"work"

Prediction: the furious arrival of AI will create a renewed hunger for raw, unpolished, humanity. Invest in documenting your failures. Fact: we live in a time where if you create consistently about something you love or obsess over; it may be a year, or five, but eventually, you'll find a level of success that'll likely make you feel uncomfortable. This is good. And some of the best art you'll ever create will be from your spectacular failures. For example, my most popular podcast episode--What is Trauma--was the result of me realizing and admitting that I had been wrong about 'how to heal the psyche' for the previous 10 years. I thought you could heal through language alone; lol, oh dear little younger Erick! Getting something 'wrong' is literally what stimulates our nervous system to pay attention and attempt to learn something new. Document your process like you're a field biologist studying a wild animal, and share your field notes with us. Despite how sure people pretend to be, we're all trying to figure out just what the duck we are and what the duck we're all doing. Like...are we all contributing to the creation of a new god-like life-form everyday without realizing it because we check our phones 230 times a day, and our phone tracks every tap, pause, eye movement, and sound we make, and all of that will be data for the emerging godlike intelligence? Are we training it right now? Anyways, idk, but, share your notes.

Does thinking about all this give you the heebie-jeebies? It won’t… if you know how to make the pitch in a way that truly feels like a win-win for both parties… … and strengthens the relationship… … and leaves the other person feeling honored and appreciated (as opposed to being treated like a means to an end), whatever their answer is. Believe us, there are thoughtless and crappy ways to do all of the above. But you don’t have to do it like that. Ever. We’ll teach you how. Cold Pitch Magic goes live June 20th.
