Tiago Forte

Learn how to save your ideas, organize your learning, and dramatically expand your creative output with digital notetaking. My name is Tiago Forte, and I am your host and the creator of the Building a Second Brain course, where I’ve taught people from around the world how to build their own “Second Brain” – a trusted place outside their head where they can collect their most important ideas and insights, and use them to do their best work and live a better life.
