Been playing with this idea recently that the only real MOAT left for humans I.e. being human, which effectively means aura + relationships + charisma
look at the kids of the new FinTech elite. They go to festivals, smash narcotics, frequent run clubs, story underground dj nights, etc.
the convergence of performative art for social media and genuinely retard/humanmaxxing
Barbell - either invest in the future of productivity (robots / energy infra / etc) or the high-touch human experiences (events / clubs / experiential / travel & tourism)
Both will win in 5 years time - beyond that, who really knows
One day you're 21 with a brand new degree thinking you're about to take on the world. Then you blink and you're 26, in a role you fell into because it was "available," earning enough to survive but not enough to leave. Five years of "just for now" and it became your entire career.
Flirting is a way of life. Do you smile at the pretty girls, compliment the older ladies, or wink at the moon? How about the birds, when they sing, do you whistle back in tune?
Or what about when driving, do you have a smooth touch & no fear of pushing your car to its limits? In business, do you dare to demand what you want? Are you bold with your plans? Does risk excite your spirit?
In conversation, do you say what you mean & speak with your chest? Do you deliver the risky joke without qualms who will take offense?
Do you stroll with your head held high - do your steps feel weightless? When you stand, are you relaxed or are you tense?
Do you treat strangers like you’re reacquainting with an old friend? Do you ever dare to divulge your well kept secrets? Are you present, there in the moment, or are you living in your head?
Do you breathe romance into everything you do, see the beauty in the mundane, & leave a trail of unrelenting positivity wherever you venture? You see, flirting isn’t just what you do to have someone fall for you - it’s what a healthy spirit does when they’re in love with life, & I will continue flirting into the afterlife
Levels to the game:
1. Rip & Run: works but short lived. Smash & grab.
2. Frameworks: better than from scratch as you build your skillset. But will almost never hit a grand slam
3. Derivative/Transpose: Modeling what's working in one biz, using it on another in a diff industry. This is where big wins start coming. Your ideas are unique enough to successfully transpose something working, over to your own thing
4. Instinct: At this level someone can tell you their product and you can rattle off monster angles, ideas, and things to test without actually thinking about it. This level is a license to print money. Partner with an operator if you have a thing, or partner with someone who has a thing if you dont, and there is a very good chance you will build something to scale
5. Tapped into the Source: you are no longer in the driver's seat. You become a mere vessel. There are many very successful people who talk about this if you listen carefully. Scott Storch calls it downloading from satellite. Some call it the muse. When you get tapped in and the work flows through you, the only rule is - listen.
Do not ignore the Source or it will stop transmission. Getting lazy, complacent, overconfident or arrogant are all ways to sever the connection. So is forgetting that it is no longer you driving.
Happy thanksgiving 🦃
Optimizing for the feeling of "aliveness" is the ultimate secret to life. It's basically expansion + joy + challenge + growth + presence in the same bucket.

"Debt is bad, never have debt."
Taking on some debt changed the course of the game for me. And if you've got the balls and conviction to bet on yourself, it can change your life too.
In 2021, I opened a 0% APR credit card and bought a $5k mastermind about email marketing.
I decided to go all in and take things to the next level.
Not even 2 weeks later, I had already signed 2 new clients worth $6k, both of which led to ongoing retainers.
The opportunity was good, and I knew that with what I learned in the mastermind, I could make it back fast.
So yes, if you have the balls and the belief in yourself that you want to win, taking on some debt can be insane leverage...
To have your freedom you either need:
1) So much money you don’t care
Or
2) So little money you don’t care
The prizes for being in the middle are like the prizes at Chuck-E-Cheese
Not worth what it takes to get them and you didn’t want them before you saw it on a wall
It doesn’t matter how badly you want it
You have to feel like you deserve it too
If you don’t and somehow you manage to get it
You will destroy it
I’ve never seen this not happen
That’s why inner work is just as important (actually more) as outer work
No shortcuts.
Nothing ever worked out for me in life until I displayed the confidence to go out and do what I actually wanted
Before that I failed as I was following everyone else’s path & dreams
Do you understand?
You won’t talk to hot chicks, won’t lift to max; won’t pitch wild ideas
Your entire life is designed around avoiding EMBARRASSMENT
You don’t want to LOOK like the little guy
But your rather BE the little guy as long as you don’t have to feel the sting of rejection
