I read a lot and time and again I have been surprised or amazed by things that I have learned or come across all these years. I discovered Stoicism, Longevity, Bio-hacking, Berkshire Hathaway Annual Letters, Anti-fragility, Internet Games, and many more incredible subjects through these readings. These have shaped my life and put me on a path that Iām grateful for.
But everyone doesnāt get the liberty of time to sift through hours of reading material to ultimately find gems that could transform your journey or inform on stuff that matters. Hence, going forward, I will be sending out a newsletter every Wednesday with 10 links (audio/video/text) that I am almost certain could add value to you. If not all, then at least 1 could turn out to be instrumental/game-changing for your journey ahead.
I have a certain benchmark in my mind for this content before it comes on this list of rabbit holes. You can be rest assured that your time will be well spent if you choose to double-click on anything shared in this list.
