Video Description
Hi Friends, my name is Callum aka wanderloots. In this video, I show you how I actually use Obsidian & NotebookLM to explore a topic: How To Systemize Flow States using Intuition & Neuroscience π I use the Feynman's Favourite Problem Framework to research these topics & develop my own mental model, a framework for finding finding flow on demand. Flow states are when you find effortless attention & optimal experience (peak performance). Flow states help you find focus in what you care most about, feeling more fulfilled with life & more productive. To better understand how to trigger flow states, I researched the concepts of intuition & neuroscience (including the default mode network) to systemize finding flow. I use Obsidian, my note-taking software, to build out this model & track my research. I also show you how I use one of my favourite AI tools (NotebookLM) to discover relevant sources & build out mind maps to discover common threads & reduce information overload. The first video in this series goes more in depth on the Feynman Technique: https://youtu.be/YiM2ZUGxowQ The second video in this series walks through Feynman's Favorite Problems and how you can build an intuition filter for your note-taking system to find your own favourite problems: https://youtu.be/Mtw9zmK6RK8 I hope you enjoy! β¨ Note: the map of content template created in this video is available for my YouTube members.
