Drowning in Information
LinkedIn Post
Drowning in newsletters, starving for insights?
→ I slashed my newsletters by 80%
Remember subscribing to that productivity newsletter?
The leadership digest?
That AI trends one?
Now your inbox is a graveyard of unread wisdom.
Sound familiar?
I’ve been there. Hundreds of newsletters, minimal retention.
Here’s one truth to face:
Information without implementation is just noise.
But there’s hope. Here’s how I turned my newsletter chaos into compound knowledge:
→ Audit ruthlessly
Unsubscribe from 80%. Keep only the gems.
I’m down to 25 newsletter and check monthly.
→ Set up a capture system
I use Matter.
I start to integrate more AI at this stage.
→ Schedule processing time
15 minutes daily beats 2 hours never.
(I love reading a newsletter, when I’m waiting in a queue)
→ Distill ruthlessly
What’s the ONE idea you can apply today?
Via my Capture system only my highlights from Newsletter
enter my System.
→ Connect and express
Newsletters become idea seeds for my posts.
They spark new connections in my Second Brain.
Reading them hones my long-form and engaging writing skills.
The goal isn’t to consume more.
It’s to build your knowledge flywheel.
