Workpost 7: New AI Consulting Plan

Byjack

Okok. After working on my AI Consulting Plan for a few days, something is really fucking clear to me (excuse my French).

I need more than 10 days to make a name for myself. I am going to need 3 months. Videos are the absolute best way to make a name for myself. However, videos take absolutely forever to create.

So let us give us enough time to make them.

Goal: Be known, give preview of consulting

UNIT ONE (1 month): Build a crowd who will engage with anything I put out

  • Shoot 3 simple videos
  • Shoot 3 complex videos
  • Write 6 LinkedIn posts
  • Involve people every step of the way

UNIT TWO (1 month): Get people to start reaching out to me with AI questions

  • Create reaction videos to comments
  • Create videos based off on comments

UNIT THREE 1 month): Get big enough following to invite famous people on my videos

  • Figure out the platform I can get big on
  • Post on it consistantly

BONUS (1 day): Look for automation/outsourcing, try to make as low effort as possible

Ok let’s dive in deeper.

UNIT ONE (1 month ends March 22nd)

  1. Planning and setting up artifacts for videos (10 days ends March 2nd)
  2. Executing, shooting and editing (10 days ends March 12th)
  3. Feedback and editing for bigger videos (10 days ends March 22nd)

And even deeper….

UNIT ONE | Part 1 Planning and setting up artifacts for videos (10 days ends March 2nd)

  1. Create plans for each of the videos (4 days ends Feb 25th)
    • What videos I want to shoot (already done)
    • What those videos will look like in the intro (partly done)
    • What clips I need
    • What research I need
    • Who I need to talk to
    • When I need it by – figure out shooting schedule
    • How to break down each of the ideas into smaller content
  2. Figure out how to shoot each video (3 days ends Feb 28th)
    • Break down as much of the video as I can
    • If needed, come up with an imaginary best case scenario story just to know what shots I need
    • Solidify shooting schedule
    • Reach out to the people I need to reach out to
  3. Shoot preliminary non-essential parts of video (3 days ends March 2nd)
    • Shoot any part that I can that don’t require other people
    • Essentially get started with filming

Profit in Peace 13: Peace Disrupted Again

Byjack

My peace is disrupted, again. Today I have to get up even earlier and start preparation for work even earlier because I have to travel, and get on the plane for an early morning flight.

I am frustrated because of the complete stinginess in the finances, I have a lot of stress in terms of asking for a better setup such as traveling the day beforehand.

As a result, I didn’t sleep very well (if at all), and now feel tired and stressed.

I have a couple of things working in favor today though:

  • Because I woke up at 4:30 for a flight that boards at 6:40, I do have some nice free time in the morning where I can spend on myself and reconnecting with myself
  • I get to do my favorite thing of sleeping on the plane

Howling Winds in My Heart

I feel the howling winds

In my heart

The internal blizzard

Unforgiving

Being buried my a mountain

Of worry

The pain of the winds

In my ears

Today I did this. I felt much better afterwards, especially after the breaths. Those are really important as I discovered with the Bea Mackay and Wim Hoff methods. Saying the “I Love You” felt strange, especially since I’ve been feeling that I don’t like my face recently, just thinking I gained too much weight, but saying them I think I did feel the anxiety go away and I feel much more at peace, less stressed about work and everything.

In fact, I feel like going back to sleep.

Working On Instagram

Byjack

So things have been interesting recently. I have a lot of outlets in which to express my thoughts in: Instagram, video, blog post, journal, and slack channel. I don’t know where to post what. But I recently realized that I am taking my blog waaay too seriously. This blog is meant to be a place where I am boldly myself, but also giving me a staging ground to work things out, not come up with the final product. It is my place to draft out ideas, write poems about how I feel, try out videos that I’m not yet ready to publish. It is a place where I’m being unafraidly myself.

With that being said, I wanted to work out some of my thoughts with Instagram on this blog post. I have three Instagram accounts with an idea for a fourth one:

  • personal account
  • art account
  • coaching account

+ valorant account.

I’m going to take a stab at dividing purpose of different outlets:

Instagram – personal

  • Place to relax and talk to friends
  • Ask for help, suggestions
  • Practice challenges

Instagram – art

  • Place to work on art
  • Build worlds, characters
  • Find beauty
  • Ask about works in progress

Instagram – coaching

  • Place to remind myself different life lessons
  • Homepage for coaching, where I direct everyone
  • Write down what helps me reconnect with art

Instagram – valorant

  • Place to create training videos for myself to become the best
  • Reclaim mental

I don’t really know what the purpose of the slack channel is as current. Perhaps I can use it as a place to repost things that I post in different areas.

Workpost 24: Feeling Good and Business Plans

Byjack

Last night I was feeling some doubts about my coaching practice and I did some IFS therapy on myself to work through some of the shame and anger I feel around people rejecting my coaching or not seeing its value.

Today, I woke up feeling really tired but now I’m feeling good.

I’m working on stuff of my choosing and I really like it.

I’ve been thinking a lot about my business lately and what the starving crowd and what I want to happen.

I feel like I’ve finally cracked the code a little bit about selling high-ticket clients and expensive products.

So after listening and reading Alex Hormozi for two days here is what I learned:

  1. Charge an obscene amount
  2. Use that amount to create a crazy experience
  3. Solve a really big problem (to create really big value)

I think what really big value I want to create with my coaching is to help people create a masterpiece.

If I was to breakdown Alex Hormozi’s formula for value:

  1. The dream: create an artistic masterpiece – a breakout piece (this will make you a career in this space a breakout piece, you will feel proud of yourself, you will be able to call yourself an artist proudly, this will be the best work you’ve ever created)
  2. The certainty: I am an artist and engineer, I have a lot of experience coaching people through mental blocks, I will give you a guarantee.
  3. The time: 1 year
  4. The effort: without giving up your mental sanity, quitting your job, or disconnecting from family

Value of this offer: 250,000+

10-15%: 25,000 – 37,500

2,083 – 3,125 per month

Three stages:

  1. Explore art
  2. Establish your routine
  3. Create your masterwork

Objections/fears:

  1. I don’t have enough time
  2. I don’t know what I want to do
  3. I have kids
  4. I don’t want to quit my job
  5. I don’t know what other people will like, what if people don’t like it
  6. Too much work
  7. Keep switching what I want to do

Matches 2: Results From Day 2

Byjack

Match 1

Reflections:

  1. Ended up spending all the warmup time at the gym
  2. Feel amazing but felt the mental work was less exceptional
  3. Felt much more healthy and sustainable
  4. Found that walking every 5 minutes or deep breathing was extremely nourishing and helpful

Result Calculation:

  1. How much do I think this work is worth? I feel this work was worth less maybe $100-$175. The task for getting the test data was time consuming but straightforward. The coding required much more thinking, but I didn’t get extremely far with it.
  2. How difficult intellectually was this work from 1-10? Maybe a 5. Someone less intelligent could achieve this, but they would of course, need to put in a lot of effort.
  3. What percentile do I place this work in terms of innovation? 35% percentile. Pretty interesting ideas about character count. Pretty clever overall.
  4. Gains in communication and charisma? Not many gains, but will help me a lot with future work that will be very helpful in telling the story (looking at data).
