What I completed this week (link to last week’s commitments):

• Read Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends & Influence People, which lays out Carnegie’s framework for improving interpersonal skills, building relationships, and making others receptive to your way of thinking; it’s a great book about learning to “deal with people,” as Carnegie puts it
• Added two more books that I read in 2023 to the library on this site—see more here
• Created a digest of A Technique for Producing Ideas that distills the book’s main concepts into a short document

What I’ll do next week:

• Read a biography, autobiography, or framework book
• Add two more books I read in 2023 to the library on this site—see more here
• Create a digest of one biography, autobiography, or framework book

Asks:

• If you know any senior full-stack developers interested in working on the software for my current project, please introduce us!

Week two hundred seventy-one was another week of learning. Looking forward to next week!
