I’ve read a lot of “same advice, new packaging” books… Digital Minimalism wasn’t that. Use technology intentionally. The Book Drop summary made the structure crystal clear. I’m copying one framework into my notes and testing it for 7 days. Will update if it sticks!

Honest review after the summary of Made to Stick: Sticky ideas are Simple, Unexpected, Concrete, Credible, Emotional, Stories. What surprised me most is how practical it felt. Not fluff.

Late-night read thoughts 🌙 Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
Longer thoughts on Why Nations Fail: Inclusive institutions create prosperity; extractive ones create poverty. I’ve recommended this idea to two friends already.
