Resourceful entrepreneurs and business owners are always looking for ways to save time and increase productivity.

Note taking saves us time and and also costs us time, time that we can't ever get back.
 
 It saves us time because we record information we need and want to retain...

It costs us time because:

1) it can be hard to find the note we know we have, but can't find, easily or quickly when we really need it.
 
 2) it's hard to share notes with others. We have to take a picture then sent it to ourselves and then email it or worse scan it and then send it.

I developed a note taking system and used it for over a decade, but I still had trouble finding notes and sharing them. 
 
 I found the best note taking solution so far, have been testing it for over four months and lay the whole thing out for you in this episode.
 
 And yes, it saves time and increases your productivity!

Andy and Brandon talk how Andy became a cinematographer and tips and tricks about making video.

About Andrew Quinn
Andy began his adult life in the marine sciences, but a life-long love of the visual arts turned him down the path of film and photography as a preferred medium for understanding and translating the natural environment to others.

Quinn's work has taken him to dozens of locations on six continents and four oceans, atop high summits, beneath roiling waves, and through diverse cultural and natural landscapes.

While the majority of his work is outdoors and surrounded by nature, Quinn most enjoys and excels at examining the human relationship to the environment.

This applies to his personal life as well, where he can be found exploring the coastline and mountains of Central California with his wife, two children and dogs.
