Hey Everyone,
Welcome to the first edition of my Very Short Newsletter Full of Stuff for Clientsâ„¢. I've been thinking of sharing a short newsletter with things I'm thinking about and things I've found that my clients might find useful.Â
How often will I send this? I'm not sure. Weekly sounds good, but we'll see.Â
Things I Found This Week
John Danner on Why the Current Funding Market is Terrible for Founders
Andrew Gazdecki shared a great framework for how the CEO role evolves across a company's growth stages
Things Coming Up
There have been a few breakups and some relationship difficulties in the last few weeks with some clients, so I wanted to take this opportunity to share my reading list on romantic relationships in case anyone else might find it useful right now.Â
Things I've Been Thinking About
I've had Scott Belsky's The Messy Middle on my shelf for a long while, and I finally picked it up. I loved the charts (attached in photos) of "The Relative Joy of Creating." I've talked with a few folks over the last week about how a lot of the work we do together is building habits to help you navigate those "dips" along the way (the "ouches," "shit!s" "WTFs!").Â
That’s it for this week. I’m looking forward to what’s next.
Andy.
