I do a regular "subtraction audit" on my Post-it wall!

Hello David--this is Kylan (LA haiku). You said yesterday that practical tips don't sound like you, and yet this condensed set of tips is almost entirely "you" (as someone who's read your 2 prior books). Thank you for sharing!

I just tried writing the press release first. I've done something similar before, but not exactly thinking along these lines. An excellent idea! Makes you focus better than just the "elevator speech". Very best wishes with the new book you're off to a phenomenal start!

Thanks Mr. Author.

I can't believe that a NYT bestseller author replied me.

I am Nikhil from India. I also have started my substack journey 2 week ago. I am currently Physics Chemistry and Mathematics student in Grade 12th. I am writing so that I can earn money.

I'd be happy if you share some great piece of advice.

And yes, I read your entire article. I truly resonate with the idea of limiting. And also with keeping goals at our eyes.

Thanks for giving your precious time.

Nikhil B. Chandel
