5 Sites to Help You Level Up
I bet you’ve never heard of №2.
A few years ago, I was a dull person. I was one-dimensional, at best. I had a few areas of expertise. I could talk about startups, financial markets, and technology, but beyond that, there wasn’t much else. I dreamed of developing a personality with depth, of knowing more about the world, and of having original ideas instead of regurgitating stuff I had read in an article or watched in a video. I decided to try and level up.
Now, three years later, I speak four new languages, I consume written content 2–3x the speed of an average person, and I can hold my own in a conversation with anyone about anything. I’ve noticed improvements in my decision-making, networking ability, and confidence. I’m making more money, my body feels terrific, and I feel happier.
Most of my growth over the past three years can be traced to five websites.
