Hey there.

I hope you've had a great week.

What I've made for you

Book notes—The Art of War by Sun TzuI found this to be a very interesting read. It's very short—easily readable in one afternoon. While reading, I tried to make analogies to business and Chess, which helped comprehension. Highly recommended if you go for it yourself.
