If you’ve always had multiple interests and are convinced that you lack the focus to specialize in a particular interest, you should probably (really) hit the play button right now!

Because Salman Ansari was once in your shoes too.

Today, helping people embrace the polymathic mindset is one of the key things he tries to achieve with his newsletter Quick Brown Fox, where he explores creativity, philosophy, fables, and more.

What truly makes Salman’s work soul food for every creator is that by sharing his story with you, he gives you the reassurance that you’re not navigating the creative world alone.

Not to mention the sense of calm that washes over you as you come across his work.
