Chapter 1: The Power of Application

Engaging with numerous books can significantly enhance your writing skills. However, if your primary goal is self-improvement or elevating your business, mere reading becomes little more than a pastime unless you actively implement the insights gained.

During my conversation with Andrew Zavada, co-founder of Storist.me—a platform dedicated to assisting readers in applying essential concepts from popular nonfiction titles—I was eager to dive deeper into his venture.

Andrew initially hesitated, expressing, “I’m not sure. English isn’t my first language, and I’ve only been learning it for a few years.” Thankfully, he decided to share his story.

In Episode 117 of Stolaroid Stories, listeners will discover more about Storist.me, a burgeoning startup that empowers users to put book knowledge into practice.

Storist.me offers summaries of the top nonfiction works covering topics like business, personal growth, problem-solving, creativity, communication, relationships, leadership, and management. But it stands out from other summary platforms by integrating real-life examples, quizzes, templates, and interactive exercises, enabling users to translate theory into actionable steps.

With Storist.me, you might feel like a superhero—maybe not quite Iron Man or Wonder Woman, but definitely capable of achieving great things. Andrew has generously provided my audience with complimentary access to explore the platform's offerings. (You can find the "Storist" links to the books we discussed at the end of this post.)

And there’s even more. Andrew is offering a fantastic 60% discount on a 12-month subscription using the code “stolaroid,” valid until the end of 2023.
