Every course creator hits this moment: "I learned this from someone else. How can I teach it?" Here's what you're missing: The second you applied it to YOUR situation, you made it yours. You adapted it. You tweaked it. You made it work in the real world. That implementation? You own that. Your students don't care if it's "original." They want what worked for YOU.

Solo operators don't need a team. They need leverage. AI is the lever. Not because it replaces your thinking — but because it sharpens it. It questions your ideas, critiques your assumptions, and doesn't hold back when you ask it not to. That's harder to find in the real world than you'd think.

You're sitting on a solution someone would pay $1,000 to learn. But you think: "This is just what I did. It's not special." Here's the truth: The fact that you can do something today that you couldn't do yesterday—and it was hard to figure out—makes it valuable. Someone is stuck exactly where you were. Your "normal" experience is their breakthrough. Stop waiting for permission to share it.

It is impossible to steal my intellectual property. Why? I give it away! To the degree possible, I believe we should all be knowledge philanthropists and share everything we know. Let us get real. Anything we understand today is built on wisdom generously shared with us by others. In my own life, Paul Hersey, Peter Drucker, Frances Hesselbein, Alan Mulally, and many other wonderful teachers freely gave me their insights. They did not charge me. They taught me because they were kind and generous human beings. Please visit MarshallGoldsmith.com for free articles, videos, and courses. Please visit MarshallGoldsmith.ai to receive my answers to your questions. Although I am not charging money, I do hope that you “pay” me by sharing what you learn with other people. Life is good.

Claude DESTROYS ChatGPT for marketing on LinkedIn. I put together the Claude LinkedIn Marketing Funnel (below) Claude is by FAR the best at building building marketing funnels. I use my info combined with my prompts to build out marketing strategies, assets, and funnels. My prompts are INSANE and replace entire marketing teams. I compiled ALL my Claude prompts into one doc: • Lead Magnet Generator Prompt • Lead Magnet Asset Prompt • Lead Magnet Funnel Build Out Prompt • Claude Landing Page Prompt • Personal Content Database Prompt • The Premium LinkedIn Profile Prompt • Competitor Analysis Prompt • ICP Analysis Prompt • Tech Stack Want access to the doc? → COMMENT "Claude" → FOLLOW me and I'll DM the doc!

In 1762, Parliament tried to screw John Harrison out of the £20,000 prize after he solved the "impossible" sea clock problem. He had to get the KING involved to force them to pay up. Here's the difference with your course: When you solve someone's real problem with your actual experience? They'll throw money at you. No king required. Your battle-tested system beats their broken promises every time.

In 1707, Isaac Newton—literally Isaac Newton—said building a clock that would work at sea was impossible. A random carpenter named John Harrison with no formal education spent 31 years proving him wrong. Newton had the reputation. Harrison had the reps. Guess who won? The internet is full of credentialed people teaching theory. Meanwhile, someone who just DID the thing is changing lives in a $97 course. Be Harrison.

@dkare1009 Claude

Anthropic just launched a new certification: Claude Certified Architect 👀 It was FREE for the first 5,000 users. Now it’s priced at $99. And honestly... I’m still going for it. In 16 years of my career, I’ve never done a single certification. Not AWS. Not Azure. Not Google Cloud. Not PMP. Not Scrum. I learned by: Building. Breaking things. Shipping. But this feels different. Claude Code isn’t just another AI tool. It’s a shift in how software gets built. • Agentic workflows • Tool orchestration • MCP integration • System-level context handling If that sounds overwhelming — that’s the point. This certification is designed to take you from confusion → clarity. If you’ve been feeling like: “AI is moving too fast” “I’ll learn it later” “I don’t know where to start” This is your sign. Stop scrolling. Start building. 🚀 I’m going for my first certification ever. Want the links? 👇 Links in DM Simply: Follow me (so I can DM) Like & Repost Comment “claude”

@grablekelly05 @JoJoFromJerz Ever heard of the first amendment

@JoJoFromJerz We will see. It will be appealed and overturned. The press has no rights.

Good. Fuck him.

@WorkflowWhisper Playbook

I built 31 automations for clients last year. Every single business - from solo founders to 50-person teams - needed some version of the same workflows. So I documented all of them. Every workflow. Every department. And the exact plain-English prompt that builds each one in minutes. Sales & CRM: lead capture, follow-up sequences, deal tracking, proposal generation, pipeline alerts Marketing: social scheduling, email sequences, content repurposing, UTM tracking, review requests Operations: invoice generation, payment reminders, inventory alerts, automated reporting Customer Success: onboarding emails, NPS surveys, churn detection, support routing Admin: meeting scheduling, expense tracking, document generation, approval workflows Each one includes the specific prompt I use to build it - not vague instructions, the actual sentence I type. Plus which 3 to start with if you want to save 10+ hours/week immediately. Comment "PLAYBOOK" and I'll DM you the full PDF for free.

@PrakashS720 Plugins

This might be the biggest shift in knowledge work since GPT-4 launched. Claude Cowork Plugins went live January 30. Most people have no idea they exist. Here's what they unlock: Instead of typing the same prompts over and over, you install a plugin once — and Claude becomes a specialist. A legal document reviewer. A financial auditor. A resume screener. A board deck writer. I spent 40 hours building the complete guide: 53 pages of step-by-step instructions Full plugin architecture (slash commands, sub-agents, MCP servers) 10 real workflows you can copy-paste today Giving it away for free. ✅ Follow me ✅ RT + Like this post ✅ Comment "PLUGINS" below I'll DM it to you directly

@atamdesign Exactly. I just had a conversation recently with somebody and by, giving him some ideas, it made me realize there’s an area that I could help people with but I wasn’t sure before that

@roddaut Yes! It's incredible how easily we discount our own knowledge & experience, while admiring what others have already learned!

I used to think my experience was "too normal" to teach. Everyone knows this stuff, right? Then I watched someone struggle for 6 months with a problem I'd already solved. That's when it hit me: What feels normal to you is only normal because you did the hard work. Your "obvious" solution is someone's game-changing shortcut. Stop downplaying what you know.

The moment I stopped trying to teach everything and started teaching what actually worked for me, my courses transformed. No more: "Here are 47 ways to do this." Instead: "Here's how I help people write quality articles in 60 minutes when it used to take them 5 hours." Students don't want options. They want a path. Your experience IS the path. Stop making it complicated.

Yesterday, I met with Anthropic and OpenAI and Google. (Separately, of course.) And while the conversations were largely confidential, I do want to share some aggregated reflections on the day as well as general SF takeaways. ⬇️ 1) Competitive advantage as a solo practitioner really does come from taking action and finding an area with a bit of friction and doubling down. Ex: memory management right now isn’t perfect, but allocating an hour to improving that system gives you a ton of leverage over others 2) SF continues to be the number one place for AI work. I know that’s not surprising. I would put New York at a healthy second place. SF tends to be more about crazy agent experiments for the thrill of capability and discovery and NYC tends to be more about kinda crazy agent experiments to find new ways to make money. Not saying either is better. But I met several people renting two apartments to straddle these worlds. You want the frontier of SF and enterprise insights of NYC. It’s one reason I travel between them so much. 3) All AI labs want to hear more from people. All of them. What are you using it for, what do you like, what do you hate, what do you need. Users have a TON of power on the direction of these tools. Keep testing and tweeting at them!! 4) There is very clearly a third customer cohort that is bubbling and underserved. It’s not developers…it’s not the business professional basic users…it’s builders. Everyone can build now. It’s marketing and sales folks vibe coding. It’s legal folks building complex skills. It’s a finance expert building a side project. This is a really undertapped customer base. They feel the Cursors of the world are too complex and doc summarization tools of the world are too basic. 5) Not sure if it was just sample size, but far fewer people were wearing tech gear compared to when I lived in SF. Everyone was still dressed casually, but I used to see Splunk and Optimizely and Slack and VC gear everywhere. People seem more in stealth swag now. 6) We may soon have our world model moment. 7) Speed of iteration and shipping is faster than I’ve ever seen. We see the nonstop drops from Anthropic. We see that because of scale, providers can get a much faster feedback loop of products or features that aren’t hitting. A lot of 2025 was experimentation, but ever since the OpenClaw moment over the holidays, the releases from all three labs have been more concentrated on…things that sorta look and feel like OpenClaw. 8) Small teams can pull off more than ever before. Small teams are the powerhouses of innovation right now. This means that finding new ways to share knowledge, break silos, and remove duplicate work is going to be even more important. AI agents functioning as actually teammates that support an entire system is key. 9) Build more Skills. Build better Skills. 10) Misinformation on AI tools and leaks spread FAST. I’ve seen so many fake stories on these AI labs. Your company needs to actually TEST these tools on your actual use cases to know which models and tools are best and you need to not make large-scale snap decisions based on a rumor of a rumor of a rumor. We will see more volatility. Plan for it. 11) You can feel the seriousness of this moment. Even during random conversations I had in line at a cafe. Lots of folks worried about job loss and lack of meaning. 12) Mac minis were sold out ;)

@omooretweets @Readwiseio save

Hachette just cancelled the publication of a popular (fiction) book facing credible allegations of AI use The most fascinating part is watching readers edit their Goodreads ratings in real time People who loved the book when they read it now hate it if AI was involved 🤔

@ohhanxiety Yes. And we were better for it.
