- A Second Brain is not only useful for your career or creative endeavors, it can help you solve everyday challenges. For example, the one all parents face: Trying to get a newborn to start sleeping through the night.
In this video, I'll show you how I used my CODE Method step by step to take notes from a book and turn them into an action plan that helped us get enough sleep as a family.

This is a good video format Tiago! More actionable examples in action as videos is the perfect BASB content I needed instead of different interpretations or re-explanations. Do more of these!
I second that.
Great to hear!
I also second that!
Yes! This is a perfect distillation of CODE.
He's right. I guess BASB V1 TO THE POINT EXERCISES can be implemented in V2 unit 3

This is a good summary. However, it felt like it missed a lot of context while summarizing the video.
i want to make tiago proud . i will build a second brain and use PARA and CODE for the rest of my life !!
I’m so happy with my second brain. My life got 100x easier than it used to be. Thank you.🙏
SUBSCRIBED!!! Tiago, my friend and coach colleague just recommended PARA to me and I discovered you! I'm in FULL IMPLEMENTATION mode for my life and business!
As a Functional Med Health Strategist, PERSONALIZATION speaks directly to me,; because this is what I do for my clients. We are in the age of uber-mass-info, often times contradicting (and in what order to implement?)... personalized attention and care is what makes it easy, doable and the results predictable and achievable. I see you have a video "The Perspective Era" (still need to check that out), and in my world, it's the PERSONALIZED era.
As a parent, I will take exactly what you did here as a template, and apply it for my parenting our adolescent now, where we are needing to learn new skills.
THANK YOU TIAGO!!!
I really needed this system for several years. I read the book about two months ago and I am now in the process of applying everything I have learned. Thank you very much
Thank you so much, Tiego 🙏🏾 This was exactly what I needed. Also thanks to your sister for the book recommendation. She rocks!
Thanks a lot. I thought of the action plan before but this has reinforced this idea
I love the whole CODE process. Thank you Tiago Forte
Hello, Tiago, Marcos from Brazil. I just finished your book about create a second brain and i really appreciate it. Thanks so much for share your knowledge. I never listen about this ever and now i'm using Obsidian to make my second brain and have so much fun.
I'm more confident now and very happy that i'll not forget what i learn in the future.
Thanks a lot!
I love your calm voice, Tiago. I have been spreading the word about your book, Building a second brain, to my family and friends. Not kidding, it’s definitely one of my favorite books for 2023 as I had started developing the resentment towards books because I almost always forgot the several gems I collected from them after a short time. I wish I learnt the CODE and PARA method and the phenomenal progressive summarization technique several years ago though 😅. Congrats to you and your wife on being able to sleep much better now. Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬❤️
Thank you 🙏
Stellular guide to how to handle any content we come across to apply to our projects! Thank you Tiago!
Great video! Appreciated seeing the real world use of CODE!
Thank you!
I'm glad you figured it out. I read that book and five other sleep books. After four kids, I still never got sleep training down. They just grew into a better schedule by age 2.
This video is key for showing the power of a second brain. I had already given up because I couldn't do it. But this kind of video shows step by step how to implement a second brain.
Amazing video and your baby is ADORABLE!!!
Thank you so much!!
Wonderful! So helpful for when I'm reading self-help books which only seem to help WHILE I'm reading.
Very informative. Thank you.
@tiagoforte Good idea doing a checklist. I’m a veterinarian, and I use them all the time. In human medicine, the adoption of a standrdised checklist reduced surgical errors and complications by 1/3, and perioperative mortality by 40%. Ever read the checklist manifesto by atul gawande?
🎉Absolutely, I resonate with that sentiment. Embracing a new set of habitual tools can seem challenging (okay sometimes feels almost impossible). I highly like these steps, given its ensuring the path down the road. However with the number of 0.3% to take from a book, seemingly it also encourages me to think about seeking advice from an expert within our network as a source whoever we know (maybe pad service) for a quick life-saving action plan. 😊 This way one has the big benefit of full control tho.
stayed till the end and didn't regret it one bit.
Awesome!
I don’t get how to use reqdwise to distill My highlights into a single note. The highlights don’t necessarily have enough context and I would have to go back to my kindle app anyways?
Merci Tiago 🤩
I am actually eager for a blog or video on the newest Evernote debacle. I’ve read you did move away from Evernote now. Of course for you it is part of your work to pay for EN, but for a person the accounts are getting to expensive for what is left of the features. Would love your take on it
Great way to explain a specific and practical example of implementing the thing you're teaching! What app do you use to read ebooks?
Kindle
For the first 3 years of my first son, I didn't ever sleep a complete night. And I read many books and articles about it! Great video
Do the to-do items or the note go into Things?
As many here, I love this format.
I wish I had such an advice while my son was a baby ^^
And your son is adorable Tiago, i'm melting down right now 😊😊😊
How can I apply this method if I like reading a book in its paper form nt on virtual screen
Do u hv a course fr that
Tiago is testing his new business idea: Parenting for new parents...
Don't get me wrong, the content is great. But that kid is cute as hell.
The background music can be improved, gives some irritating feeling.
AI will take care of the "capture" part.
Elon Musk?
Dude you look like Elon Musk's younger brother
