Irregular Reveries 9: The Modern Struggle
Hello there,
I hope you like the new format of this newsletter as much as I like crafting it.
I just got back from a week-long vacation, and I've enjoyed it since it gave me a lot of time to reflect and re-assess my goals.
This week's article
I have published a summary of the book about Zettelkasten this week. It's the best book on taking notes that I've read. I recommend it if you want to learn more about the benefits of note-taking.
This book has changed my perception of writing. Now I see it as a tool for serious thinking instead of only using it to write down what I've figured out in my head.

I've recently re-watched my all-time favorite podcast episode: Naval Ravikant on Joe Rogan. It's full of wisdom and resonates like crazy.
I loved how he described the modern struggle as a fight where you stand alone against large media companies that do everything they can to addict you.
