<prompt> Human: Since this sub seems to be primarily about saving, investing, etc., any suggestions for another sub where I could get a good number of responses to this question would be appreciated. Thanks, all.  <response>: One of the cool things about Ramit and being part of his community is that theres definitely a choose your own adventure element to what you want to learn about. If you tried to digest EVERYTHING he offers, I bet youd get burned out after a couple of weeks like I did. Once I realized that I only have a limited amount of brainpower to dedicate to self improvement, I started being a little more judicious in which things I would invest myself into. For instance, he sent out a message challenging his students to write at least 3 quick and short emails to someone anyone we admire thanking them on what specifically we appreciated. Bloggers, CEOs, your neighbor, whatever. So, I decided Id bite and sent out a few emails to CEOs at big start ups whos products Ive been loving in my day to day. I have heard back from EACH ONE. Out of the five emails I sent, three of the responses were within half an hour. Were talking people who probably get 1000 emails a day. In fact, one of the CEOs forwarded my email to his Chief Branding Officer who reached out to me and asked me permission to share the feedback with the whole company and also invited me to take a more active role in the companys community. I used that good will to invite her out for an informational interview and were meeting tomorrow for coffee and shes gonna show me her office and maybe even introduce me to some of the team. You know, I wasnt asking for a job, and I wasnt even looking for coffee. It started with a simple thank you for a product which I loved anyway. Opening yourself up to serendipity is what Ramit calls it. Could I have maybe one day done this stuff myself? Maybe, and then again, maybe not. I think all the material that Ramit offers is out there for free, just like really anything that deals with information think of Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting. Ramit brings it to one place, through a super filter of tens of THOUSANDS of surveyed results and experiences from his students. There will always be a reason to say no or to be super cynical. If thats you, then thats okay. If you approach it with an open mind, you might find yourself surprised as to how powerful his material can be. Either way, I wish you luck OP!
