Hello! š
If youāre sat there thinking, āwho is this guy and why is he emailing me?ā then stay tuned, all your questions will be answered.
As a reminder, youāre getting this email because at some point in the last decade youāve moseyed on over to AndrewLynch.net, read some of my writing and decided, perhaps on a whim, to sign up for my newsletter, Human Capital.
In fact, a bunch of you probably got an email with my last post, What Tucker Max taught me about hard work. If you didnāt, check it out. Itās a doozy.
Anyway, a couple of updates:
The old format of Human Capital was a weekly email I sent out with the best things Iād read, listened to or discovered that week. Iām not sending out emails like that any more.
If thatās a huge disappointment, feel free to unsubscribe below. No hard feelings!
Since then Iāve moved into a new place ā literally, having bought a house, professionally, now being a senior leader in a small business, and personally, now that Iām married and have a dog.
So the focus of my writing is changing to reflect that. From now on, Iāll be writing essays on an intermittent schedule, broadly around these themes:
Buying, running, and scaling small companies
Becoming the most effective individual and leader you can be
Doing the above while staying, healthy, happy, and finding meaning in your work
If thatās your jam, great! You donāt need to do anything, and youāll keep getting essays like that, right to your inbox. In the meantime, you might like some of these posts:
Iāve also done a few twitter threads on similar topics that I plan on turning into full essays ā you can check out the twitter thread versions here:
As an SMB owner, how do I know if my Finance team is doing a good job?
Companies ultimately fail for only one reason ā hereās how to avoid it
Why stand-up comedy was the best thing I ever did for my career
How this CIA rebel field guide from the 1940s can help you be better at your job
And if this isnāt your jam, no hard feelings! Unsubscribe below, and I wish you all the best.
xoxo
