Take on a Personal Project
Have fun and make something you are proud of
Hey there đ ,
As an engineer, you should build that personal project you canât stop thinking about.
You know the one.
If you think about it when you're bored, it's a good sign that you'd enjoy it and learn something too.
What fun project idea has been popping up in your brain that you want to build?
If itâs hardware, build a CAD model or 3d print some parts you want to test.
If itâs software, sit down and start coding.
Start today and enjoy the process of discovery and learning.
In todayâs edition:
Make something fun
Donât be afraid to fail
Showcase what you learned
Steal our best value stock ideas.
PayPal, Disney, and Nike all dropped 50-80% recently from all-time highs.
Are they undervalued? Can they turn around? Whatâs next? You donât have time to track every stock, but should you be forced to miss all the best opportunities?
Thatâs why we scour hundreds of value stock ideas for you. Whenever we find something interesting, we send it straight to your inbox.

They had an idea and took action:
Jet-powered chainsaw (sounds dangerous⌠but why not?)
This is super impressive.
I might need to build one of these this winter.
Is it time to enhance the desk setup?
He couldnât find what he wanted, so he built his own leg.
Come on now, what engineer doesnât love Star Wars?
I love the prototyping process these guys go through.
Persistence pays off.
A gilder would be fun to build.
Donât be afraid to fail
All of these inventors and engineers made several prototypes and experimented. This means they didnât make anything perfect the first time.
When they inevitably failed, they saw it as a learning opportunity and werenât discouraged by it.
You can do the same and have fun learning new things and testing your ideas IRL!
Showcase what you made
Just like these creators made videos, so can you.
Share your projects with others and inspire the next generation of engineers!
A bonus of sharing your work is that it shows your skills to companies that might want to hire you.
So what are you waiting for? If you were waiting for a sign, this is it!
Go build something today!
