Use Notion or Google Keep for a Second Brain

The Problem

Ideas, links, and notes are scattered across sticky notes, texts, emails, and random apps.

The Hack

Choose one notes app (Google Keep for simplicity, Notion for power) and put EVERYTHING there: ideas, links, to-dos, meeting notes, recipes, gift ideas.

A 'second brain' externalizes your memory. When everything goes in one searchable place, your actual brain is free to think instead of remember.

Pro Tips

• Google Keep: simple, fast, syncs everywhere — best for quick capture
• Notion: powerful, structured, relational databases — best for organization
• The key: use ONE app for everything — consistency matters
• Capture immediately — if you think 'I'll remember,' you won't
