"I've often found it tedious to read an entire chapter of a book just to revisit a single quote, so my plan is to distill the best ideas into a fun and accessible deck." I like this version of this idea. And I think there are many ways you can spin such a deck/variety of decks, Ash.

I applaud you on experimenting, stretching yourself from the comfort of digital to tactile.

I'm amplifying great vision and courage to take different paths as we all move into a new Future of Work, Ash! I speak about GenZ as the Explorer Generation - using their own compass to create the maps for this new world of work, because the maps of the Industrial Era are outdated and in tatters. Your compass North Star is "creative".

Love your analogy. It certainly resonates a lot. I have a document I check every week on my computer named "Compass" with my strenghts, bottlenecks, goals etc...

I just DM'd you on Twitter, but I'll park my latest newsletter edition here too as it may be pertinent. What you are doing with this deck of cards is responding to a signal by taking agency (action). Who knows where this may lead 1000 days from now?!

Querido Ash,

Podrías pensar en una app en lugar de algo físico? Solucionaría problemas de envío y pago para quienes estamos alejados.

Muchas gracias por tu trabajo.

Un abrazo!

Mario

Dear Ash, could you think of an app instead of something physical? It would solve shipping and payment problems for those of us who are far away.

Thank you very much for your work.

A hug!

Mario

In this day and age of digital distractions your card idea is a perfect for some but in my own experience another accessory like a deck of cards will also disappear as do my library of books I intended to read , started but never completed. In my case I think your posts will resonate sufficiently so if one inspiration or idea hits the mark your reader will bookmark it. Just my two cents...
