My name is Doug Neill and I'm passionate about helping others reach their full creative potential. I teach a skill called sketchnoting (also known as visual note-taking and graphic recording), which for me is a gateway to doing better work. Check out the resources below for more info.

I read this book two years ago. One of the best books that I have ever read about creative living. It taught me deeply about creative living, as I decided to do writing to keep my creative living going.
Bro your way of explaining, and that visual imaginig was so splendid, really loved it
Love this book! Thanks for the reminders of what I loved about it.
Hi Joy! Glad the reminders were helpful :)
Excellent job young man! Loved it and I love this book and your work!
Thanks for the great summary!

I loved this process digital!
Thank you for this review! appreciate it
Glad you enjoyed it Bronson!
THANK YOU !
This is great👍👍⭐⭐
Thanks
Great content, you seem to be putting a lot of effort!
Anyways, i was wondering about an offtopic subject.
Even tough i am a visual learner and accumulate information trough sensory input, my thoughts are very verbal.( i can admit i have a low-grade aphantasia )
It is the same for you?
Just started with Procreate and struggling to find good pen and brush setup for sketch noting. Would really appreciate a future video on this and what you found that works well..
Apple Pencil. Learn how to make your own brushes and it will save you so much money!
I enjoyed the digital sketch note summary -- what's the setup/tools/apps you're using to record these?
Thanks Don! Tools: iPad Pro (1st gen), Apple Pencil (1st gen), the apps Procreate and Record it!, edited on an MacBook in Adobe Premiere Pro. Hope that's helpful!
@@verbaltovisual Thanks!
First!! Love you Doug!
Haha, thanks Kelvin!!!
I read this book. I honestly don’t understand what the big deal about it was. I have also listened to the author speak and found that she’s a much better speaker than an author. I feel like her other book “Eat, Pray, Love” (which I never read) was mentioned way too much in this book and I honestly feel like unless the books an author writes are supposed to be sequels to one another, then they shouldn’t be mentioned because it just sounds like a marketing ploy. If I wanted to read the other book, I would have picked the other book. But I didn’t. I picked this one which doesn’t do anything which it states as it’s intended purpose on the inside jacket description.
I was hugely disappointed in the content of this book especially since the description of the book sounded to be exactly what I was looking for. I also feel like this is geared towards writers, and specifically THIS writer, not even all writers in general when it was soupy to be geared towards creatives as a whole. I would have loved to hear more general examples over the personal experiences she gave because it became annoying after a while. I honestly feel like there wasn’t much magic to this book, and especially not BIG MAGIC that was happening as with every page I was waiting for it to get better only to be hugely disappointed. I had a few “yeah, I can see how that would be good to know/true!” moments, but nothing profound there. I believe one review I read said they savored the book reading it a little at a time so they could soak it up, process it and because they just didn’t want it to end because it was THAT good! I also purchased the book in hard cover because I thought it was going to be one of my new favorite books that I would highlight and dog-ear the crap out of it. After the book only taking me 2hrs to read, start to finish-in ONE sitting, I can honestly say that it did NOT meet ANY of those expectations! I would have much rather spent my time binge watched the authors speaking videos for 2hrs because I definitely got more out of the one 25 min video I did watch prior to purchasing the book (the one that convinced me to buy the book) and got more out of that than actually reading the book.
I don’t like to write bad reviews, but honestly feel like this one shouldn’t get the credit that it did. I honestly do not see what the hype about it is all about.
