I need a process. I need a system. And what CODE does is it gives me steps. C = Capture more information, O = Organize the information, D = Distill the information, E = Express information.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>How to collect the right amount of information:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Tiago:<\/strong> For note-taking, when you collect everything, you might as well collect nothing. When you try to save all the knowledge, you end up not having any knowledge that&#8217;s accessible. If you save everything you end up just creating a huge amount of work for your future self to organize, distill and review and boil down that to its essence.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The importance of completing projects:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Tiago:<\/strong> What makes the biggest difference to people&#8217;s lives, their careers and their businesses is &#8220;completed creative projects.&#8221; To me, that is the unit of progress that is most relevant in today&#8217;s modern world.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Building-Second-Brain-Organize-Potential\/dp\/1982167386\/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3670P19BDNELX&amp;keywords=building+a+second+brain&amp;qid=1655135364&amp;sprefix=building+a+second+brain%2Caps%2C132&amp;sr=8-1\">Building a Second Brain<\/a> is a well-written useful book, and I highly recommend people check it out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How often have you read a book, taken a course or listened to a podcast and . . . promptly forgotten everything the minute you switch your attention to something else?
