🚀 Cohort 5 starts on August 19. 📔 We will be summarizing Finite and Infinite Games by James P. Carse into a book-on-a-page
In this video, I provide a summary of Tiago Forte's new book, Building a Second Brain. In parts 2 and 3 I will provide a behind-the-scenes view of how I created this book on a page summary.
A high-resolution PNG version and the standalone excalidraw file of this BoaP are available here: https://ko-fi.com/s/beb42e224d
If you find my videos helpful, please say thanks by buying me a coffee: https://ko-fi.com/zsolt
If you want to connect, you can reach me (@zsviczian) in the Obsidian Members Group (OMG) on Discord or on Twitter.
This book on a page was created with the Obsidian-Excalidraw plugin.
