that was set for them by society.
116
So the destiny that they were assigned inevitably will come true even
117
if the person themselves aren't conscious of it or didn't want it in the first place.
118
They just never questioned their conditioning.
119
And now the pernicious thing here, I like the word pernicious, I don't even know if that was the right word to use, but the pernicious thing here is
120
that the person who is conditioned to go down the default path will not notice opportunities like money making opportunities
121
or health opportunities or opportunities to actually improve their life beyond the outcome that was promised to them, right?
122
The outcome of retiring at 65, whatever your image of that looks like, that's your bar.
123
That's the highest you can go with that goal.
124
And so you will not notice these opportunities of say starting a business
125
or becoming a creator or starting a personal brand
126
or even leveraging AI in an intelligent way because your brain is actively filtering it out.
127
It doesn't even have the chance to register and stick
128
and retain because you're not working toward a goal that would demand that as input.
129
These people are not in control of their lives.
130
They are a puppet of someone else's ideals.
131
And this is most people.
132
I'm talking very negatively here, but this is just how it is.
133
In order to fix this or in order to course correct, you need the awareness of the problem because you may
134
or may not have noticed that if this video is actually registering with you, a new goal is starting to form in your head
135
and your behavior and learning are starting to pick up and notice opportunities in that direction.
136
And by simply having awareness that this could be a problem that's going to direct your behavior in a certain way.
137
We'll also talk about anti -marketing in a future video, but this is largely marketing as well.
138
This is a better form of marketing.
139
If you understand deeply how psychology works, not the surface level psychology that goes viral on Instagram, but actual.
140
psychology and how learning and behavior work.
141
Now, this is the part that is important.
142
If you consciously create your own frame by knowing exactly what you don't want out of life
143
and comparing it to an evolving vision of what you do want out of life, you are only then able to sense when you are off track, notice the error, correct the direction you were heading,
144
and learn as a byproduct.
145
Now, I want to repeat that part.
146
You need to know exactly what you don't want out of life
147
and compare it to an evolving vision of what you do want out of life
148
that is it that is the key
149
that is literally success that's it what do you not want
150
out of life what do you hate what are the experiences
151
that you've had look just create an image of a person in your head
152
that you would despise being like and now aim in the other direction what does
153
that person look like what is their potential and now that's imaginary
154
so you have to work towards that
155
but you have to refine it like a sculpture over time by comparing it to what you don't want
156
or where you are now and slowly more and more
157
and more you eventually become the vision that you had
158
so all of
159
that makes sense hopefully what do we actually do step one is to become obsessed with a meaningful goal
160
and the way you become obsessed is to look at your current actions
161
and realize where your life will end up if you don't change
162
and for most people that outcome is not pretty at all sit with
163
that image actually sit with it pause this video think
164
and let it fill you with this potent emotion and redirect
165
that emotional energy toward a better direction for your life moments like these are the moments
166
that my life change and it's very hard to explain some of you have felt it
167
but you just get filled with like I guess you could say this divine energy something you've never felt before
168
and like you get choked up
169
and you just want to attack whatever goal you have like that is one of the greatest feelings in the world.
170
And only then can you actually align the goals you pursue with the aim of your future.
171
Only then does a useful learning process start, the opposite of schooling, where your learning is determined by the direction and goals society sets for you.
172
The other thing is that being extreme toward a goal changes your brain and enhances neuroplasticity.
173
And so in my eyes, a lot of people tell you like, oh, don't quit your job, have a backup plan first, do all of this.
174
And that's great.
175
Like that can work.
176
Absolutely.
177
But personally, I thrive when I'm under pressure.
178
I want to quit my job.
179
I want to feel the weight of the world on my back and I want to carry it.
180
I know that's a very masculine thing.
181
So with those with a very feminine orientation in my audience, you may not resonate with that, but I think you can get where I'm coming from.
182
To me, that is a much better option is to just burn the boats.
183
I like to romanticize my life a little bit.
184
I like to feel like I'm going to war because that's what my brain responds to.
185
And it gives me a huge advantage over other people who don't have that same energy and drive.
186
And it just feels amazing.
187
Now, step two, don't start learning because the life you want lies at the end of a series of meaningful projects.
188
Doesn't really make sense.
189
But a project is simply a structured set of goals and milestones.
190
It's a way of creating something tangible to work toward a goal.
191
It's the way that you achieve goals is by creating a project and completing the project and preferably publishing the project, whatever that means in the context of the project.
192
If it's a tangible product, I mean project, you put it out as a product.
193
If it's a tangible writing, then you publish it to get feedback from the market by posting it on social media.
194
Your mind is to be treated as a project, as is your body, your relationships, or your financial situation, or any other domain or skill in your life.
195
A project creates a frame for your learning by filtering out unimportant noise.
196
Anything that does not directly move the project forward is not worth learning, right now at least, because you won't retain it anyway.
197
In other words, when you want to learn something new, don't start learning.
198
Don't start studying.
199
Don't start watching tutorials, you start the project, you start with an image of what you actually want to do in the world first, and then you take the first step toward the goal.
200
We'll talk about that a bit more.
201
But step number three is to seek specific knowledge.
202
And we'll start with a quote from Naval, because specific knowledge is kind of Naval's thing.
203
I ultimately think that everyone should be figuring out what it is that they uniquely do best, that aligns with who they are fundamentally, and that gives them authenticity, that brings them specific knowledge,
204
that gives them a competitive advantage that makes them irreplaceable.
205
And they should just lean into that.
206
And sometimes you don't know what that is until you do it.
207
As a side note on that quote, you eventually come to realize this, but beginners especially get so stuck in like, what do I do?
208
What do I do?
209
You just do something like you learn what to do by doing something.
210
And for some reason that doesn't register for them because it's a paradox.
211
They don't get it.
212
They're afraid that as an example, posting on social media, oh, their first post is going to flop.
213
It's not going to do well.
214
really?
215
You don't think that the first post is going to, the first post is going to do amazing.
216
You're just going to go viral and get famous all of a sudden.
217
You don't think that it takes years.
218
What are you thinking?
219
What's going through your head?
220
Of course, it's going to suck.
221
Of course, it's going to be terrible.
222
Of course, you're going to be embarrassed.
223
That's the entire fucking point.
224
Oh, it gets me so riled up to just like, I'm not a violent person, but well, I just kind of just want to like punch you in the face.
225
It's a bit intense, but I want to give you a little slap and be like, hey, dude, just post.
226
Schools teach general knowledge or knowledge required to do a job.
227
They do not teach how to navigate your own path.
228
They narrow you into one area of study, which by nature does not prepare you to direct your own work through the path of entrepreneurship
229
or simply doing what you want to do.
230
Self -education is the process of learning what's necessary to achieve self -generated goals.
231
Again, no hoarding general knowledge to feel like you're learning.
232
So as an example, let's say that I wanted to learn After Effects, right?
233
Adobe After Effects, a very complex animation software that when you go into, you're like, I have no idea what to do.
234
It's just a bunch of buttons that mean nothing.
235
And so your first thought is, okay, I should go watch a tutorial on how to use After Effects.
236
But then you do that and then you're no better off from when you started.
237
You look in there and you're like, where is everything again?
238
And then you get stuck in this loop of like, I need to learn this software inside and out before I even create anything, which isn't the case at all.
239
Instead, you need something to actually build.
240
You need something you want to create in animation.
241
You need a vision or an image of it in your head.
242
When people sign up for Eden, there's only
243
so many tutorials we can create before it's up to you
244
to just figure out how to do what you want to do.
245
The software is a tool and you need to use it to actually achieve something, to use it like a wrench, how you would use a tool.
246
You can't use a tool if you have nothing to use it for.
247
And so when people come to me and they're like, well, how do I use this?
248
And sure, we need to create tutorials and teach how to use it.
249
But my first question is always, what are you trying to do?
250
Are you trying to write content?
251
Okay, do you know how to write content?
252
Have you educated yourself?
253
Have you started?
254
And only then can I give you a proper answer
255
because another thing that peeves me so much is that there's software coming out, there's tools coming out, there's videos coming out where they just think like, oh, I'll teach you how to go viral in five seconds,
256
or this app will make you go viral.
257
That doesn't work.
258
That's not how it works because you have to learn the intricacies of attention and psychology.
259
And you have to practice
260
so many times to get feedback from the market on your posts
261
so that pattern recognition over time builds in your head to the point where you are an expert at that thing.
262
It doesn't matter if Claude tells you that a piece of content is going to go viral.
263
Because do you understand how attention and value shifts over time?
264
Content is subjective.
265
Code is more objective.
266
Yes, Claude and AI can write code that works because the end result that you're looking for, that you determine value, the value of the code by,
267
is does this work with content, with writing, with creativity, with art?
268
It's very subjective.
269
The value changes over time according to culture and market sophistication
270
and how much an idea has been ran through to the point where everyone thinks it's just basic or cliche.
271
And so in order for us to build a good tool like Eden, unless we want to go against our morals and just make a ton of money,
272
like I could easily, very easily just give you a system that would probably make you go viral once, but that would be freaking useless to you.
273
It wouldn't do anything.
274
I need to create a tool that's actually good that you're going to use consistently rather than just sign up once, go viral, and then not be able to do anything again and pay a ton of money to do so.
275
So back to the After Effects example.
276
Sorry, that gets me very heated, and I'm essentially going to war with every other social media app because I do not like them.
277
So you need to start the project with the knowledge you have, and if you don't have knowledge,
278
then you find a specific tutorial that is as similar to the project you want to create as it can be.
279
So with After Effects, if I want to create a minimalist line animation, right, like I used to on Instagram, then I would go and try to find a tutorial of someone
280
that creates that specific animation or something slightly similar to it
281
so that I can directly apply what I'm learning in the moment.
282
And the thing is that most of the tutorial will be useless, but you'll be filtering it out and you'll be noticing the things that you can actually go and apply.
283
And then you do that over and over again until you stack enough techniques,
284
not every single tool in the After Effects sidebar or the Photoshop sidebar or the Canva or the Eden sidebar, but you stack enough techniques to get the result that you want,
285
which is specifically your goal.
286
As an easier example, think of learning an instrument like the guitar.
287
Do you immediately go and study music theory?
288
Probably not.
289
You simply choose the song that you want to play, and then you learn the first chord of the song because you try to play it and you're like, I don't.
290
I don't know what to play.
291
You learn the first chord, and then the second, and then the third, and then eventually you pick up other things like, hmm, this doesn't sound right.
292
Okay, I need to tune the guitar in a certain way.
293
I need to add a capo.
294
And then you pick up little hacks until you're able to play one song, and then the next, and then the next.
295
And then at that point, you feel kind of confident that you could maybe try creating your own very simple song.
296
And then years later, you're just going crazy and you can do anything.
297
You're a master.
298
That is how you learn.
299
So we just learned all of that, how to actually learn things fast.
300
And it's literally just do things.
301
For all the people that want a bullet point summary, go and do things.
302
See if that helps you.
303
But now I want to talk about the note -taking systems, the second brains, the obsession with just capturing ideas
304
and writing down notes and hitting the bookmark or save and then never looking at them again.
305
Because there's obviously something valuable there, right?
306
There's something useful.
307
You saved it for a reason, but you haven't actually taken it and applied it to your life.
308
Am I saying that you're going to apply thousands upon thousands of notes to your life?
309
Probably not, but there's a lot of gold that's just sitting there.
310
So how do you actually manage that stuff?
311
Because with technology, that actually enables you to do a lot.
312
People just aren't using it correctly.
313
And I've tried all of the systems before.
314
I started my second brain journey with Rome Research, if any of you guys know it, and it completely changed how I write my newsletters.
315
I built a knowledge base of very potent ideas, and then I was able to pull from those when it was time to write because the research was already there.
316
My note -taking was essentially like preparative research.
317
And a few years ago, I even built Cortex, which wasn't meant to be a second brain software, but that's kind of what it turned into because I was trying to take my writing process, what helped me so much,
318
and put it into a software.
319
And in order to do that, we needed some kind of note -taking system and connections and tags inside of there.
320
But Cortex inevitably failed.
321
And I mean, it didn't really fail, but it very painfully evolved into the version of Eden it is today.
322
That's why I haven't been posting very much.
323
But as you can see with the black background, we are getting back to it because Eden is in a very good state right now.
324
Thank God.
325
So I'm not here to say that second brains are completely useless.
326
I just think that they are misused.
327
They're very powerful, but people just don't know how to use them.
328
Like organizing your entire life inside of Notion is not going to help you very much
329
because you bookmark and you take notes just for them to never be seen again.
330
So you quite literally wasted your time thinking you were learning
331
when you could have actually been learning in the first place and engaging with reality and trial and error.
332
So in the past, people didn't have a popularized second brain that markets very well and catches attention, they had a commonplace book.
333
Marcus Aurelius's book, Meditations, is essentially a private commonplace book with notes to himself and digested philosophy, and it was never meant to be published, but that's kind of what it is.
334
Leonardo da Vinci filled thousands of notebook pages with sketches, observations, questions, and borrowed ideas.
335
Mark Twain, H .P.
336
Lovecraft, Thomas Jefferson, Ronald Reagan, Rick Rubin, and many more each had some variation of this.
337
But there is a major difference between your second brain productivity bro
338
and these successful creatives their collection of ideas was the fuel for their creations their inventions writing
339
and music would not be what they are today
340
and i would go as far as saying you wouldn't even know who those famous people are
341
if they didn't have some variation of a commonplace book that's me saying
342
that a digital commonplace book isn't like an absolute requirement to success
343
but it definitely helps in it
344
so rather than this being a second brain i like to think of it as a second subconscious
345
because when you create something your subconscious spits out relevant ideas
346
that contribute to the quality of the creation
347
but it's still limited in processing power
348
and sometimes it decides to just not help you at all leaving you in a creative rut
349
and so that's what the second brain systems are missing is they don't have a project to apply the ideas to.
350
It doesn't spit out ideas when the time is right.
351
And related to this, a metaphor from Seneca was to gather pollen from many flowers
352
and then digest it into your own honey.
353
That's his way of saying steal like an artist.
354
So you could wonder if the steal like an artist guy stole like an artist from Seneca.
355
This is the antidote to writer's block.
356
You don't have ideas for your writing content or videos because you don't have a repository of ideas to pull from.
357
Every single thing I've said in this video is from other articles, videos, social posts, random ideas, and highlights that I've saved before.
358
So I think you get it, but how do you actually build something like this?
359
How do we create a digital commonplace book leveraging modern technology like AI?
360
Because that's what it's good at.
361
And that's step one, which is to choose the right software or create your own AI system.
362
And I want to have a quote here from Devin Erickson, don't get breathless about how smart.
363
ai is it's dumber than a sack of wet hammers leverage instead its ability to do rapid input
364
and output for simple tasks on large data sets there's a bunch of idiots on instagram
365
and other social media platforms right now saying that
366
if you use ai once then essentially like you are useless
367
everything you've done is useless the whole hank green situation
368
and i would encourage you to go watch my video on how to think five dimensionally
369
because it will break down exactly why these people are idiots.
370
And in another video, we're going to talk about how everything is a religion
371
and we're going to break down ideology because frankly, it's sad to see who I thought were decently nuanced thinkers pick an absolute side in the AI religion,
372
either anti or pro AI, and they can't think for themselves and figure out, okay, yeah, this isn't all bad or all good as all things in life.
373
Come on.
374
So let's talk about how to use it for something good here
375
that would aid in your creativity without taking away from your creativity
376
because most note -taking and second brain software still require manual upkeep.
377
Some of them have an AI chat tacked on
378
which is absolutely useful but they're missing the most useful application of them all
379
which is make it so your ideas don't disappear into the void
380
because your creative work depends on your ability to resurface them at the right time.
381
So you have two options here
382
and our goal is to just be able to drop an idea in
383
and then find it when we need it when we're writing, creating, or just working on a project, whatever your project is.
384
So option one is to use the popular combination like Claude Code
385
and Obsidian to store your knowledge in one place and retrieve ideas with AI.
386
And then there's option two, which is to use kind of like a modern software like MyMind or Eden,
387
which auto tags, categorizes, and embeds your knowledge in meaning space so it can connect seemingly unrelated ideas to birth novel insights.
388
Now there are plenty of tutorials.
389
On number one you can just go on YouTube
390
and you'll see a Claude plus Obsidian video and it's very popular for a reason because it's a very cool thing.
391
Even though I think
392
that many people swapped their obsession for collecting Notion templates to an obsession of collecting Claude skills
393
and everything that they can do in Claude.
394
I need to create it'll be in the everything is a
395
religion video I think where I need to create a bell
396
curve meme of AI usage where the first guy the stupid
397
guy is like oh you just like tell it what to do
398
and then the top is like all the crazy skills
399
and stuff and then the third guy is just tell it what to do
400
but the thing there is
401
that in order to be this guy you need to know what to do
402
which most people don't so since there are a ton of tutorials already
403
and I'm not going to teach you as well as them
404
I'm just going to give you very simple step by step here's what you do
405
if you want to build Claude plus Obsidian.
406
First is just download Obsidian and Claude.
407
Then you can open Claude Code or Claude Cowork
408
and select your Obsidian Vault folder on your computer as the folder you're working in.
409
Because when you download Obsidian, it's a folder on your computer because it stores files locally.
410
So you can work inside of that folder in Claude or Claude Cowork.
411
Now the best way to create prompts or skills or really to do anything with AI is to just ask it, hey, how do I create a skill?
412
How do I create a prompt?
413
A good prompt, right?
414
You don't just ask basic questions.
415
And of course, it may not give you the best answer every time, but that doesn't matter because you're not trying to one -shot things.
416
Working with AI is as close to working with the process of trial
417
and error itself because in order to get a good result with AI, you still have to refine, refine, refine.
418
And if you settle for slop or mediocrity, that's what creates slop or mediocrity.
419
And the anti -AI people just think that's all there is that exists.
420
So what you're going to do now inside of Claude is you're just going to create a save an idea skill.
421
You're going to ask Claude to create a skill that creates a note in an inbox folder with a clear title.
422
And so what that's going to do is it's going to create a skill.
423
So whenever you drop an idea or a link or a post or anything inside of Claude, it's going to create that and then turn it into a note
424
or a document inside of your obsidian folder
425
and it's going to have a clear title now the next thing is to create a process my inbox skill
426
so you ask claude to create a skill
427
that goes through your inbox folder adds tags moves it to the right folder
428
and adds backlinks to other related notes within the vault
429
and then over time as you drop things in these two
430
skills are going to work in tandem to keep your second brain growing
431
and organizing so that when you ask it a question to pull something out
432
or you're working on a newsletter or writing social posts and you say, hey, what other ideas could work with this?
433
Or hey, give me some very unique ideas on this topic.
434
It'll be able to look through your second brain and then pull in certain ideas that you've left in there.
435
And one other useful thing here is to ask Claude to help you define your taxonomy
436
so it knows what tags and categories to use.
437
And that would be something that you look at, you look over, and then you approve and you can iterate on all of this with time.
438
And so it's super simple.
439
Now, all you have to do is drop an idea inside of Claude on your phone on desktop, or you need to drop your writing in there and say, hey, add this to my brain and then you're good to go.
440
And we're talking about this for the sake of creativity, creative projects.
441
You can, of course, use this for other use cases, but this is just like idea capture.
442
And so that works for finding most ideas, but good writing and creative work come from novel connections.
443
So not keyword search or the AI brainstorming synonym so it can try to think that it finds novel connections.
444
So if you don't want to do all of that manually, and frankly, everything shouldn't be done in an AI chat, then you can use a software like MyMind,
445
which allows you to save any link or files, I believe, or just a note or a quick idea to a large searchable library.
446
You don't have to organize anything.
447
You just drop things in.
448
And so Eden has largely the same things and all of everything that I'm talking about is free, by the way.
449
You can sign up and use the things that I'm talking about for free relating to building your second brain.
450
But the difference is that you also write your newsletters
451
or schedule your social posts inside of here
452
and from your library it can show you connections to what you're writing
453
and I can create boards or swipe files where I have YouTube videos
454
or I just drop all of my ideas and sub stack articles
455
and Instagram reels that I save and social posts
456
and all of my writing and notes and sub stack articles
457
and these are all transcribed and the other thing
458
that I like quite a bit is
459
that there is a reader mode where I can highlight and then these things are added to my library.
460
And we're going to talk about how to use the ideas or the highlights or anything else that you save.
461
But the way that My Mind and Eden differ from something like Claude
462
and Obsidian is that everything you add to your library is categorized, tagged, and embedded.
463
So that means you can search and find your ideas without using all of your Claude usage.
464
And if you want to build a second brain or be able to access it with AI, you can just connect Eden to the MCP and not have to do all of the crazy Claude finagling.
465
Now the reason I bring up the auto -tagging
466
and the auto -categorizing that MyMind and Eden do is because those apps can show you what's nearby.
467
It can show you the novel connections or the novel relations.
468
And that's because each item is embedded with 1500 plus numbers that act as GPS coordinates for an idea.
469
They don't need to keyword match in order to find a related idea.
470
So that's exactly what allows you to drop an idea in, forget about it, and then be able to surface it while you're writing or creating.
471
And you don't have to worry about it either
472
because you'll know you'll be able to find the right ideas when you need them.
473
And I'm guessing that you don't want to maintain a vector database, an embedding API, indexing scripts, re -embedding when notes change,
474
keeping the index in sync when files are renamed, and caching so you don't repay for unchanged content.
475
That's why you pay for tool well not even pay it's free for tools
476
and technology and everyone just thinks oh i'm going to build my own app
477
and it's like no you're not you might for the very simple things in your life
478
that you want to build and maintain and that can be local apps
479
but for something like an outlier search for high performing content
480
inside of eden you're not going to spend 10 to 20 000 of your own money to store
481
and maintain the database and continue pulling in and indexing creators content You can scrape a few creators here and there, sure, but that's why you would use a different tool.
482
So you have your system, one of the systems that you're going to use, whichever one.
483
It honestly doesn't really matter.
484
But step two is to capture the ideas that best represent your ideal mind.
485
Because when AI can create anything, curation matters more than ever.
486
You need a curated space for ideas that spark inspiration, the opposite of an endless fire hose of noise we call a social media feed.
487
As a writer, creator, or someone trying to do independent work, meaning you need to build an audience by attracting them to the ideas you put out,
488
people don't follow you for your content anymore.
489
There's Google, AI, and plenty of information that can be found at the click of a button.
490
People follow you for your point of view, your opinion, your interpretation, your personality, your story.
491
And all of those things are downstream of the ideas that compose your worldview, the ideas you use to make sense of the world.
492
As an example, when I get into a conversation about the nature of reality, my mind jumps to ideas about history, integral theory, spiral dynamics, and more,
493
because I've deemed these the most useful lens from which I can view that conversation from.
494
It makes the most sense out of the other ideas I've heard that tend to fall flat.
495
Now, this is a side tangent, but I have made many videos on how you are the niche in content creation, in business, especially modern business as a solopreneur,
496
and I've seen a few pieces of content lately that are like, no, you are not the niche, because they think that you are the niche just means posting about you, you, you, you, you.
497
No, you're documenting, you're placing your mind in public for people to explore.
498
Your mind is not just your personality traits and your story and the things about you.
499
It's the ideas that create this web of interconnections that make how you say the ideas unique.
500
And so your second brain or your second subconscious
501
when used correctly is an externalization of that that you then take
502
and use as fuel for the things that you put in public.
503
It's a layer between you.
504
and your published work.
505
So those are the things that you capture, the things that form your worldview or are powerful enough to eventually form your worldview.
506
You listen to that podcast and you're like, oh wow, that's a really good idea.
507
I like that.
508
That's what you save.
509
So you curate a large set of knowledge
510
that would best represent your ideal mind because that's what your fancy note -taking system was meant to be, right?
511
You just never got around to solidifying those ideas as a part of yourself, usually through the act of thinking,
512
writing, and sharing in public so that you can receive feedback from the market and let the best ideas win.
513
So how do you actually do this?
514
You read more books.
515
You let your curiosity guide you.
516
You reject doom scrolling and embrace curated lists of authors and thinkers who are dedicated to producing good ideas.
517
You make time for research because as a writer or creator, that's 80 % of your job.
518
Notice how I'm not choosing one side with AI.
519
I'm not saying, oh, you touch AI and then you're just brain dead because that's not how it works.
520
Just observe.
521
Don't live in your own head and make up fantasies.
522
But I also didn't say that you shouldn't read or that you should outsource your creativity.
523
I'm saying that you still, even with AI, you need, it's just a tool.
524
Stop like over -exaggerating it in your head.
525
You still need to do the things that lead to a good mind in life.
526
It is as simple as that.
527
And if AI is taking away from that, then stop using AI for that specific use case or change how you use it.
528
Mind -blowing stuff.
529
I know.
530
Now step three is to build your ideal mind through the act of creation because we're learning here, right?
531
We're acquiring the knowledge.
532
We're building a more beautiful mind.
533
So we need to close the loop.
534
We have the system for capturing and retrieving knowledge, but now we need the project to apply it to so that it doesn't go to waste.
535
And we still aren't capturing specific knowledge because we don't have a reason to learn.
536
We aren't giving our mind the frame from which it can effectively signal
537
that ideas are important enough to capture as we discussed.
538
And that's the entire goal we're after.
539
We want to be smarter.
540
We want to retain and remember what we learn.
541
We want to sound articulate for superficial reasons, maybe, but also because the outcome of our lives depend on the decisions
542
that we make and our level of smartness and ability to articulate our own value absolutely contribute positively to that.
543
Now, I can't tell you what to create.
544
It can be an image.
545
It can be a design, a Photoshop project.
546
But if you're interested in writing or content like I do, that's why I talk about it, then I can give you my process
547
that actually recently helped someone else who was struggling to fit all of their ideas into a piece of writing.
548
So for something like writing a Substack article, which is becoming very popular lately, and it's good, people are shifting toward long form because they're tired of brainless short form.
549
And this also works for a YouTube script or an X article or anything really.
550
But step one is to just choose a topic, obviously.
551
But the best topics are the ones that lie at the intersection of performance and excitement.
552
So performance equals topics that have already proven to do well.
553
You find these by saving social posts that have gone viral
554
or using a research tool that allows you to find outlier content and study creators top posts.
555
This is just a constant.
556
This isn't anything new with social media.
557
This is just what you do.
558
Do you think that your favorite artist, and by that I mean musician, became famous by just making little sounds?
559
Or did they have a structure to it?
560
Did they think, how will my audience respond to this?
561
How will the market respond to this?
562
Will it gain popularity?
563
That at least has to come into mind for you.
564
A lot of artists skip the business part, and that's why they become starving artists because they supposedly don't care what the market thinks,
565
but that is their downfall.
566
So yes, you need to curate inspiration and save posts
567
that have done well before so that you know what works in the market
568
and you can take the principles and apply it to your own writing.
569
That isn't sacrificing your voice in any way because it still runs through your taste filter.
570
This video literally has how to remember everything you read in the title
571
because there have been hundreds of videos titled how to remember everything you read that have gone viral in the past.
572
And so is this the same exact video as them?
573
No, it's actually the complete opposite because I say don't do that.
574
So that's the performance side of the topic, but now we need the excitement part.
575
Excitement equals the topics and ideas that you want to explore more out of curiosity.
576
And your job is to pair the topic you want to write about
577
that probably wouldn't do well on social media with a topic
578
that has already proven to do well so
579
that you can write about what you want
580
and increase its potential to actually gain traction after
581
that step two is to brain dump outline and then draft
582
so you don't just start writing the draft writers don't just open one page
583
and then expect all the ideas to linearly fall into place
584
you start with a brain dump you write down all potential ideas
585
that could fit under the topic you're writing look through your notes, ideas, and links and add them inside it too.
586
This is where I use a board in Eden.
587
I look through my library, I search through it, I ask the AI chat for certain ideas in it, and then I add all of those to a specific board
588
so all of my research is there that I can open and reference while I'm writing.
589
And then once you have some ideas, you start to add some structure with an outline.
590
So you take all the ideas in your brain dump and try to fit them into a general storytelling framework, which usually falls within problem, insight, solution.
591
So by that, I mean create a new document or do it on paper if you want, and then organize the ideas by what falls under the problem?
592
What makes sense here?
593
What's the main insight that I'm trying to get across, which is usually the exciting idea that you want to talk about?
594
And then what's the solution or the step by step?
595
What do you actually give people to do about it?
596
And then now when you actually create the draft, you have an empty draft.
597
You also have your brain dump.
598
You have all of your ideas and research and you have your outline.
599
And now all you need to do is synthesize them together and actually turn them into sentences.
600
So now step Step three is to use AI to remove friction, not write for you.
601
Now, I'm going to continue talking about my thoughts around AI writing in future videos.
602
But when I say don't use AI to write for you, what I'm actually saying is don't use AI to articulate your opinions and beliefs,
603
because I wasn't corrected on this.
604
Someone pointed it out to me recently and was like, hey, didn't you use AI to write this?
605
And the answer was yes in my viral Twitter article, the most viewed article on Twitter, there was a section that was literally bullet points.
606
Step were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
607
It was small descriptions of the nine stages of ego development.
608
The nine stages of ego development is from Susan Cook Greuter.
609
It's not my ideas.
610
Any other writer who would describe what the nine stages are is just going to go to Google
611
and search what they are.
612
And so yes, I asked AI for those because they're not my opinion.
613
They're not my belief.
614
I don't want to mess it up.
615
I want it to be as close to Susan Cook Greuter's version of the nine stages of ego development as possible.
616
So yeah, I'm going to copy paste that bullet point in.
617
It doesn't take away from the value of the article.
618
And if you think that, I don't know what to tell you.
619
I have the ideas that I love that I want to focus on
620
because I understand the value of articulating them myself and how it improves my mind and my ability.
621
So the more I can focus on that, the better, I would assume.
622
I don't think it's worth wasting my breath on trying to rewrite what the nine stages of ego development are
623
because that's just like what you do in school for the sake of memorization
624
when the very first sentence of this video is, if you need to remember it, it's not important.
625
If it's important, you'll remember it.
626
I absolutely think that there is value in struggling to articulate your own thoughts
627
and opinions because it creates a gap that you can then go learn and fill.
628
So when I say use AI to remove friction, I'm talking about using it like you would use a course
629
or a mentor or an editor while you are learning the skill
630
because AI is good at scanning through large swaths of information to give you what you need.
631
Does that mean it's not going to hallucinate, that it's not going to be correct? Of course.
632
Sometimes it's not going to be correct.
633
But then what do you do?
634
Do think everyone just accepts that as law
635
or do they question it it's the same thing as going on instagram
636
and seeing a human expert who frankly has no idea what they're talking about giving opinions
637
that people just soak up and that's exactly what happened to the anti -ai people's brains
638
and just to balance it out the pro the all 100 pro ai people are also dumb as rocks
639
so how this relates to actually writing an article or newsletter is that if you don't know how to structure your article, ask for a list of structures that your ideas could fit into,
640
something that a course would give you anyways.
641
If you don't know what to write next, ask for a few directions the article can go and then choose your own or choose none of them.
642
If you don't understand something, research it like any writer would in the past with a
643
less efficient method of scouring through the internet for the right information.
644
Another thing here is that the internet can provide you with false information too.
645
All in all, I just trust that you have a brain.
646
You are ultimately the one who decides what gets published or what gets written.
647
If it doesn't represent the values, ideas, and beliefs you want it to, then refine it until it does or don't post it.
648
And I'll leave it at that because I have a lot more to say and I'll just save it for another video.
649
And if you don't know what to write or what to talk about
650
or what your niche would be or how to actually grow on social media, then consider joining the Creator Bootcamp.
651
It comes free with Eden Pro, so you get both of those in one.
652
Link to all of those in the description.
653
Thank you for watching.
654
Like, subscribe if people still say that.
655
I'll see you in the next one.
656
Bye.

- การเริ่มต้นโครงการ ช่วยให้คุณได้พบกับช่องว่างในความรู้ของตนเอง
- การค้นหาคำตอบ เมื่อคุณต้องการความช่วยเหลือจะทำให้คุณจดจำได้ดีขึ้น
- การเผยแพร่ผลงาน ช่วยให้คุณได้รับฟีดแบ็คและเรียนรู้จากความผิดพลาด
