If you’re reading this, you like learning and know the value that being a perpetual learner has for your business. We all have our preferred methods of taking in new information. For many of us, it’s reading great books.

As I suspected and wrote about a few months ago, the newsletter author exodus from Substack has begun. (This is my first tech prediction to come true, so I get to call myself a “futurist” now, right?) Substack might be easy to use, but they take a large cut of paid newsletter earnings, and apparently they aren’t moderating what’s being published on their platform as they said they would.

Hey friend, I’m on vacation now, trying to keep my laptop closed as much as I can. But I love writing to you so much that I couldn’t help it. So I opened the laptop…and the newsletter below happened.

I wish I knew your name, and I wish I knew you for real so that I could address this email directly to you. I don’t gather people’s first names, though, because the only reason to do that is so you can use a merge code in your email marketing platform that inserts people’s first name in the emails you send out, which makes it look like you know the person you’re writing.
