It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Fis Fraga!
You can pronounce Fis as "fees" (or whatever creative way you might chose to pronounce Fis. And trust me... there are many, but don't worry, I love and accept them all).
And, of course, you can also go for my name, Felipe.
I'm a digital entrepreneur, author, M.Sc. in AI, and Tana Ambassador.
Among my favorite things in the world are: Board Games, Reggaeton, Coffee, Books, Learning, Mathematics, Spirituality, Meditation, Nature, Sports (especially Futevolei), and Primal Movements.
I love to live, and I also love to work!
My unique intersection lies in designing and creating knowledge management systems in Tana to combine human intelligence and artificial intelligence for productivity, personal transformation, business success, and holistic wellbeing.
This intersection is the aftermath of several years of exploration.
It all started in 2018, after completing university. At that time, I made a life-long commitment to live an intentional life and to assume the driver's seat (after noticing I had been a mere passenger for years).
This sparked the beginning of a journey.
In the following years, I dived deep into studying personal growth, psychology, behavior design, spirituality, health, longevity, self knowledge, and as an inevitable result, Knowledge Management.
In 2022, I obtained my Master's degree in Computer Science.
My Master's Thesis was an application of AI to PKM (Personal Knowledge Management). I designed and coded a Python system to automatically create AI Connections for any set of Highlights in Readwise, with structured semantic relationships between concepts and highlights.
But here is the crazy part...
Only a few weeks later, I got access to the world's most powerful note-taking software: Tana.
Tana presented the exact features and functionalities I'd explored in my Master's Thesis. A mix of Software Engineering concepts with a Knowledge Graph data structure, making it the perfect combination to integrate AI with PKM.
It was a match made in heaven.
Tana was made for me.
I understood Tana, and Tana understood me. It gave me the perfect structure for my unique way of thinking and representing knowledge.
This was the beginning of a transformative relationship between man and technology (me and Tana). Over these 2 years, I invested thousands of hours into Tana, using it as a partner for my thinking and development.
Here are some numbers.
In Tana, I've created hundreds of supertags, wrote hundreds more AI Prompts, wrote thousands of notes, designed many articles about Tana, and developed countless systems using Tana.
I've also published two academic papers about Tana, worked with clients and companies to improve knowledge management, and developed a methodology for Holistic Life Design with Tana Knowledge Agents (which will be available as a Cohort in January 2025).
All of this in 2 years.
And there was time for other things!
During this period, I also became a teacher for the Building a Second Brain (BASB) methodology, and worked with Tiago Forte to create his brand in Brazil, and to launch the translated BASB book and online course.
This partnership eventually led me to became a teacher on Advanced Prompt Engineering for Brazil's largest AI community, Academia Lendár[IA] by Alan Nicolas, with 5000+ members.
My intersection of interests was getting increasingly clear to me:
- Knowledge Management
- Artificial Intelligence
- Tana
But there was still something missing.
Since this journey started, back in 2018, one topic had been central in my life, but until recently was not yet included in my intersection of interests:
- Self-Knowledge
Ever since this journey started, I became more and more inspired to understand the Universe we live in. Including the most important part of the Universe:
Ourselves.
Self-knowledge is the greatest available form of knowledge. As Socrates would say: “To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.”
I am in a journey of self-knowledge.
And this was the missing piece all along.
This is not an external exploration of Knowledge Management, Artificial Intelligence, and Tana... These are all tools that can help me dive deeper into the mysteries of my own internal reality.
By combining technology with spirituality, we are better equipped to not only become more productive, but also find deeper fulfillment in life. And a lot of this goes through the inner workings of self-knowledge and self-reflection.
Right now, the world needs you to look inside.
It's only by slowing down and connecting to our deepest essence that humanity will achieve its greatest progress in the 21st century.
And let's be honest. It's about time...
"The greatest discovery of the 19th century was not in the realm of the physical sciences, but the power of the subconscious mind touched by faith. Any individual can tap into an eternal reservoir of power that will enable them to overcome any problem that may arise. All weaknesses can be overcome, bodily healing, financial independence, spiritual awakening, prosperity beyond your wildest dreams. This is the superstructure of happiness." - William James
When you stop to connect to your subconscious mind, to your soul and spirit... you will inevitably realize that the journey of life does not happen outside ourselves, but inside.
And we are all together in this journey.
We are all part of a huge interconnected living system which is planet Earth, Gaia.
It's through collaboration and LOVE that we will all raise Humanity to the next level of awareness, together.
Join me in this movement.
Stay Connected,
Fis
