"Level 7" basically says that rather than focusing on books themselves, we focus on Ideas we derive out of those books, and maintain a "hash" table with ideas as indices (for those of you who know what hash tables in computer science are). It is definitely very powerful, yet, can be time consuming.

@andreabuzzolan9807 2 жыл бұрын

Yea the problem is that usually with steps 5 and 6 you have reached the comprehension and most likely remember it so you don't feel the need for more rivisitation. But sometimes taking time to reorganize stuff every year or some years it's useful and keeps you more sharp on the things you read. I'm thinking of applying this to things in engineering work where you have a process to follow and many formulas and references to add.

I recently found your channel and I just cant stop listening till your video screen goes black. I can resonate so much. I only have one person in my circle who loves discussing these things and we bore everyone else in the group. Just wanted to put down a couple of my thoughts which I am sure you will be able to resonate with 1. The more we get deeper into learning, the simplest things become like axioms in our head. On top of which we base our more complicated info on. This is why when experts explain things to beginners, they skip out on explaining the smaller bits cuz in their head its like an axiom, which people dont need explanation for. 2. How looking at people doing big things can make you think "I could have never thought of that" or "How on earth did he/she know, where to start, what to do", but not realizing the a lot of things that each one of us do, could seem like a big deal to others. So we all have our strengths, you just happen to figure out for the things you are naturally good at or passinate about.

yo this is amazing. i'd been thinking about how to remember everything I read for a long time, and just figured forgetting was inevitable because I couldn't imagine a way to keep track of everything when so much learning comes from so many different areas in life. I had toyed around with writing my takeaways on goodreads but sometimes you just don't want it publicized and there's no way to organize your reviews/thoughts especially when the information you want to include doesn't purely fit the definition of a "review." i'm so excited to start experimenting with this.

I read one chapter/section/topic and then immediately after, I write down everything I remember from it. Sometimes this takes a while. The more you do this, the more your memory seems to expand. I can now remember almost everything from any given book, by recall. I used to passively absorb books, but now I can merely think of a book then take a mental journey through the chapters, recalling all the important points.

So incredibly happy. I got stuck on the writing summaries in a haphazard way - and now I can move forward (I think, hope) YOU. You are amazing.

I love the fact that you touched on something everyone of us have faced since childhood and always wanted to find an answer for. You talked about first mindless reading, then highlighting stuff, after which you stressed on importance of not only highlighting but collecting the highlights and combining it one article. And once done, next is to summarize the book using the highlights into 3 sentences. Don't mind the long comment, I am just trying to summarize your video and write it here so that remember 😁

BRAVO! I agree, Ali. I'm decades older than you, which means I never had the tech tools of today to give mental organization to what I read any kind of a structured format. Thank you for sharing Notion. I look forward to learning more about it.

As a literature graduate, how I long to read fiction without thinking about it too deeply. You’re so lucky! :) I use LibraryThing to manage my books - I can bookmark, organise, tag add notes etc. Been using it for a while and really like it’s functionality (including a barcode scanner function for your phone to just scan the details of the print book in).

@yuqinghe4786 Ай бұрын

Thanks for sharing. This is highly align with 'How to Read A Book' which I'm reading now. I feel like Level 7 is essentially how a literature review forms. Very useful for people doing research or content creators. Although it takes time and effort (sometimes my head hurts when there too many thoughts happening inside), I found it is THE most efficient way to become a knowledgeable person. The whole process is to create links between knowledge from different sources and make them as support for what I gotta say. And when I found the logic behind those pieces, I got myself a pretty good story to tell. Over time, I might not remember where all these come from, but they become knowledge that I can use to improve my life and help others if they have similar issues. Because at the end of the day, knowledge is not something to retain, but to release.

Tbf you don't actually forget everything you read. Usually, if you have a trigger on a certain topic mentioned in the book you'll suddenly remember loads of it.

@thesavantart8480 3 жыл бұрын

Only if the book contains a story and is not in article format. You won't ever remember that the average white rhino weighs 2300kg and is the fourth largest land animal according to the animal section, right after the plant section, on the wikipedia page "Largest organisms".

@hectorwearden202 3 жыл бұрын

@@thesavantart8480 yeah I agree that narrative and story helps us remember things more than abstract things. On the flip side if you have a serious interest in a specific topic your brain gets a lot more efficient. I’m sure a zoologist would remember that a white rhino is 2300kg and fourth biggest organism instantly. If you’re a pilot that information is useless to you so your brain discards it. You’d probably be able to remember plane facts pretty quickly though

@thesavantart8480 3 жыл бұрын

@@hectorwearden202 You don't understand what I mean. A zoologist won't remember that the facts about a white rhino are on the wikipediapage Large organism, in the animal section that is right after the plantsection. All a zoologist will remember are the facts about the rhino but not the rest of the page or how he got that information. Also, a zoologist won't remember those facts instantly. The average working memory sucks and cannot recall information instantly after 1 glance, repetition is required in any way.

I started “How to Take Smart Notes” on your recommendation. And I have to say that I agree: I see where in certain places or careers, it could be super helpful to have a slip box and make the connections. But for me right now, it’s a lot. What I’ve started doing is taking notes in a designated notebook for any book I’ve read, videos I’ve watched, articles, whatever. I need to get away from directly quoting the information, but it’s a way that I can keep up with the content I’m consuming at the same time I’m trying to ensure that I retain the information.
