It's amazing how well it works!
Hi there. I’m your new superpower. 👋 It’s time to stop guessing what people think. It’s time to trade in your blind spots for true self-awareness. It’s time to decode reality, once and for all. Your conversations will never be the same. mindreasoner.com/

I’ve secretly 🤫 been using a new product every week that is now live for everyone. Today we are launching Reforge Artifacts and it’s completely free 🆓. Take a look 👇 Artifacts let you access the real work from those who have done it before, so you’ll never have to start from scratch. Some examples: 👆 Product Review Systems from Casey Winters, Tom Willerer, and others 🧠 Product Strategy and Roadmaps from Adam Fishman and Sachin Rekhi 🪜 Career Leveling Guides from Julie Zhou, Barron Ernst, and Kevan Lee 🧪 Growth Product Experiments from Lauryn Isford, Matt Woods, and Ben Williams 📈 Quantitative analyses from John Egan, Dan Wolchonok, and Yousuf Bhaijee 🧐 User research projects from Amber Rucker, Mike Fiorillo, Shelly Eisen-Livneh And sooooo many more. You can sign up here → reforge.com Preview some artifacts here → artifacts.reforge.com/artifa… These are NOT blank templates. Artifacts are the real work that contain the substance, nuance, insights, and realness. Here are a few things you can do with Artifacts: 🔎 Find artifacts relevant to what you are working on 💡 Access notes from the creator about the story, lessons, and insights ⭐️ Save artifacts and share them with colleagues 🔁 Remix artifacts to create your own version Artifacts is such a simple but powerful idea I can’t believe we didn’t think of it before. I’ve wasted so much time recreating something thousands of others have already done. Artifacts can help accelerate a lot of work (like open-source code) by enabling building on each other. Would love to know what you think.
