What's up everyone, this is Alex Lieberman co-host of the Crazy Wands.

Welcome back to another abbreviated episode in the old Founder's Journal style of the

show.

This is going to be a short episode on how to crush and invest or update, so keep listening.

People have been loving the shorter episodes that we've been doing the last few weeks.

Jesse did one on off-sites, I did one on this building, a second brain course that I've

been taking that I've been fascinated by, so we're going to keep them going.

Shoot us a quick email to the Crazy Wands at MorningBrew.com and share the most pressing

Jesse and I both read all of these emails, we get back to all of these emails, and we

will pick some of our favorites for our upcoming short episodes like this one.
