Should you talk about politics?

"There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self."

Everywhere I go, I overhear people talking politics. I was in a coffee shop last Saturday in Amsterdam with my wife.

On the table next to us were three generations of a family—grandmother, mother, and son—drinking coffee. The young guy, who appeared to study in Amsterdam, had his family over for a visit.

We were already sitting when they came in. The first thing they talked about was the latest geopolitical news, which I hadn’t even heard yet.

Before they ordered coffee or talked about the guy’s studies, they talked politics.

This is not uncommon.

How I Created an Online Course With AI in 2 Weeks (Step by Step)

A few days after launching my course ‘Ai basics,’ I received an email from a reader:

Would it be possible to get more info on the tools you used for the course creation? (Outline, slides, recording, etc.) and for the landing page creation and promotion? I’ve started working on a course as well, but I’m struggling to choose between so many options, and they all come with pros and cons. I can’t imagine going as fast as you did.

But first, I want to say: You definitely can go as fast as me. Why not?! 

It just requires you to think differently. Think in possibilities!

Let’s start.

I stalled last year. I got comfortable. I stuck to what I knew. And guess what? My energy dropped. My motivation faded. Everything started feeling a little… stale.

It was a familiar feeling.

After graduating from university, I also drifted for a few years, not really pushing myself, just going through the motions.

Then in 2015, I snapped out of it and got serious—writing, publishing, teaching, copywriting, investing. I was all in. Every day, I was developing new skills, improving, sharpening my mind.

But last year?

How AI Shaves an Hour Off My Daily Reading Routine

ai reading shaving time off

Knowledge is power—especially in today’s world. But here’s the catch: You must apply your knowledge.

This is why I don’t want to spend too much time learning. I also want to have enough time to apply what I’ve learned.

In recent years, I’ve been reading more digital content. Before, I would probably spend 80% of my reading time on books. Now, it’s less than half. And I generally spend about two hours a day reading.

That’s because everything that’s related to technology changes so fast today.

But the problem is that we’re drowning in information. Keeping up with everything that’s interesting or useful is nearly impossible.

But a new feature of ChatGPT called Tasks has made my reading life a lot simpler. This feature is currently only available to paying ChatGPT users. So what I’m about to share only works if you have that.
