Dear brothers, a brother is somebody who you love dearly and you care about in the brotherly sense. And when they come to you and they're like, I'm young, I'm old, I'm this, I'm that, and you do AI and I feel like I'm getting left behind. As a big brother, I feel an overwhelming sense of compassion and sadness when people ask me what to do and they have no idea where to turn. And so this one's for you guys. You know who you are by name, and for anybody who should find this that was never supposed to, I hope that this helps you as much as it helps them. To my dear brothers who have asked me this question time and again, in a world that is rapidly changing, where I'm scared of the future, what do I do? More importantly, where do I begin today to change my life to make sure I don't miss out with AI being so rapid and things just changing at a pace faster than I can comprehend? It saddens me deeply that men of all ages and of all walks of life come to me seeking advice, saying, "Please, can you tell us what to do next?" It breaks my heart so much so that I had no time to reply to their individual inquiries. And I never thought to do a video like this telling them what to do rather than guiding them, but I think we're at a point where people need to be told to wake up and realize opportunity is knocking at your door. Please rise and take it. If not, you're just going to miss out. and that could be a day, a week, a month, a year. I don't know. I cannot read the future, but what I can tell you is this: I thought on August 25th, 2025, that today I would be doing this in 2030. It's freaking absurd. And so to the boys watching this, to the men watching this, to people watching this who need to understand the importance of where this shit is heading and what to do, here's where I'd start. First of all, YouTube is Amazing. There is so much free content that all you have to do is instead of mindlessly doomscrolling dumb shit and wasting your life, you could literally just get on and start doomscrolling things about AI. I promise you that single action will actually help you start doing something about change. It will prompt you to get up off your ass and then ask better questions. So the first thing is substitute your unhealthy scrolling habit for something that's actually going to teach you something new in the world of AI. Either way, you're going to sit there scrolling. Great. You might as well learn from it. Now, once you've done that, you're going to see a few things pop up. You're going to see gurus, you're going to see guides, you're going to see people who have made millions, people who are claiming thousands a day, and everything in between. And you'll probably see somebody who said, "Oh, I wasted my life and my time and I made no money, and like, here's why not to do it." All of that spectrum of things in life is true, but don't worry about them. I'm only concerned with you. If you're watching this, I care about you because you were a brother of mine and you are somebody that I care about. Dearly, so please keep listening. Number 1, replace the scroll habit with something of utility, something of value. Number 2, once you've done enough of that, don't keep going down that freaking damaging spiral rabbit hole. It's dangerous. Actually take action. That means sign up to N8N, sign up to Claude, Grok, sign up to freaking Lovable, sign up to Replit, Cursor, anything that you come across that has a free subscription. Sign up for the goddamn thing. Do not worry about what you know and what you don't know. Just start. I wish that somebody would have pulled me out of my rut 3 years ago, and I'm burning here with passion because 3 years ago I was at a place where nobody helped me out, where I had to figure this shit out on my own, and it was so bad that I just didn't know who to turn to. The byproduct was having an amazing team who are now more important to me than anything in this world. And so when I'm on that journey, I see somebody stuck who's putting out their hand for help and I can't actually help them, this is the best thing they could do is go online, consume content that is free but is very, very valuable. There are so many people that do this, and if you really like this, hit me up in the comments below and I'll start dropping their names and share who they are. That's how a lot of my team began. Once you have done that, you want to go in and sign up for free shit. There are so many tools online right now that you can't even begin to fathom. Just follow the trail. Again, leave me a message. I will give you everything that you need. I just want to know what you want so I can be able to assist you better. Because at the end of the day, if somebody turned around and helped me get out of that position, I would have been grateful. And at bare minimum, if I give you someone to follow, someone to watch, or a place to start, I hope that with this passion and with your drive and with your belief that you don't want to miss out on a life that could be yours, that should be yours, just start, if I could give you one piece of advice from all of that, is it's not a matter of please. You are missing out by waiting. Every minute spent waiting is a wasted minute. We are not getting it back. You cannot buy back time that's gone. I implore you, I tell you as a friend and the brother and anybody who I would care about, if you have your heart set on doing something more in life and you don't know where to begin in the age of AI, leave me a comment. I will take the time out of my own hectic, crazy day with my team of developers who are building tools to give you a list of shit to follow. And I dare say, as I'm doing this right now, I'm probably going to have to give you some kind of resource. I am willing. All you need to do is find this video, leave me a comment, and I'm going to give you a list of things that I hope people would have given me. Thanks for watching. Sorry if it was too passionate. Sorry if it was too abrupt. But not sorry at all. The message is clear: do not wait. You cannot afford to wait, and just do the thing. As always, until next time, think your hardest, work your best, and please don't overthink this. Just start working. And if you have faith, or if you don't, well, then find it and pray, knowing that God has and always will take care of the rest. I'll see you in the next video.
