I last sent out a newsletter on August 29th, so it’s been about 3.5 months. Things have heated up for me professionally, and I have been fighting through some injuries so I have struggled to find inspiration and focus to write.
I ended paid subscriptions, and for those of you who paid for a year, you should have been issued a partial refund. This means that all the newsletters in the archive are open to anyone. So please go check them out.
In the future, I still plan to send out essays now and then, but keeping up with a weekly publishing schedule isn’t in the cards right now.
While you wait for new essays, please scroll through some of the formerly pay-walled essays that you may have missed, and be sure to check out these newsletters:
P.S.
If you wish there was a Twitter where people were sane and nice, you really should check out Substack Notes.
P.P.S.
If you were a paid subscriber and felt like you didn’t get your money’s worth or if you think your refund was insufficient, please let me know and I’ll make it right with you. Thank you for your support!
P.P.P.S.
If you are interested in the US Army’s Ranger School, I have made a bunch of videos covering the Ranger Assessment Phase and the Darby Phase, and I will be releasing more on the Mountain and Swamp (Florida) Phase soon. You can find them here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqCJXx8ae-LD6W0BcYeqadAPiJ6u97grB&si=gdYyHaKpxAQwO6Ad
Thank you all!
Hey Austin,
I’m sorry to hear you’d sustained some injuries. I wish you all the best and a rapid recovery. I assumed things might have been busier at the DoD given the headlines leaving you with less time to write.
Your writing has been a huge help for me. Your lessons in leadership have been invaluable to me in leading my household effectively and in giving the skills and confidence to even start my own business.
If what you had written and published so far was all you ever wrote that would be a resounding success. Your videos about commander’s intent and leadership styles have been especially helpful. If you found time to make more of that style of content that would be amazing.
If it interests you, I’ve made my own little video detailing my own journey thus far. I’ll post the link for you to see it as you are definitely a stakeholder in my success 🙂
