Handling Text And Video Notes

Handling Text And Video Notes

Text content includes Kindle, Medium, Web Articles, etc.

Video content includes youtube, online conferences, etc.

Taking notes while watching videos online is very important. Think it this way: You know there is an awesome video about a topic that you watched in past. You want to review it for some work but don’t have enough time. If you had created notes while watching the video it would have been a matter of a few seconds. Because watching videos takes 10+ minutes but browsing through content with images and notes takes less than 2–3 minutes.

Information overload is real. There are all kinds of information Good, Bad, Right, Wrong, etc. The content we consume directly impacts our personality as well as our knowledge. So, it is important to follow people who inspire you to grow and become better. And in order to not forget the good content you are consuming, you must save it somewhere and review it regularly.
