PinkLetter - Taking the foot off the pedal (for a while)

When I started this newsletter, I had a specific goal in mind: keep my tech skills sharp while I worked in a product role—it was a success.

Every week, I spent hours reading the internet for the best content. I subscribed to dozens of newsletters and put aside blocks of time to skim through them and curate the best 3 pieces of the week.

However, I’m not a product developer anymore. Well, at the moment, I’m still thinking about what to do when I grow up, but that’s a story for another day…

There’s nothing worse than a todo on the list that you don’t do (and keep moving back). God forbid if you don’t even know anymore why that ticket is on your board!
