I interview exceptional people on The Unblocked Creators Podcast. /// Enter The Creative Wayfinder Initiation to live an examined life.
You can despair over the uncertain future, AI overlords and all, or you can do what @thedankoe taught me. On a wild desert adventure, I met up with Mr. Koe to discuss what it means to develop agency & the antidote to worrying about AGI. Here's the story:…

Oh cool, 300 followers. Much love and gratitude to all of you!!
A vision that pulls you is far more powerful than a goal that obligates you.
Limiting beliefs are like invisibility cloaks over the reality of what's actually possible for you.
When you fall in love with life itself, you'll create a definite purpose for yours that never runs out of motive power.
The creator economy has a fatal flaw. No handshakes or eye-contact. This is why The Living Internet Alliance is hosting a convention. Meet in person & attend live talks from people like: @thedankoe, @IamProHuman, @itsdangoldfield, @HussainIbarra, @iamkimianora Link in bio.

The biggest mistake you can make is thinking that something is actually impossible just because you feel like it's impossible
Problem? No problem... Pen & paper. 1. Gratitude: 2. Grievances: 3. Goals: Repeat every morning for 5 minutes and tell me your life isn't drastically improving.
Hard to believe I'm already about to record episode 10 of the podcast. That means it's been 2.5 months since I promised myself I'd release weekly episodes for the first 12. Now I have 50+ guests lined up, so my new goal is weekly episodes for the first entire year! For those…
"What if they see me do something embarrassing?" Uhhhh, what if they see you do nothing and waste your whole life?
The future is just beginning. There will be a lot of noise. Join us, in person, in Vancouver BC, to tune in to the signal. thelivinginternet.com
You as a single person have more power today than a 20 person company of the past. The internet gave you the ability to learn anything. Social media gave you the leverage to reach anyone. AI is giving you the ability to create almost anything. Please don't waste it.
Your plan likely won't go as you expect, so you might as well surrender to the fact that it might go way better than you expect.
And one day, quietly, you realize: The distance between you and your dream life was never time, talent, or location. It was permission. And you finally gave it to yourself.
It's kind of trippy to realize that because of how mirrors work, I'm the only person who really notices my lopsided eyebrows and crooked teeth. You're usually your own worst critic.
Build deep rapport with a visionary tribe of action takers. Don't feel guilty for distancing from old friends who are squandering their potential. You'll be more helpful to them from the top of the mountain, sending letters describing the journey and the view from the peak.

Stop calling it a "side hustle" and start calling a business. When you say it's a side hustle that you're not serious about it, you don't care if it fails. But you do care. The faster you admit that it's a business, the faster you'll get the desired results.
Most people care more about feeling like they're doing the right thing than doing the right thing
