What I learned from rereading Les Schwab Pride In Performance: Keep It Going! by Les Schwab.
Back in 2019, one of the co founders of my favorite app, the best app I pay for, I literally could not make the podcast without it is called Readwise.
I've been talking about it for years.
I've been tweeting about it for years.
Every single other interview on other people's podcasts, I go on, I talk about this.
And I did this way before I knew I was going to partner with them on my own product.
So I built this product with Readwise.
It's called Founders Notes.
You can see it@foundersnotes.com and it's founders with an s, just like the podcast.
So foundersnotes.com dot I got a DM from Tristan in 2019, and he was the one that made me aware of readwise.
It was perfect.
And the reason it was perfect is because I have way more highlights and notes on my books than most people do.
So I have over 20,000 over the years, I've added over 20,000 highlights and notes for all the books that I read for the podcast to the Readwise app.
And so, and the reason I do that is because I'm able to search everything that I've ever done.
I use this every day.
I search it every day.
It really is the world's most valuable notebook for founders.
So I contacted the founders of Readwise and said, hey, can we do this?
Can we actually do this project together?
I want to make my own version.
I want people to have access to everything that I see.
