Hi all! I hope you had a great (personally) summer!  I took some time to hang with my family, meet new friends, and catch up with some really old friends.

Upon getting back to my emails, newsletters, and general flow of information, I feel that the first thing I’m doing is cutting down the email & substack subscriptions, followed YouTube channels and analyst reports…Cut the noise!  Over the last 3 years my inbox, timelines and other feeds are impossible to go through and properly digest.

Repost/share to see how others feel! Pls comment if you have best practices on how to keep it simple (FYI, I’m talking about “flow of info” related to investing only! )

For me, I have a huge list of resources that I pull info from several times a week, but I make quick decisions then and there if the information is worth my time. I may subscribe to 25-30 different substacks, but maybe only 3-4 of them have something I want to read each week.

Give myself the optionality of data, but keep a lean diet when it comes to consuming. I try to keep my process as insulated as possible in the early steps of studying a business, I don't want outside influence. Then when I have my own ideas, I will see what others think.

Also, welcome back, glad to hear your summer was good :)
