Accumulating thoughts is a really interesting way to approach a newsletter, looking forward to reading more of your thoughts and finding out about your journey. Thank you so much for recommending my substack - it was a lovely surprise this evening!
This is intriguing, Adam. What is the difference between an insight, a concept, and a principle? It seems, at first glance, that there is overlap. I'm curious about how you are defining them. Hope the organizing is going well!
A principle is something that solves a recurring type of problem, and is discovered by analyzing pain, an insight is a recognition of a pattern from my unique vantage point, and when I say concept I mean a new concept to me, there are overlaps but the main difference is how and where I find these ideas.
Analysis and reflection, observation, and study are the different ways to gather these ideas/notes.
I gather daily, and will select 3 for each weekly newsletter
The new direction of your weekly newsletter sounds perfect :) The summation of your daily notes above is thought provoking and I love how it has become your story. Our creative journeys are all so different and interesting to read about. You're inspiring me to get my Substack up and out in the world. Thank you!
