This is beneficial for students, who can go back to the platform where all of their notes and study material is stored, refined, and reviewed. Having access to knowledge in a centralized place whenever we need it can be a game-changer. This means taking some concise, evergreen notes on the content saved in order to easily recall where the key value on each piece of content lies. Doing so would be passive and likely lead to nothing in the future, because one of the key aspects of managing knowledge for future use is to interpret it, keeping in mind that "future you" will remember nothing about it. In this PKM method, as it should probably be the case in any circumstance, capturing and storing knowledge is not enough. One of the most famous methods of knowledge management is the Zettelkasten method, which was originally based on using (physical) slip-boxes to record notes, which were linked contextually via a unique ID, but is a universal framework that can be certainly applied to digital knowledge management. This system worked in small tribes, but with a vastly larger body of knowledge shared among a vastly larger group of people, memories alone would have had a hard time supporting it all, and most of it would have ended up lost." - neuralink and the brain's magical future Up until that point, the collective knowledge tower was stored only in a network of people’s memories and accessed only through Livestream word-of-mouth communication. "Historians think humans first started writing things down about 5 – 6,000 years ago. Starting to write from a completely blank page is less simple than starting to write with a baggage of knowledge to refer to. In the end, sharing information is one of the primary objectives of languages, with the aim of understanding how life works. It generates content by itself if you are capable of really using it properly and at its best. One of the most significant benefits of having a personal knowledge management system (a “second brain") is that it facilitates a lot the process of creating content out of the notes and information you have stored in the database. In our personal lives, we may refer to this as personal knowledge management (PKM). In the corporate world, this is organizational knowledge management (OKM). Tiago Forte calls this building a second brain.
We need to capture and store information somewhere concrete (a database), take notes on it (using our own framing and words - important!), organize it based on the areas/projects of our life that content is valuable for, review it in spaced repetition fashion, and be able to access the knowledge seamlessly at any moment. How can we store all the knowledge and useful information we come across in life, whether through an article we read, a Youtube video we watched, or a podcast episode we listened to? How can we recall that information whenever we need it? The answer to these questions seems quite obvious. As David Allen from Getting Things Done put it, "Your mind is for having ideas, not holding them". Yet, we often cannot recall information at the exact moment we need it the most or we cannot seem to be able to concentrate on a task because the mind is wandering and thinking about the future, or the past. Probably yes, our brain is enough, considering how powerful and convoluted it is.
