Last Week’s Struggles and Lessons (Week Ending 12/1/24)

Current Project: Reading books about entrepreneurs and sharing what I learned from them

Mission: Create a library of wisdom from notable entrepreneurs that current entrepreneurs can leverage to increase their chances of success

What I struggled with:

  • No material struggles this week  

What I learned:

  • I overestimated what I could get done during this holiday week. I need to get more realistic about where my time goes during holidays. I always think I’ll have lots of free time, but I never do.
  • There’s no easy way for people to share what books they’ve read on their personal websites or blogs. You can share on platforms like Goodreads, but not your own.
  • Entrepreneurs (anyone, really) can obtain books for free from many websites, but entrepreneurs don’t use them.
  • Sharing what you’ve learned from books is a manual, inefficient process. If it were easier, I wonder if more people would share what they’ve learned from books they’ve read.
  • Creating a tool to annotate a book isn’t as technically difficult as I’d thought.

Those are my struggles and learnings from the week!
