It starts there. I’ve done this maybe 10-15 times.
Literally just write out IN DEPTH what you want to be in 5 or 10 years.
one thing I’m extremely glad I have done- is create a “hive mind” of my own
in my cell phone notes
I never lack inspiration because I can always go deeper into my own brain- but here’s how I set it up

Here’s a good primer about this subject that I’ve written: https://t.co/ydqIhN3Kxk
Ambition signifies internal desire.

If you have True Desire, then you should fully believe in your capability to actualize said desire.
When you fully "BELIEVE" ("be","live") you ARE already said desire.
It may not be physical yet, but physical reality always follows..
Some of it may be an interest, but not in the immediate short term action plan.
You need to make a call on that. Like me, I love music. Wanna produce/create/etc
But have bigger priorities right now.
I create a short term priority list, and systemize a scheduled process around getting done goals from that.
Did that again this morning.
So I create a master note of “Hive Mind”
And will jot down every area of life. (Business, Athletics/Body/Health research, Music, Game, Investing, Philosophical shit, etc and more)
Then, I create a separate note in my phone for each of these major categories (Fitness)
So for example, fitness (category) -> athletic dev (meta concept) -> functional patterns, GOATA, hyperarch, ATG, old school Russian ideology (keywords)

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”
Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?
A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:
2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to
- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal
3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:
Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.
Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.
4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?
To get clarity.
You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.
It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.
5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”
Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.

Ask: \u201cWhat needs to be true for you to be all in?\u201d
You'll usually get an explicit answer that you might not get otherwise. It also holds them accountable once the thing they need becomes true.
