The Weekly Newsletter to Rule Them All (#1)
Brain Food, 5-Bullet Friday, James Clear, Dave Perell, Podcast Notes and MORE
Here goes nothing. I’ve been itching to start a meta-newsletter of all the best/most interesting ideas from my favorite newsletters and the procrastination has come to an end. I found myself combining insights across newsletters where it appeared natural/interesting.
My goal is to curate the best ideas from the world’s best newsletters to help you learn and discover what you want to subscribe to. I encourage everyone to check out the full newsletters and sign up for your favorites - links below.
Please like/comment to let me know if this is valuable to you and how I can improve/iterate content/format/etc.
Thank you!
Adam
