❤️💣 Mission: Show Up
Show Up
The Background
Today my kids are back at school, but for the past 10 days during their break I put work and social obligations aside and simply focused on spending time with them, hanging out together and being a family. Sometimes the best thing you can do for someone is also the simplest thing: just show up :)
The Mission
This week, use your time to show up for someone in your life. Give the gift of your presence in a moment that's important to them.
I've been experimenting with and building in AI for most of November, so today, instead of me giving you a few examples of how you could accomplish this mission, I'll plug it into ChatGPT and see what it has to say: https://chat.openai.com/share/eaad3717-c019-4cc3-a69e-a7b7bb202939
There you go, friends - straight from the mind of our future robot overlords. Enjoy!
(I'm putting a pause on the Discord for a while because I've been too busy to jump in there and make it exactly what I want it to be, so for now feel free to reply to this email if you would like to share your results, or tag me on social anytime)

Between that moment and today, Josh joined our family group chat with the folks who work in the field, he went with me to the launch of the Mars InSight lander (my cousin worked on it), he started...
I'm restless tonight. Restless and unfocused, but creative. Not a great combination. My output would be muddled. But I can put these feelings to work a different way. Here's what I'll do: I'll create a list of interesting personal questions at the bottom of this email I will choose 5 to answer here for myself You choose up to 5 of your own, and reply back to me with your answers for yourself This is a way for all of us to have a low-stakes connection opportunity. If I get enough interesting...
I may regret this . . . it remains to be seen, haha 😬 But I think we can afford to give away our full $1,000/month YouBots platform to nonprofits for free, based on the money coming in from regular paying customers. For more details on where we are as a business, check out the LinkedIn post I just put up: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7322712667536642051/ If you or someone you know works for or with a nonprofit, they'll want to see this. It's probably easiest just to...
