After:
3.4K pages, 36K text blocks, and 17K page connections...
I'm restarting my @RoamResearch database.
Why restart? Roam has changed my life!
well, so I can build it up again... LIVE
... with a group of you.

My ultimate fear with note-taking and productivity apps:
⢠All inputs, no outputs
⢠Busyness without meaning
⢠Sound and fury signifying nothing https://twitter.com/theflowingsky/status/1379616325308325888?s=21

Roam has legitimately changed my life. Never has an app:
⢠Felt like how I actually think
⢠Capable of systems-building, but not forced
⢠Let's me build compound interest around my thoughts
Using Roam is like "retweeting" my own brain.

In @balajis's incredible discussion on @tferriss Show, he talks about media as software:
The language we absorb actively programs the software of our minds.
Great note-taking apps allow YOU to program your own mind, instead of someone else doing it. https://bit.ly/3uwmkUE

Over time my Roam has grown, but I want to make sure the way I use it is INTENTIONAL.
And I want to apply what I've learned over the course of 15 months so it's maximally useful to me, instead of being a grab bag for every thought. https://twitter.com/MarcKoenig_/status/1377599068936019976

In March I got to co-lead a 2-day Roam workshop with @aliabdaal.
(Was fun & got near-perfect feedback
)
A big takeaway: it's a big task for even highly talented learners to apply game-changing frameworks in 4 hrs, if they're truly starting from step 0.

so NEW GOAL
Make a video series where folks learn Roam...
⢠1-3 items at a time, building on on another
⢠Over 30 days, so it can become a habit
⢠With 5 specific Core Use Cases to build toward
So I thought, why not do it LIVE with motivated folks first?

The course is called 30 Days of Roam.
This is beta, early access, hands-on for a select few people (targeting 30, no more than 100!)
I'm starting my Roam fresh so I can implement each technique as we go and at a natural pace.

The course is built for true beginners - or anyone who wants to add more structure and reboot their Roam.
This is early access so we'll be doing short-live sessions + Q&A together pretty much single every weekday (with recordings distributed daily to those who can't attend live)

Planning to take the learnings from this cohort and turn it into a self-paced YT series. I'm a firm believer that "beginner" level tutorial info "wants to be free" - and will be eventually. :)
So if you jump in, you're contributing to the future free access of the curriculum!

P.S. I'm definitely going to keep a backup of my current Roam for reference and to selectively restore in the future as I see how this goes. :)
But I like the challenge of starting fresh with everyone else!

P.P.S. I'm currently part of #ODCC1 Course Creators fellowship led by Andrew Barry @Bazzaruto
I'll be sharing more on my experience launching a first course while attending the @beondeck fellowship.
Follow along the journey as I launch and iterate with other creators!
