Each article I consume will be divided in one of these categories.
Right away I will decide if it is tweet worthy or not.
If not, then I eliminate it!
Remember, FOCUS!

Where do I start?
I recommend that you start with content you naturally engage with.
Start to follow your natural interests.

I personally started my journey here on Twitter because of the following YouTube accounts:
@AliAbdaal
@wtennyvideos
Both give educational content on their own special way. Throughout their accounts I found different sources of additional content.

How do I collect all my sources?
My main way of collecting articles is through e-mail.
E-mail is perfect for organization of the influx of information.
I check e-mail about twice daily.
This is perfect to keep me updated with new reads without getting overwhelmed.

Google scholar alerts:
Me and @Th3Brainiac are working on something together about flow and neuroscience. I keep myself updated on new articles by having a Google scholar alert.
You could also use a RSS feed. I might experiment with that one in the future.

Medium notifications:
Most of them get straight into the folder of deleted items. There are however certain pages that interest me:
- The Ascent
- BetterHumans
- Forge
Medium offers a lot of articles. Select heavily while asking yourself which article will be useful.

I have other less systemized ways to collect inputs of information like Twitter, books, conversations etc.
Not everything needs a system.
Just make it a habit to note down every single one of your great ideas!
