I know! Everybody’s Talking About AI These Days!

AI this AI that and how you have to get onto AI and use it in your business ASAP!

Which is true, however I’ve watched business & technology trends for over 40 years.

I started my first business when I was just 18 and even before that if you count my first paper round not including the leftover papers that ended up in the dump master at the back of the newsagent quite often whoops.

This AI thing is definitely different though. It’s like nothing I’ve ever seen before. This truly is the fourth Industrial Revolution it’s a technological revolution but the effect is the same and those who don’t get involved now will absolutely be left behind.

However there is time although it’s much less than ever before. All past innovations used to take at least 10 years to come to fruition or through to the mainstream.

This time it's gonna be much quicker exponential in fact, I personally foresee AGI by 2029 maybe sooner, maybe much sooner! However I think we have four or five good years and then things are really gonna change big time!

For those who are on top of AI and using it in every way that it can be used for their business, you will be part of the elite that will still have their own income from owning businesses when many others will be unemployed and on some form of UBI.

So I guess what I’m saying is is there’s a lot of hype out there however it’s not the same as before. There’s always been some new innovation, something you had to use in your business or get “left behind” but this is much much different so we do need get onto it right now!

And by the way I can help you with all of this but more importantly even through this AI shit storm with your Mindset. If your subconscious is not programmed for success nothing else will work including all the newest latest tech or all the best and most expensive marketing none of it will work unless your mindset is set for success!

And that's what I do, I literally program you for success!

Just sayin.

How to Quantum Leap from Stuck to Unstoppable!

A quantum leap — going from “Stuck to Unstoppable" — means rapid achievement of breakthrough results.

And the rules are different for breakthroughs.

You're aiming for a bold, dramatic goal that has stolen your heart. At the outset your #1 enemy is inertia. So instead of merely nursing the idea in your head, give it legs.

Here's the key rule: Fast growth shouldn't start slow.

"Get going" instead of bogging down in "getting ready." You won't get any great mileage out of careful planning, organizing, researching, and other time-consuming preparatory activities.

They're mainly distractions, just ways to avoid taking hard-core action that can move you toward your goal.

"Getting ready" is actually a seductive and sneaky form of resistance-a delaying tactic. You can rationalize, "I don't want to go off half-cocked. I'm aiming high. I need to think this through, study the situation, make sure I do this right."

But you'll be conning yourself. This is nothing but sly self-deception, a tricky way of avoiding the real work by doing stuff that lets you remain in your comfort zone.

Want the unvarnished truth? "Getting ready" is where big ambitions go to die. It's a graveyard where hopes and dreams get buried. All because people feel they need a clear "how to" for achieving their goal before they begin to pursue it.

Look, you're aiming for the stars, shooting for an exciting, high-challenge target that represents a quantum leap beyond your present status. Such a big ambition will take you into new territory.

You mostly have to draw the map as you go based on what you discover and what you learn.

At the outset, you can't know enough to craft a detailed plan. There are simply too many unknowns.

You can think, study, plan, and organize till the cows come home. But forward motion offers the fastest education you can find!

• It is by far the most productive way to do "research" and shape your go-forward plan.
• It puts you out into the world, showing you in real time what works and what doesn't.

Sure, you could hole up for months preparing for the actual pursuit of perfection, but as the saying goes, "No plan survives contact with the enemy." That in-depth prework which feels so important would be wasted effort.

Your quantum leap should employ a fast-break offense and full court press.

Proceed with a sense of urgency. A quantum leap is an entrepreneurial act, like a start-up venture. Your early steps may be shaky because you're journeying into the fog of uncertainty.

That's okay. Just rely on your creativity, intuition, and imagination. And go. You know more than you think you know!

Be open to new risks, unfazed by mistakes or setbacks, and relentless in pursuit of your goal. The primary objective in this process is discovery. Learning is the key metric.

When you do something that doesn't work, simply study the situation, find the lesson, adjust, and move forward.

Resume pursuit of your goal and regain momentum. Do what comes next. Do it now.

Progress, in and of itself, is motivating. It will energize you and build self-belief.

Advancing toward your goal silences your inner critic, the villain voice in your head that says you should slow down, lower your ambition, even abandon the idea of achieving your dreams. The villain voice lies. It fights dirty.

Your job is to outrun it, to prove it unworthy of your attention by virtue of your ongoing progress.

The secret is to move at speed and stay on the offensive.

How you begin says a lot about how you'll finish.
