By the Ocean Sunny 75 Degrees 6:48 a.m. When you’re here to do something real, something beyond just moving money around, there are periods where progress is obvious and there are periods where progress is not so obvious. Sometimes it just looks like nothing is happening at all. The Universe has a timing that usually…

By the Ocean Partly Cloudy 75 Degrees 6:04 a.m. “What makes you think that’s the best thing to do here?” That single phrase marked the beginning of a turn in my career years ago as a marketing consultant and copywriter. Jason 1.0 would not have been capable of asking a prospective client such a simple…

By the Ocean Partly Sunny 73 Degrees 7:56 a.m. Humans buy what they want. Almost always. So if they’re not buying, it’s because they don’t want it. But where does “want” come from? What is the source of “desire?” Why do humans so clearly want some things and not others? I imagine this question is…

By the Ocean Clear 71 Degrees 6:15 a.m. What’s the right word to use for someone who makes a living doing something they really love? Do we call that “work?” That doesn’t quite sound right. I don’t think we can call it “play” either. That sounds a little bit silly. The Matrix isn’t setup with…

By the Ocean Sunny 78 Degrees 9:04 a.m. Writing is talking in print. In school, this definition gets you an F. In business, this definition gets you everything you want.

By the Ocean Partly Cloudy 75 Degrees 6:46 a.m. In a world where the great A.I. borg will supposedly be doing more and more things, what will be left for the poor humans? The Matrix has so-well trained humans to fixate on WHAT THEY DO that the idea of that changing freaks people out. Hallelujah.…

By the Ocean Partly Cloudy 76 Degrees 6:55 a.m. As crazy as it might sound, when I’m working with a business owner, I’m not really trying to communicate with them. I’m on a quest for answers to questions we sometimes don’t even know to ask! So I’m not trying to get my ideas across to…

By the Ocean Sunny 76 Degrees 7:49 a.m. The less you “sell” the more you can charge. Why do you want to charge more? Because humans have been so brainwashed about the value of their contribution to the world that “charging more” is how we get closer to the truth. It forces you to grow…
