Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organise Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential by Tiago Forte

A well-organised book with solid concepts. It was easy to understand, and I was delighted at the references to other books (like GTD and The Bullet Journal Method). I'd highly recommend this -- it's definitely changed the way I handle the world.

This has become a comfort read to me. I know it's meant to be an informative book on play therapy, but it's also such a soft and gentle story. It gives me an "everything will be okay" feeling.
