Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 09 March 2025 Hey friend, I started a new project. Creating a tool for something I get asked for constantly. Incessantly. "What happened when?" When did Mr Z email you? How many weeks ago did we start doing Y? This leads to me searching through mountains of emails for an answer. So I'm building a tool to help solve this issue. Stay tuned. Some Thoughts “The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to creative work, who felt their own...

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 2 March 2025 Hey friend, February is gone. It went twice as fast as January! But I'm celebrating a big month on Substack.

Some Thoughts The 10/10/10 rule is a simple heuristic you can use to help make better decisions that are robust and stay relevant over time. Before...

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 23 February 2025 Hey friend, I've just been sick for a week and came back to a mountain of emails. Whenever that happens, I always check in with my team first before even reading that first email. Then when I do dive into the mountain it all makes a lot more sense. Some Thoughts The “Third Door” concept, introduced by author Alex Banayan, suggests that beyond traditional paths to success, there’s a hidden, creative route accessible through persistence and...

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 16 February 2025 Hey friend, I wrote a note on Substack about a poem that a friend wrote. After years of writing she wrote something so beautiful it sparkled. But it took thousands of reps to get there. I won't give up on my own career until I get there. You shouldn't either. Some Thoughts "The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot." - Michael Altshuler Time is running away from all of us, so we need to be intentional with it. You may not...

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 9 February 2025 Hey friend, I've noticed a similar pattern in all successful people. Whatever sphere they're interested in.

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 2 February 2025 Hey friend, I've noticed a pattern. I feel anxiety. It builds for a few days. I notice everyone hates me. Nobody talks to me. I feel isolated. I wonder what I did wrong. Eventually I take out my journal and write about how I feel. The next day... nobody seems to be rude to me. Everyone chats to me. I feel free. I feel less anxious.

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 26 January 2025 Hey friend, I spent the last week thinking about the cost/benefit of my work. Am I doing too much? Is it costing me too much in other areas of my life? Should I be proud of myself for my efforts or should I be going harder? Do you ever wonder the same thing? Some Thoughts How can work make you happy? Well, to make you happy it should do two things. 1. Give you success that you have earned. 2. Include some service to others. When you feel like...

Welcome to our weekly newsletter! 19 January 2025 Hey friend, I have a little analogy for you this week. Imagine flying a plane. Taking off is the hardest part right? Then its just cruise. The same thing applies to learning. The beginning is the hard part. But don't give up. It gets easier. Some Thoughts Podcaster Dr Chatterjee used a really interesting phrase which I thought I’d share. He talked about putting the “spotlight of gratitude” on your life. Taking the time to focus on little...
