I scroll the internet so you don’t have to.

My best finds from the week:

1)

Great reminder. The bigger your goal, the tighter your focus must be.

2)

A few of my favorite lines:

  • Be impatient with actions and patient with results.

  • You can be your biggest critic as long as you’re also your biggest cheerleader.

  • “There are million-dollar lessons hidden in $30 books.”

  • Don’t let an impressive-sounding title distract you from what matters most: doing work you enjoy.

3)

Got to work with Tyler during my internship at beehiiv this past summer. Killer operator. Phenomenal leader. Underrated writer.

3.5)

Looking for visuals and charts, rather than words, to understand the daily news?

Bay Area Times is a visual-based newsletter on business and tech, with 250,000+ subscribers.

4)

A few of my favs:

  • Who needs my help today?

  • What tough conversation am I avoiding?

  • What would this look like if it were easy?

  • What are my anti-goals? (worst-case scenario)

  • What’s something I’m happy to overspend on? (books)

5)

James is such a clear thinker and communicator. Worth the listen.

PS — What do you think? How can I improve?
