Best Of Content Sources

It started the way it does for most of us: I was in way over my head, learning so fast it was hard to keep up, drinking from a fire hose. So I began keeping anything I knew I’d want again, and filing it by subject. I hate learning the same thing twice. If I’ve learned it once, I want to be able to reach for it again.

What you see is that collection. Sometimes it’s a messy Evernote I wrote to myself at midnight. Sometimes it’s a PDF of a web article I decided was worth more sitting indexed in my own library than hoping to find it again on the internet. These days it’s also my own work — a hundred-odd Substack posts, panels and presentations that had started disappearing into nested Drive and Dropbox folders, which is the same discoverability trap by another name.

So I built this, and now I’m sharing it. My personal discoverability engine. No more searching and re-searching the web or my own folders — one place for the best of what I have collected and everything I have ever written or said. If I thought it was great over thirty years, it’s here.

It’s a habit by now, so it keeps growing. Scheduled jobs pull from my sources on their own, which means the shelves stay current whether or not I remember to tend them.

And the part I think matters most: members and coaching clients can add their own. Your Best Ofs, filed alongside mine, and you choose who sees each one — private to you, open to members, clients only, public, or gone. You own what you add. I’ve simply built the library and opened it, which may turn out to be the most valuable thing here: a living collection, built by people who have stood where you’re standing, with the answers already at your fingertips.
