ASE 2024, Subscriber Milestone, and The Olympics | August 09

In today’s exclusive content section, discover Tim Denning's strategies for boosting LinkedIn views to 50M+, a new (to me) editing tool for video creative, and tips from Fast Company on managing professional disappointments effectively.

Last Week, On My LinkedIn…

Encouraged by my teammate, Vito, I attended ASE 2024 and it was incredibly rewarding. The conference broke my remote work isolation, providing fresh industry insights and valuable networking opportunities. It was well worth the effort and travel, energizing me to return to work with renewed purpose.

We've surpassed 100 subscribers for my newsletter—thank you to everyone who's joined! I recently introduced an exclusive content section with leadership and technical insights, receiving great feedback. Now, I invite you to contribute by sharing relevant articles, posts, or videos that can benefit the community. DM me with ideas.

The Olympics illustrate the potential for a better world through increased cooperation and recognition of mutual strengths. This year's emphasis on mental health and recovery underscored the importance of balance in pursuit of excellence. The Olympics inspire national pride, showcasing the beauty of competition, unity, and camaraderie.

What I Found On The Internet…

While sifting through my pile of unread emails, I stumbled across a gem.

It was a newsletter from Tim Denning, sharing his journey of boosting LinkedIn views from a modest few thousand to an impressive 50M+.

On a different note, for all the video editors in my network, here's Descript, a tool that caught my attention recently: link to the webpage

It was after discovering Vanessa Lau, a prominent content creator, while seeking fresh insights across disciplines, that I was introduced to Descript through her engaging VLOG: here's the link to the video

The potential applications of this tool for our industry are vast. Embracing cross-disciplinary learning can lead us towards innovative ideas and tools, enhancing our tasks and projects.

Lastly, dealing with disappointment at work is an art that we all must master. It's an inevitable part of our professional journey, but it doesn't have to derail us.
