So one thought I’ve had before even watching this, but also reinforced after doing so, it is even easier now to replace Holy Spirit with a machine, computational factor math as Andy explains it’s. What do I mean? I’ve been really trying to involve Holy Spirit in the moments of my day—as many times as possible—but especially during transitions from one thing to the next. I also want to make Him my core advisor. And there inlays the battle, hurdle, risk. How many times do I go to my AI tool of choice before, or if at all, I go to God for even the most basic or complex of matters? Like right now I’m designing a new program for clients. I’m using AI a lot to bounce ideas off of and help me think through things—but what’s my ratio of running to AI vs Holy Spirit? It better be at least 1:1…but truthfully it’s not. Now thankfully God knows my heart and is a grace filled God, but that still doesn’t mean I have an excuse to espouse different behaviors than what I believe. Even though God forgives me for going to a machine over Him, just like He does when we run to man instead of Him first; it’s an area we need to be alert to so that our “meeting and project prep” involves Holy Spirit MORE THAN it does AI.

Curiosity can change everything in business and in life. Last week, it brought a new family member into our home. 🐾 When you #homeschool you learn fast that some lessons don’t come from books. This time, our son’s curiosity brought us Miku. Here’s how it happened. Our son was exploring ways to make life better for Abby Rose, our 8-year-old Shih Tzu who struggles with separation anxiety whenever we leave the house. While searching online, he found a 2-year-old rescue dog named Miku whose owner had recently died. What he didn’t know is that my wife and I had already been quietly talking about a second dog for some time. But if you have ever lived with a 13-year-old who latches onto an idea, you know why we hadn’t mentioned it. Needless to say, once he showed us Miku, we applied, and by Sunday she was home with us. In just a couple of hours, she was fitting right in and already helping calm Abby’s anxiety. Here’s what struck me. As part of his homeschool rhythm, he practices his 4 C’s each day: Curious, Create, Cultivate, and Connect. Without even realizing it, he lived them out. He was curious enough to search for ways to help Abby, created a new possibility, cultivated responsibility, and connected with something bigger than himself. That is what led us to Miku. It made me think about #business ownership. Some days progress looks like checking off the milestones you’ve been chasing. Other days it looks like an unexpected turn that didn’t fit your plan but turned out to be exactly what you needed. Both are progress if they’re moving you closer to the business and life you want. For us, Miku was that detour, and she is already bringing us closer to the life we want. What about you? Has curiosity or an unexpected turn recently led you somewhere better than you planned? #leadership #Entrepreneurship #dogstr

What’s up Nostriches! Found a Nostrich with too few followers… You know what to do #follow @Myles Let’s #grownostr

After a week of rough sleep I FINALLY got an amazing night of rest Praise Jesus! While I was getting a lot done, was super productive waking at 02:00-03:00, it was terrible on my deep sleep and heart rate. I’m very grateful this morning and fired up for all I can accomplish after being rejuvenated!

@melissa good to see ya around these parts again 🫸🫷

You gotta start with why, or as Steve calls it, your core values. I don’t care if you are a solopreneur with a team of 3 (you, yourself, and yin) or an entrepreneur with a team of a hundred… If you don’t know what you stand for, you will fall for anything and amount to nothing! Rare clip…

Broke one of my rules today—and of course it back fired 🫣 We have rules, agreements really, for a reason. Call them rules, bumpers, guardrails, whatever…but when we violate the rules, we tend to experience negative consequences. Thankfully the rule I broke was not a day breaker but it did affect me. I justified it in the name of relationships, which in my view is what leadership is all about. So I willingly sacrificed to make something happen, then the other party didn’t uphold their end of the agreement. …in hind sight was it ok to break my rule in the name of relationship or no, I should have stuck to my rule 🤷‍♂️

Help me out #coffeechain and #teachain this whole “brain turns on a 3am” along side having late afternoon meetings is gonna kill me today!

Good job oughta ya @Mandana I find simple solutions like Strike, Fold, Primal (for a double shot, BTC and NOSTR) are great onboarding tools; heck I even helped via Cash App and PayPal before. Meet them wherever they are… Then once there are here, we can help guide them to self-custody etc. But for the majority of people if you start with self-custody and private keys…they get overwhelmed and their brain can’t even compute becasue they’be never thought that way before. Get them here however you can and just like with investing, never apologize for taking profits—the same is true here. Never apologize for how you Orange or Purple Pilled them Let’s #grownostr (and #Bitcoin )!!! View quoted note →

Glad the major password safes / security companies are finally getting with the program 🤦🏻‍♂️ About time LastPass fully implemented public / private key pairs!
