Influential Reads – February 2019

Reading Time: < 1 minute

February 2019

I’ve still not gotten around to writing about my process for collecting, filtering (Feedly), reading, saving (Evernote) and reviewing my reading list.  I actually made a tweak to the process in February that simplified a step and started using the desktop version of Evernote. More to come…

I’m realizing that I probably spend more time on “expiring information” (see Compounding Knowledge article below) than I should be, so I am evolving my system to focus on higher quality reading.  

I’m also going to be posting my reading stats (I am no Brad Feld):

  2. 3 Signs That Tell Me Its Time to Let An Employee Go
  3. How I’ve Made Email my Secret Weapon – I deleted all my folders in Outlook and can’t find sh*t

Note: This is based on when I read the article, not necessarily when it was first published.  Unfortunately, my backlog of things I would like to read always seems to dwarf the amount of time I can devote to reading.
