One of my favorite quotes of all time...

[Paras Chopra @paraschopra]

This is a really good #book.

It aligns with my worldview of a curiosity-driven life, where actions are what matters while outcomes are merely stepping stones to something new and amazing.

It’s a playbook on how to play infinite games in life.

Someone put together a list of all the book recommendations made by founders and CEOs in Hampton recently

there’s a book club now that one member started which is pretty cool.

NEW WHOOP RESEARCH ON EXERCISE & SLEEP

I am proud to share that @WHOOP research has just been published in @Nature. Our study analyzed 4.3 million nights of sleep across ~15k WHOOP members to answer a simple but important question: does working out at night hurt your sleep?

This is actually crazy.

PMs, start vibing. This guide is unironically very good.

[GREG ISENBERG @gregisenberg]

how to prompt like a pro

1. first: share your raw idea
2. ask: “what’s unclear, risky, or missing?”
3. then: “make this resonate with [my audience/customer/community]” insert data about them
4. finally: “what would [0.01% top expert in my field] do here?”

way better results.

I grew a SaaS from 0 to $80,000+ using cold emails ONLY.

It costs $0, yet most developers won't even ever try...

How you can do it too:

1. Pull B2B leads using TripAdvisor, Yelp, etc.
2. Collect lead details (owner's name, city, last post on Instagram, etc.)
3. Add information to a CRM pipeline, like Streak
4. Send a first email using a template like the one below
5. Jump on a call with the biz owner, explain how you can help them achieve <outcome> with your startup
6. Set up 2/3 automated drip emails for recovery

It's boring.

But you will make money faster than with any other marketing channel.

I bought a 5 acre forest for $375k after 20 banks rejected me.

11 months later, we were charging $1,000/night for treehouses.

A year after that, we sold to Wall Street for millions.

Here's the story of Onera – my first treehouse hotel: 🧵

Boston Consulting Group (BCG) trained an AI slideshow maker called “Decker” on 900 templates and apparently gotten so popular that “some of its consultants are fretting about job security.”
