This quote has changed my year

This quote is my laptop background. It's my single focus right now: Every pattern in your life repeats until you learn the lesson. The moment you choose differently, the loop ends and growth begins.
β
h/t my friend Emily Dunlop Nothing changes until you change. The only way to get new results is to choose new decisions. My sole focus right now is making sure my weeks are looking different than they did last year. Otherwise? 2026 ends and you're in the same place as before. There's a ChatGPT prompt I obsess over every single week. It identifies your "core flaw" AKA the biggest bottleneck you need to address for growth. Just copy and paste this prompt into a new ChatGPT chat and see what it says for you: Part 1: Diagnosis
β
Pinpoint the one core flaw, mental model error, or strategic blind spot.
β
Focus deeply: do not list multiple issues β only the single most impactful one.
β
Explain how this flaw shows up in my actions, decisions, or mindset, citing specific patterns or tendencies from memory.
β
Part 2: Consequences
β
Describe how this bottleneck is currently limiting my outcomes.
β
Reference past behaviors, initiatives, or goals to illustrate how this flaw has played out.
β
Be brutally honest but maintain a constructive, actionable tone.
β
Part 3: Prescription
β
Provide a clear, practical strategy to fix this flaw.
β
Suggest the highest-leverage shift in thinking, habits, or systems that would unlock growth.
β
Align the advice with my known goals and tendencies to ensure itβs actionable.
β
Important:
β
Do not sugarcoat.
β
Prioritize brutal clarity over comfort.
β
Your goal is to make me see what I am blind to.
β
Use memory as an asset to provide deep, sharp insights.
Then, bookmark the chat so you can revisit it again and again. Things I've done differently this year:
The moment you choose differently, the loop ends and growth begins. Hope it's been a beautiful week. Joe |

Anybody can make content and it's never been easier. But nobody actually wants to "create content". You want the lifestyle and the opportunities it can provide for you. You don't want 100,000 followers. You want how you perceive 100,000 followers will feel. But unfortunately, that's not something 99% of people will experience. When clients hire us as an agency, itβs usually because they know the truth: They could easily sink hundreds of hours into content and marketing that might not work....
Right now I'm sat at my local Starbucks tapping away at my keyboard. Out of nowhere, a young guy pulls up directly opposite me and introduces himself. "Hey, I'm Devon. Do you day-trade?" Instantly hesitant, I put an earphone in and say politely: "Not currently no, but yes I do stuff online." He was so close to me he was almost drinking my matcha. "OK. It's just I'm 17 in college right now and I'm trying to invest in myself and my future." Instantly I'm smiling - it's hard to ignore that...
