All the information inside of a second brain has passed through you before. So it's much less apt to enter into a classic YouTube rabbit hole if you are in your second brain. "I'd like to bring that to my own student experience at Cornell because I notice a concerningly large amount of students around me don't get joy from their learning"

Nick Milo is a YouTuber, blogger, and creator of the Linking Your Thinking Workshop, where he guides people of all different backgrounds to learn how to bring curiosity and joy back into notetaking.

We talk about why Nick transitioned from Evernote to Obsidian, the power of link-based thought and map-making, how students can become more engaged with their learning, and how we can use the concepts of flow and gamification to make real life more enjoyable.
