NYC is an intense city. Focus. Hood River? Not. Diffuse time. In this episode of 'Worth Thinking About' Daniel shares what he's been building since visiting NYC. It's a platform. It can help you change lanes! Don't settle for content creation when you can become a platform owner! Yuval Harari writes about the emerging 'useless-class' ruled by entertainment and unwilling to challenge change. The Emperor Marcus Aurelius wrote that the way to victory was through the obstacle, not around it. Our biology hasn't caught up with the rapidly accelerating change we face today. Don't rely on either your gut or your brain for the entire message to get going. Count on obstacles getting in your way when you decide to move. I'm building platforms for Dean, Lincoln, Mark, Edgar and Theoplexus. Thanks for watching my episodes, but take some diffuse time to decide to become a platform owner, and not become enslaved by entertainment to be \"dragged to a financial desert where you will choke on the dust of your own regret*\". Get your gear on. Come talk to us. We're changing lanes.

The Intelligent part was yet 5 years away. The combination of AI and syndication is EXACTLY why I am enriching the video transcripts. This actual work with Grok is building the KB corpus so I can distill it into the CODEX for Intelligent Netware under the IPG framework so others don't do what I failed to do." watch_stem: 360men-wta-204-deux-pivot watch_path: /v/360men-wta-204-deux-pivot.html related_article: Video/GARWIS_360men-wta-204-deux-pivot.md summary: "Daniel explains the pause in episodes: he is busy \"gearing up guys to change lanes, to make money as platform owners.\" He moves the method from \"I do, you watch\" to \"we do, we watch.\" Builder and teacher in one life, recorded for SI to understand both.

I am literally building hundreds and hundreds of websites for people to become platform owners — not content creators. What does that mean? **Daniel:** That means I’m really struggling to produce a single video a week because I’m busy gearing up guys to change lanes, to make money as platform owners. And the best I’m going to be able to do is give you a little… okay, it’s really busy on this hand. I hope you can catch up. [Music] **Daniel:** You don’t wear your earplugs and you drive a hypercar. You remember the launch site here, right, from earlier episodes? I’m just back from an incredibly intense and stimulating input from mobs and architecture and relationships and great memory time with my daughter and Mark. And wow — some interesting things to happen there. And I didn’t get this episode finished for last week. First time in over a year, I think. **Daniel:** We do, we watch. Again, working with a bunch of guys that now we’re launching their syndications. You have to iterate. You got to go back and forth. You got to go before and in between. Focus mode — highly intense New York — to diffuse mode. A chance out here just to sit and wait for a few days in some solitude, even turn off all your devices so that you can get an unction. You can hear clearly where to go. And sure enough, as soon as that unction comes and as soon as you start stepping toward it — BAM — there’s a new challenge. **Daniel:** And the lesson for the week and for your life is: don’t miss that. The obstacle is the way to go. Don’t try to get rid of the obstacle. Don’t go in debt to try to smile other it with finance debt. Lean into it. Find out why you got there. What’s missing in your belief system that you even ended up there? It’s amazing. You’ll have the opportunity to scale your beliefs, your skills, your character because you lean into the obstacles that are presented by God, by the invisible world, by fate, by circumstance — all of the above, really. **Daniel:** Great week. Fabulous week in New York. You guys, lean into your challenges. [Music] **Daniel:** You might remember that even just a year ago an episode on the brain/gut, right? Right here — how different is it? Sandbar almost all gone. It’s just a little tiny trail all the way back to town. Used to think about getting old or rely on your biology to nudge you enough to take the steps. Our biology betrays us. The man in the mirror doesn’t look like me anymore. We can’t tell time very well and things change. Yeah, all things change. You can’t rely on something being the same, especially going forward with rapidly accelerating change with technology convergence. **Daniel:** Okay, what does that mean? That means seize an opportunity when it steps up because the bus may leave. **Daniel:** That’s gonna have to be it for the week. I’ve gotta get ready for a meeting with Edgar and then Dean and then Lincoln and then Mark while I’m working on launching Theoplexus. And hint: come on you guys. Time to put your gear on. Talk to you next week.
