Read 5 epic articles every day: Read Something Great

A. The Problem and The Pitch

What do you do when you’re bored? 😴

Do you doom-scroll through social media? 📱

Or do you endlessly browse before binging on Netflix? 🍿

We are usually looking for a quick dose of fun when scrolling on our newsfeeds & social media apps, with the average person spending over 4 hours a day tied to their devices!

With this, we're always on the hunt for something a little more enlightening to get our heads out of the doom-scroll & into a space that gets us thinking.

The only snag is after you've read Naval's latest tweet thread & Tim Ferris' 4-hour workweek has convinced you to quit your job; it can be tricky to source excellent content consistently.

We are in an information-overloaded era. Sometimes you just need well curated content.

And as fellow On Deck-er Kazuki remarked:

Once you find someone with content curation skills whose interests match up with your own, you can rely on them to do the leg work for you, sifting through all that new information to find what’s really relevant to you.

So, the next time you're bored, instead of scrolling:
