Click here to read this on our website instead A key part of my writing routine is gulping down an inappropriate amount of English tea (Yorkshire, to be specific). I fill the largest cup I can find, tap away at the keyboard, and swing back to the kitchen as soon as the final sip passes my lips. The timing is perfect—around 30 minutes per brew. And I have been writing a lot over the past two months to finish my book, Magnetic Writing. …Which means my mum’s lovely carpeted staircase is covered...

Click here to read this on our website instead In 2012, Jeff Bezos sat on stage at a fireside chat in front of hundreds of tech executives. He was asked a question about how he built Amazon. He explained: “I very frequently get asked the question, ‘What is going to change in the next 10 years?’ I almost never get the question: ‘What's not going to change in the next 10 years?’” He looked at the audience and continued. "I submit to you that that second question is actually the more important...

Click here to read this on our website instead Last week, 250 people applied to beta-read my first book, Magnetic Writing. It took 16 months to write. To celebrate, I visited a friend in Harrogate, a beautiful town in the green rolling hills of Yorkshire. As I sipped a Guinness in the sweltering sun, my friend asked what I planned next. My head wanted to answer that I would finally spend more time on AI. But my heart spoke first: I am going to write essays and begin my second book. He was...

Click here to read this on our website instead The heat rises to my cheeks as my bags smash to the floor. Everyone in the airport security queue stares at me. “This goddamn bag,” I mumble to myself, picking up the rucksack. It’s 3 weeks ago. I’m about to fly from Vancouver to the UK after 9 months of nomading. The toggle on my bag snapped 4 months before, as I climbed the beautiful peaks of Argentina’s Patagonia. I knew it needed fixing, but in my laziness, I pushed the plastic back together...

Click here to read this on our website instead Last year, I met a friend who gave me a new frame of reality. His name is Dan. We met in Joe Hudson’s cohort, Master Class, which focuses on inner work. On our first call together, Dan told me he was going to take the program as if he had invested $100,000. I, on the other hand, was squeezing the homework in between writing sessions, course building, and client calls. I skipped half the webinars and watched the rest at 2x speed. The cohort still...

Click here to read this on our website instead Last Thursday, I arrived in Miami after 9 months in South America. It’s the first time I’ve been to the US. It’s also the first time I’ve seen the Tesla Truck. “What a strange lump of metal, ”I thought to myself, as I strolled along South Beach. It looks like it could fit perfectly in the original (and fantastic) classic film, Judge Dredd. Love or hate it, one truth was undeniable: I could not forget it. Of the thousands of expensive cars I saw...
