Thank you for today's newsletter! I think the audio recording is a great idea. It allows us to connect with you and your writing more. I read today's piece in your voice.
I do agree with the power of community. It allows us to take agency of our lives and having a group of friends with similar interests keeps us going in both good and tough times.
Thank you for your insights on reading and discipline as well. Early last year, I read a book from your reading list then, Emotional Agility by Susan David and it's one of the few books I find myself going back to re-read chapters (and harry potter too, lol). Most at times, it's difficult for me to re-read a book and highlighting has been a great way for me to circumvent this!
Anyway, have a good day and do continue with the voice notes.
Hi Arinze! Thank you for your newsletter. It's a handy reminder that I need to pick up reading this year, not just because it's an effective way to practice discipline but will also help expand my mind.
Also, feedback on the voice note is to please replace the background music with lofi beats for people with focus struggles.
A great read! (as per usual ) a book you should consider reading (If you haven't already ) is Feck Perfuction by James Victore ! it's a short read but quite Impactful .
Also decided to read a lot more this year and work on recalling and applying to my life. I’m using Notion to create databases of what I’ve read, but will also find other ways e.g. writing reviews to ensure I have assimilated the information I’ve read. I appreciate the tip on using Blinkist to read some books. Will give that a try.
The voice note is a GREAT idea, please keep it going! I'll definitely keep looking out for these little nuggets weekly (assuming Arinze's Weekly is back to being weekly 🙃).
Nice read. The function of the Blinklist app reminded me of Malcolm Gladwell's book titled "Blink". It's the ability to get the whole/ meaning of a subject at a glance.

I'm looking forward to reading Will by Will Smith 🤗
Feedback on the audio note, I think it's awesoem and would be great if you continued with it!
Hello Arinze,
Thanks for the newsletter,
You should definitely continue the Audio recordings, i think the impact of commuinity on the lives of people is not talked about enough.
Intentionality, accountability and investment in friendships is something i am learning, rather late, but better now than never.
Id love to hear about your experience!
Have a great week!
