When you’re feeling creatively blocked or you’re stuck on a specific problem (like how to connect one plot point to another), ChatGPT is an fantastic tool. If you ask it the right questions, ChatGPT will give you outside-the-box ideas to shake up your process and break you out of your funk. So, here are some of my favorite ChatGPT prompts that I use to break my creative blocks and get back to work.
Read MoreYes - ChatGPT has a memory. Which means if you ask it to remember something - something extremely specific - it will. It’s like having a personal assistant who never forgets. And lets you focus on what really matters: building more leverage. So, let’s dive into ChatGPT’s memory function and how to use it.
Read MoreIt may seem like a click-bait title, but it’s not. The productivity gains I’ve seen incorporating ChatGPT into my workflow is 100x. I use ChatGPT for research and writing, alongside 100 million other weekly users. If you don’t use it, go try it out right now. Seriously. Click the link above (not sponsored), get a free account, and start living in that space. Because this is the future.
Read MoreYou can walk into the future, but the stories you tell will be the same. Because tech changes - human psychology doesn't. Think of technology as the surface of the ocean—constantly shifting with waves and tides. Meanwhile, human psychology is like the deep ocean—calm, steady, and unaffected by the changes above. So, no matter what you’re building, your content needs to do at least one of three things that scratch the itch of the human mind (preferably all three): Educate, entertain, or inspire.
Read MoreI watched the movie, “The Wild Robot” last night and it got me thinking about the act of creation. Within each of us lies a spark—a primal urge to create. One of the greatest things you can do is to recognize that spark, feed it, and let it blaze from a tiny flicker into an unstoppable fire. But to transform that spark into a raging fire - the kind of creative fire it takes to successfully make an animated movie like “The Wild Robot” - you need help. And AI can help.
Read MoreThere comes a time for every creator when you need to close your computer and go out into the world. Feel the earth under your feet. Hear the hum of life around you. And open yourself up to serendipity.
Read MoreI’ve written before about the qualities to look for in a long-term business partner. But how do you find one? In the last year, I’ve learned the secret. Tara and I now have multiple projects going with high-quality partners and plenty of creative momentum. What’s the secret? Fair warning - you’re going to laugh cause it’s so stupid simple. Here’s the secret: Tell people what you’re doing, or (if you haven’t started yet) what you're planning on doing.
Read MoreAs a leveraged creator - someone who follows the path of: Create assets → scale them with free leverage → earn your freedom - it has become impossible to ignore how artificial intelligence can empower you - creators - to build whatever you want.
Read MoreIt was a big week. The producer Tara and I partnered with sent out our movie script to some of the biggest comedy directors you can think of. By any measure, getting eyes on our writing at this level is a win. And it got me thinking about how we got here. The most obvious observation I have looking back is how much all the progress we’ve made over the last three years was invisible. Not only was it invisible, but much of the time it actually felt like failing.
Read MoreI can now code despite never learning how. It’s a breakthrough that’s been on my radar for over a year. I touched on it in a post from August 2023, about the importance of judgment and taste in a world of infinite leverage. That world is now here. New tools are coming online each day to hand the power of code to creatives. What a time to be alive!
