📚 This Week's Reading List
Creativity
Is a Process, Not an Event by James
Clear (7min)
Creative thinking
requires our brains to make connections between
seemingly unrelated ideas. Even some claim that
“I'm just not the creative type” is a pretty
weak excuse for avoiding creative thinking. Your
creative skills are primarily determined by
whether you approach the creative process with a
fixed mindset or a growth mindset.

Shipping
is a Feature: Some Guiding Principles for People
That Build Things by Michael
Copeland (6min)
Shipping is a feature. Every PM knows this but it is
also the hardest thing to get right. As a PM you
throw around things like “the enemy of the good is
the perfect” or, well, “shipping is a feature” all
the time, yet we all have a hard time getting a
product out the door. There’s always more to do to
get it right. Once you release the product you begin
a new adventure building the next iteration.

What
is good retention by Lenny
Rachitsky (8min)
Although retention is widely considered to be the
most important metric to get right when building
(and investing in) a business, it’s also one of the
least understood. Why? Because unless you’re a
growth expert or an experienced investor, you’re
often relying on anecdotes, dated blog posts, and
misguided benchmarks. It's the best indicator of
product-market fit, it is the most important factor
in a user’s lifetime value, and high retention
drives all of the best acquisition strategies.
