Welcome to 'Short & Sweet!'
A new weekly newsletter by Afzal Hussein
Hey! 👋🏽
I'm starting a NEW WEEKLY NEWSLETTER. Here’s why:
I subscribe to tons of great newsletters and mailing lists, and each week I read a lot of ‘stuff’ on the internet. Each time I come across something useful, fascinating, fun or valuable I add it to Notion. Sharing is caring, so I thought I might as well share the best of the best every week with you. Nothing long. Just short & sweet!
If this doesn’t sound like something you’d be interested in, I hear you. Inbox stress is a thing. Feel free to unsubscribe from this newsletter (scroll to the bottom and click ‘unsubscribe’). No hard feelings! 👊🏽
Topics to expect: productivity, careers, finance, success, health, wealth, technology, startups, books, happiness, and more.
Each week you can expect valuable, useful, fun, and/or fascinating links to an:
Article
Product
Video
Website
Anything else that I come across and think is worth your time (a quote, thought, freebie, idea, news / etc.)
Last but not least, each week I'll promote one reader's blog / article / product / business / website / etc. free of charge to the mailing list (currently 5,000+ people strong!).
Just reply to the newsletter (using the subject: Promote my [XYZ]!) with whatever it is that you want to be promoted and a little background information. I'll select the one that impresses me the most from all submissions and share it in the following week's newsletter.
That's all for now. See you next week! 👊🏽
