best skill · S tier
capturing and holding attention. i put basically all of it down to this. it's worked on crypto, fitness, antiques, pets, motivation, cars, doomsday and AI, so i've stopped thinking it has anything to do with the topic.
10–20 million long-form views a month across the channels. two of them have my face on: crypto nutshell and neural nutshell, both about to cross 100K.
current goal
consistent six-figure months.
that's the number. the end goal is a farm in new zealand, 1,000+ acres.
current mantra
- "to improve our conditions we must first improve ourselves."
- "how can i 100x my output?"
