When you're stuck between ‘not done yet’ and ‘no longer wanted'

I’m participating in an AI class led by Rich Schefren. The class is called ZenithMind OS. If you don’t know Rich, he’s one of the deepest thinkers you’ll ever meet. I met Rich about 20 years ago when he was teaching successful online business owners how to build a real business. Here’s a few of Rich’s accomplishments.
In the ZenithMind OS, he’s sharing the most detailed AI prompts I’ve ever seen. The prompts are designed to “give your brain the ultimate upgrade” as he calls it. Each day you enter a prompt that asks 20 questions that make you think deeply about your business and yourself. After seven days of deep self-reflection, ChatGPT identified my hidden narrative, the fears I don’t admit, patterns I must break, patterns I must adopt, and my next level self and a lot more. I’m starting week two today and this goes on for a total of six weeks. We’re essentially training ChatGPT to think like us on a very deep level. After ChatGPT summarized my week one input, I asked it to create 10 new taglines for me. I liked “When you’re caught between ‘not done yet’ and ‘not wanted anymore’” because it describes me and many of my Baby Boomer colleagues. Instead of going with my gut, I asked ChatGPT to rank the taglines and tell me why (I never thought to ask ChatGPT to tell me why). If my goal is to inspire and empower, “Not retired—just rewired for something better.” is the best choice. It gave me a ton of insight into each tagline depending on my goal. I’m only a week into ZenithMind OS and my mind is blown. This is going to take AI to a new level for me. I’ll continue to share my ZenithMind OS with you. Ted P.S. How are you using AI in your business and your personal life? |

I'm still enjoying the high from today's Peloton ride and pondering the nugget shared by Alex Toussaint. The Peloton instructors not only give your body a workout, they share inspirational thoughts that stretch your thinking. Today Alex shared something simple but powerful. "If you're making big changes in your life, don't make one big change. Take micro steps." Micro steps. Not one giant leap. Not some massive transformation overnight. Just small steps, one at a time. Seems pretty obvious,...
Whether you climbed the corporate ladder, built your own business, or spent decades making things happen in your job, your worth was measured the same way. By what you completed. Finish the presentation. Close the deal. Hit the numbers. Get to the next meeting. Every day was a race to complete things so I could move on to the next thing. And here's what nobody tells you about your next chapter: You bring that mindset with you. Last week, I caught myself feeling anxious because I'd only...
If your inbox looked anything like mine yesterday, you probably waded through about 247 "LAST CHANCE!" emails before your morning coffee. And now? Poof. The clock struck midnight, and those "once-in-a-lifetime" deals vanished like Cinderella's carriage. So here's my question for you: Did you participate in Black Friday and Cyber Monday as a consumer? Were you satisfied with your "investment"? Did you participate as a seller? The numbers are staggering. Consumers spent $10.8 billion online on...
