As we age and gain new experiences, our brain changes and it becomes evident that we can’t hold every piece of information and knowledge that we encounter at all times. More often, we only retain information that is immediately useful or relevant to our present needs. But, we also want to remember crucial information that we’ve read today at a time in the future when it is needed, right?
In this episode, CTPO, speaker, author, MIT instructor Mark Herschberg and I discuss this topic in more detail. As an author faced with the challenge of readers’ recall and retention, Mark created an app called Brain Bump designed to help users remember information, data, and materials from books, blogs, podcasts, classes, talks, and other resources whenever they are needed. If you are in the business of investing, or in any business for that matter, you’ll need access to as much information as you can to run your business efficiently and to have meaningful engagement with clients and investors. Listen until the end and you’ll learn invaluable tips to protect yourself and your business from cyberattacks.
Key Points from This Episode:
Tweetables:
“We live in the most abundant time in human history with regard to sharing information, and sharing perspectives and thoughts.” - Tyler Chesser
“Even when a reader reads a book, a business book, a self-help book, something with advice, say, wow, there's great advice here. And then you forget it two weeks later. You forget 90%-95% of it. That is a problem. And so there's a problem for the author and a problem for the reader.” - Mark Herschberg
“Media is traditionally linear. We listen to this episode, front to back, first to last. We read a book from first to last. We watch a TV show from start to finish. Exceptions are encyclopedias or dictionaries, you generally don't read that first page to last, you jump in, you get what you need, and you leave. More of our media will shift in this direction.” - Mark Herschberg
“By chopping up the content from an episode, from a book and putting it in this nonlinear order, we make it more relevant. It's like a "choose your own adventure" that you grab what is right for you.” - Mark Herschberg
“The teacher is who learns the most.” - Tyler Chesser
“For any company or individual, it's not a matter of “if” but “when” you run into a cybersecurity issue.” - Mark Herschberg
“You will be attacked, you will be hacked. It's about being prepared and having your defenses there.” - Mark Herschberg
