Hi Aditi!

It's a pleasure to connect.

I love how you're combining two interests of yours together and I'm so glad my works has inspired you in some way!

Hi, Ash!

I'm Alex, a content creator, loving innovations and everything connected with them. I dreamed of becoming an inventor and change everything in the world from my childhood, and only now, in 26, I start to fulfill it slowly.

Usually I write content, but also create visual communication design, conduct research, interview people, and play music. Also I paint sometimes. Currently I learn social media development at work, where I organize the innovation media and community. I'm learning coding and 3D modeling, as essential instruments to realize my ideas in the future.

I was inspired by you and your path, so will be happy to connect with you!

Hi Alex! Thank you for replying to my email!

I'm so glad you've followed your purpose and executed your vision of changing the world.

You're so young! The best is yet to come. :)

You seem to be a modern-day polymath or renascence man, you have so many skills at such an early age. They'll allow you to build someone remarkable in the years to come.

Thanks again, let's keep going, my friend!

Hi Raihan!

If you like software engineering and marketing you have the two key skills to build and distribute your own products!

As Naval said, if you can build and sell, you're unstoppable!

Great post, Ash! The internet is incredible, but also leaves a little to be desired from a human-interaction standpoint.

At any rate, my name is Eric. I've owned a personal training gym in Minneapolis for the past 7 years and, thanks to Twitter, I began writing on Substack exactly 16 weeks ago, discussing every and any health-related subject I find interesting (including sharing a number of your posts and photos!). Biggest struggle in the past has been consistency, but reading newsletters like yours every week tremendously helps with my own writing :)

Cheers!

Hi Eric! Thank you for taking the time to intro yourself.

Love connecting with people who've had the courage to build their own thing.

Congratulations on running your GYM for 7 years! That's easier said than done. If running a digital business is hard I can't imagine a physical business.

Please, please sharing your interests with the world. The best is yet to come! Appreciate your kindness and support.

Cheers!
