The better Learning
LinkedIn Post
On this day 2 years ago, I quit depending on my brain alone and started growing my second brain so my learnings are no longer wasteful 🌱
→ I felt overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information to remember
→ I felt frustrated when I didn’t remember what I learned before
→ It was tough to gain deeper insights on topics
→ I spent time relearning the same things
→ I struggled to provide timely solutions
It became clear that I needed a better system!
By coincidence, David Moeller showed me Obsidian.
Obsidian’s ability to link notes and visualize connections impressed me.
GOT HOOKED!
That’s when I discovered the concept of a “Second Brain” — a personal knowledge management system that:
→ Captures
→ Organizes
→ Distills information with precision
Today, I:
→ Record valuable insights immediately > optimized, frictionless
→ Structure my thoughts; action-based > fast to keep, high actionability
→ Distill key points > tailored for fast retention
→ Create content, solve problems, and make decisions > faster and better
This system transformed my approach to learning and productivity!
Working with your Second Brain 🧠 results in:
Increased creativity > No silos, connected thoughts, serendipity enabled
→ Enhanced productivity >Less time searching and re-learning
More time APPLYING. ACTION!
You can experience that too!
DM me “SMART” if you want to get your fast lane to start.

On this day 2 years ago, I quit relying solely on my brain and started growing my second brain so my learnings are no longer wasteful 🌱
- I felt overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information to remember and apply
- I was frustrated that I did not remember what I learned before
- I spent time again and again with learning the same things
- It was tough to get deeper learnings on topics
- I was not able to provide solutions timely
It became clear that I needed a better system!
By coincidence David Moeller showed my Obsidian. And I was impressed by the tools capability to link notes and visualise that. HOOKED!
That’s when I discovered the concept of a “second brain”. A personal knowledge management system that
- captures
- organizes and
- distills information effectively
Today I:
- Record valuable insights immediately > in an optimised, frictionless way
- Structure my thoughts with an action based system > fast to retain, matching high actionability
- Distill Key Points to focus on the most important takeaways > Tailored to me, for fast retention
-
Create content, solve problems, and make informed decisions > much faster and more informed than ever
- better retention > less wasteful repetitions,* enhanced productivity >less time search, re-learning but more time applying. ACTION!
You can experience that too! DM me SMART if you want to get a fast lane to start.
