Second Brain intake | Mission Relearn

Tip: speak your answers instead of typing them

The questions below ask for stories, not keywords. That goes much faster when you talk. Install Wispr Flow: you hold down a key, you say what you think, and it lands as clean text in the field. It works on Mac and Windows in any text box, so it works in this form too.

Rather not install anything? Then type in half sentences. We will turn them into full ones.

Your answers are stored in this browser as you go, so you can stop halfway and continue later on the same device. They only reach us once you press send at the bottom.

The work

Where the time goes now, and what we tackle first.

1. Which recurring task costs the most time and returns the least?

Think of the work someone sighs at when it turns up on the planning.

2. Which three tasks would you automate first?

These three become the first skills we build together. Name them concretely, with an example if you can.

3. Where does knowledge live now, and what has been tried?

A shared drive, a wiki, a handbook, an AI subscription nobody uses. What failed is useful too, that especially.

4. Which knowledge is about to walk out the door, and who holds it?

Someone retiring, someone who is the only one who knows how a thing works, a role that is hard to replace.

The people

A Second Brain without an owner stalls within a month. Hence these questions.

5. Who becomes the brain owner, and how many hours a week do they get for it?

One person, by name. This is the most important question in the whole form: if that role does not exist, we advise you not to start yet.

6. Who are the three to five people who will use it first?

Name and role. Preferably the people who actually do the tasks from question 2.

7. How many people will end up working with it?

The technology

Short, and you may point us to your IT colleague or IT partner.

8. Who runs IT, in house or a partner?

A name and email address help, because we need this person during setup.

9. Which systems have to be connected?

CRM, ticketing system, shared drive, calendar, project tool. Brand names are welcome.

10. What must never end up in the Second Brain?

Customer data, personal data, rates, contract terms, anything under an NDA. Better named now than discovered later.

Agreements

11. Who signs, and which budget does this come out of?

12. What has to be true three months from now for you to call this a success?

As concrete as you can make it. This is what we hold the project against at delivery.

Anything else we should know?
