Building AI-native businesses & seeking to unlock agency (AI + human). Using this as my public journal. Christian. Husband. Girl dad x2.

I've never met someone massively successful who hasn't gone through something that nearly destroyed them.

This is my favorite type of content to consume. Similar to OG DailyVee. But niche specific - no fluff - day in the life. Cool to see the teams, thinking, etc.

You don’t see neighborhoods like this anymore because most young parents don’t own homes. Less than 5% of mortgage holders are under 30 in major metros, and the average homeowner is over 50. That’s why most neighborhoods or suburbs feel empty, they’re owned by older people whose kids are grown, while younger families are renting apartments & priced out of the communities.

you should probably start vizualising

How the last 17 years of marriage have gone for me, as an entrepreneur: 2008: Me: "Babe, I think I'm onto something with this new business deal/idea. I really feel like a ton of money is coming our way here soon." Her: "Awesome!" Reality: Never happened 2009: Me: "Babe, I think I'm onto something with this new business deal/idea. I really feel like a ton of money is coming our way here soon." Her: "Awesome!" Reality: Never happened Rinse and repeat from 2010 - 2025, and then sprinkle in only 2-3 years of this: Me: "Babe, I think I'm onto something with this new business deal/idea. I really feel like a ton of money is coming our way here soon." Her: "Awesome!" Reality: It ACTUALLY happened this time Me: "Babe! Isn't that amazing!? I was right! Didn't I call it!?" Her: "It's awesome! I never doubted you." And she truly didn't. It literally brings me tears just thinking about her unwavering trust and love, when we've had way more down years than up years. The up years just make up for all the down ones, and then some. If you find a great spouse, and keep working at becoming a great spouse yourself, life just takes care of itself.

Our brain is wired to remember more bad than good. Conscious repetition of the good is important. You become what you repeat.

Imagine in 1925 you told someone that in 2025 we'd have - Self-driving cars, - instant communication with anyone on the planet for free in hi-res video, - Infinite encyclopedias in our pockets - self-landing rockets, - treatments for ~all common diseases of that time, - reduced global poverty by 90% - Instantly generated audio, video, text - Flying machines that take us anywhere in the world, any time. You would've been considered beyond delusional optimistic and yet, we've surpassed it all. What we consider delusional optimistic today might be the lower end of what we will hopefully achieve as a species in the next 100 years. Optimism is the way to go!


just found out the milky way flies at 600 km/s and flaps its wings like a butterfly at the same time. > there’s 1.1 billion atheist btw.
