After 2 years of using ChatGPT, I can say that it is the technology that has revolutionized my life the most, along with the Internet.

So here are 10 prompts that have transformed my day-to-day life and that could do the same for you.

The anger you repress doesn't just disappear.

It turns inward and slowly destroys you from the inside...disguised as depression, self-criticism, or feeling completely stuck in life.

5 signs your unexpressed anger is eating you alive:

The President of the United States get shot at a live event, and seconds later.

A small team of photographers get whisked beneath the stage co-ordinated by a man in a suit.

Yeah alright dude 😆

Owning a small business is still the best tax deal in America.

The One Big Beautiful Bill just made it even better.

Whether it’s a $10K side hustle or $10MM business, the new opportunities for tax savings and wealth creation are next level.

Let’s walk through how it works -

fuck it, here’s a $2,000/mo side hustle you can literally run during your lunch break 👇🧵

@TheBlueDodger It’s too hot and we’re putting too much pressure on them for the goal/goals not to come. Should be a fun half as they lose energy. Seal up the counter defense and it’s off to the quarters.

@CFCZeno You know how Jackson could make us less harsh on him? Any ideas, any at all…?

[DAVID W @DWaltonjr]

@tovers98 Palmer really likes him, seems to identify with him. Pretty sure if Cole wants him here I also want him here.

My favorite Pop interviews. A thread.

Starting off hot with my favorite:

“Turnovers.”

CASE STUDY🧵: The random set of Facebook Pages that share clickbait feel-good stories that made over $90,000,000 since 2015!!!!

Since we used to work with these guys back in 2017, I know their EXACT assets and strategies inside out, and am sharing them with you here...

When we started working with them they were a bunch of teeny tiny pages. I didn't think much about them at the time, judging them for their super clickbait nature and their use of headlines that made me want to take a drill to my skull.

Clearly, I underestimated them. These two chaps ended up making over $90mm, profitably and with no funding. Very impressive.

Here's how they did it 👇

Your environment dictates your choices.

Change your surroundings before trying to change your habits.

The right environment makes the right decisions easy, while the wrong one makes them nearly impossible.

[non aesthetic things @PicturesFoIder]

This is perhaps the best thing produced by the internet in recent history.

@SidesMars @sierracatalina @natemcgrady Don’t you mean “ass-backwards”…

How to become a solopreneur:

(even if you have less than 5k followers)

1. Pick a high-value skill
2. Create a simple landing page
3. Use AI to write page copy that converts
4. CTA should be "book a discovery call"
5. Create 90 days' worth of ideas with AI
6. Write content for one idea daily
7. Go to LinkedIn and publish them
8. Answer questions when people ask
9. If they have more, ask them to book
10. Walk them through 6 questions:

- What's the problem?
- What have you tried?
- How did it work?
- What is that costing you?
- How big of a priority is it to fix?
- When are you hoping to have it fixed?

11. Send a recap about what you learned.
12. Describe how you'd fix the problem.
13. Explain how much it will cost.
14. Explain how long it will take.
15. Back into when they'll need it fixed by.
16. Ask them if they want to start.
17. If "no", try again tomorrow.
18. If "yes", send them a payment link.

Congrats. You're running a business.

P.S. Yes, I understand employment agreements and non-competes. Check them both, obviously.

P.P.S. There are 100x more decision-makers looking for help on LinkedIn.

Thoughts from the US

"In my life, I have watched John Kennedy talk on television about missiles in Cuba. I saw Lyndon Johnson look Richard Russell squarely in the eye and and say, "And we shall overcome." I saw Richard Nixon resign and Gerald Ford tell the Congress that our long national nightmare was over. I saw Jimmy Carter talk about malaise and Ronald Reagan talk about a shining city on a hill. I saw George H.W. Bush deliver the eulogy for the Soviet bloc, and Bill Clinton comfort the survivors of Timothy McVeigh's madness in Oklahoma City. I saw George W. Bush struggle to make sense of it all on September 11, 2001, and I saw Barack Obama sing 'Amazing Grace' in the wounded sanctuary of Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
"These were the presidents of my lifetime. These were not perfect men. They were not perfect presidents, god knows. Not one of them was that. But they approached the job, and they took to the podium, with all the gravitas they could muster as appropriate to the job. They tried, at least, to reach for something in the presidency that was beyond their grasp as ordinary human beings. They were not all ennobled by the attempt, but they tried nonetheless.
"And comes now this hopeless, vicious buffoon, and the audience of equally hopeless and vicious buffoons who laughed and cheered when he made sport of a woman whose lasting memory of the trauma she suffered is the laughter of the perpetrators. Now he comes, a man swathed in scandal, with no interest beyond what he can put in his pocket and what he can put over on a universe of suckers, and he does something like this while occupying an office that we gave him, and while endowed with a public trust that he dishonors every day he wakes up in the White House.
"The scion of a multigenerational criminal enterprise, the parameters of which we are only now beginning to comprehend. A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides. We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president* as currently occupies the office. We never have had a president* so completely deserving of scorn and yet so small in the office that it almost seems a waste of time and energy to summon up the requisite contempt.
"Watch how a republic dies in the empty eyes of an empty man who feels nothing but his own imaginary greatness, and who cannot find in himself the decency simply to shut up even when it is in his best interest to do so. Presidents don't have to be heroes to be good presidents. They just have to realize that their humanity is our common humanity, and that their political commonwealth is our political commonwealth, too.
Watch him behind the seal of the President of the United States. Isn't he a funny man? Isn't what happened to that lady hilarious? Watch the assembled morons cheer. This is the only story now."
