If we took the time and energy to develop healthy communication habits, we would maintain more of our relationships & less families would break apart.

Instead of just being alive,
we would actually live.

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

Some of us are so focused on optimizing physical health without prioritizing the true biggest predictor of longevity: social support. 1/2

Fun fact: I’m always making typos and it’s the most embarrassing thing ever

Go to events. Chat with that person you think is interesting. Learn what about what makes them curious.

Even if it doesn’t give you an immediate idea or next step, it plants a new way of thinking in your head.

It’s so subtle yet suddenly I feel much more expansive!

From the looks of stalking all of your profiles, it seems your last appearance on twitter was in 2021

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

A lot of my best ideas come in the shower. We need that time away from all the noise, social interaction, and internet scrolling to process the intake of information and make connections between them.

Freshworks is the worst customer service platform don’t use it unless you want to feel pain

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

You must develop the ability to be disliked in order to free yourself from the prison of other peoples’ opinions.

Guest speaker: “Who here has heard of ChatGPT? 😃✋🏼”

Ma’am you are literally talking to an AI class.

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

Lesson learned: do not make an annual payment for an AI software, pay monthly instead.

Because AI tools and capabilities change so rapidly you’ll probably find something even better for cheaper in a matter of weeks or months.

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

With the GPT-4 API, suddenly implementing wild tech ideas seems very possible. I am excited.

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

The fact that gpt4 has been released for less than a week and people have already build and launched apps, chrome extensions, chat bots, and full on startups is mind boggling.

The takeaway is that you may feel that your journey is non-linear, but the connections are very much there. And when you look back, you’ll realize the lessons that each stage was meant to teach you all along.

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

Windy career paths may seem like a bunch of scattered stars, but when you look back you realize they are all connected to form a beautiful constellation.

I may be sounding deep and cheesy, but hear me out:

[dyllen nellis @DyllenNellis]

But in reality I am using all the skills I have learned in these random fields all. the. time! Art for branding and design. Theater for video marketing. Tech for automation. Design for processes, interviewing, storytelling. And so much more!
