Summary of Today’s Show in 75 Words or Less, by ChatGPT 📜:

I recorded 20 videos in 2 hours and feel fired up. I finally hit my calendar goals on time and proved I can batch content fast. Even if editing takes a while, I’ve got momentum and a system. I’m also optimistic about getting accepted into the deferred resignation program, which would give me 5 months to go all in on building this business. If I can land just 3 clients per month, I’m financially good. The pressure’s on, but I’m ready.

Notable Quotes From This Episode, by ChatGPT

"Proper preparation prevents poor performance."
"You make the staircase before you climb the stairs."
"Once it is real, it’s not going to feel real."
"This is exactly what hard feels like."

Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by ChatGPT

"If I could just have an IV hooked up, dude, that’d be great."
"Welcome to Utah. It goes 75, 70, 49, 58, 66. What’s that, dude?"
"I took a 12 hour nap that was actually only 15 minutes."

My Thoughts / Feelings For Today 💭:

I feel really good today with how everything went, but now that it comes time to actually editing the videos, something I didn't talk about on the show cause I hadn't gotten to it yet, it is very frustrating and I think I might switch back to Reid instead of using CapCut. I think CapCut is great however, I think vide is better for what I need. other than that today has been great.

604. Trying To Be Thorough, Thinking Through Everything, Stoked 28:22

21 hours ago28:22

28:22

Recorded on: Saturday, June 14, 2025, 11:08 PM Episode Summary by AI I shared the behind-the-scenes process of building a massive, fully customizable Notion-based backend system for online fitness coaches. I vented about common frustrations, like vague definitions and tech limitations, and reflected on breakthroughs like hyperlinking client names and transferring databases cleanly. I debated pricing models, including $5K offers with tiered discounts, and emphasized the need to plan everything—renewals, onboarding, and client imports—with future scalability in mind. This is becoming more than a template—it’s a full system. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI “If you're worried about something, if you can do something about it, then do something about it. If not, then don't worry about it.” “I want them to value it. I want them to use it the way it’s intended to be used. And they’re not going to do that if I say, ‘Hey, it’s $4.’” “Better to have and not need than to need and not have.” Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI “Siri, what’s the definition of prosperous? Prosperous means successful in terms. Or is it prosperity?” “Do you think I know what the fuck prosperous means if I’m asking what prosperity is, bro?” “Lambo. Lambo City. The intro would quickly be realized as 29-year-old me calling me now.” My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m fired up but mentally overloaded. I feel like I’ve tapped into something huge with this Notion system, but every solved problem reveals ten more to think through. I’m proud of what I’ve built so far, but I’m also stressed about getting every single piece right before launch. I want it to be perfect, scalable, efficient, beautiful, and personalized. I’m thinking big, pricing boldly, and imagining what that first high-ticket sale will feel like. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Tested Notion database transfers, brainstormed system structure, calculated pricing tiers, debated business model logistics, researched Notion limitations and AI tricks, mapped workflows on a whiteboard, refined onboarding and renewal flows, explored customization options, planned client handoffs, and mentally prepped for high-ticket sales.

603. Good For Me, Weird Interaction, Mind Mapping, Zoom Call 1:24:01

2 days ago1:24:01

1:24:01

Recorded on: Friday, June 13, 2025, 07:55 PM Episode Summary by AI I figured out a way to bundle and transfer my Notion system more efficiently, even though it's still a pain. That made me realize its complexity is actually a good thing—it acts as a built-in lock against theft or over-sharing. I had a Zoom call with Trey where we mapped out renewal logic, brainstormed on a whiteboard, and realized how intricate this system really is. Sold a chair, ran two miles, made $484, and am thinking about buying a car. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "The more feedback that I get from these coaches of what they need in the system, the better my product is going to be because I know it's literally what the fucking market needs." "Any time spent not working on this is time that's being pushed further back on me achieving kind of my goals on everything." "I took advantage of every single one. And here we are." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "Instead of kicking, putting a toothpick under my toenail and kicking a door, a hundred times I' only got to do it twice." "I looked down and saw a little kid. It looked like he was just straight up pissing in the pool." "I don’t know when I started, dude. I’m not going to start a timer now." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m oddly hyped. Everything’s coming together even though it's messy as hell. That Zoom call with Trey made me realize I’m literally building something people are already paying for, and I can sell it later. I’m proud of figuring out some of the renewal logic and of pushing through two miserable miles. Selling the chair and getting paid today felt solid. I'm thinking bigger now—about cars, systems, the whole package. Just trying to stay on it and keep moving forward. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Figured out Notion transfer workaround, sold my chair for $100, ran two miles, brainstormed renewal system on whiteboard, had Zoom call with Trey, mapped out CRM logic, reflected on pricing and business model, made $484 total today.

3 days ago31:55

31:55

Recorded on: Thursday, June 12, 2025, 11:08 PM Episode Summary by AI I walked through my chaotic workload juggling projects for Mina, Dawson, and Trey, while also testing Notion’s limits with workspace copying and relation issues. I shared how my new calendar setup and shift routines are helping me stay somewhat organized. I reflected on how much better life feels now versus my old 9-to-5, reconnected with an old mentor, and realized how mentally exhausting but fulfilling this work is. Major roadblock discovered in Notion cross-workspace linking. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "You know, being in the gym and lifting weights, that's cool and all. But being outside in the sun and stuff, that's cool, bro. That's really cool." "I have so assuming ideas, dude, that I want to implement and I want to work on it." "If I can pick and choose who I'm working with, then I'm going to pick and choose who I work with." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "That just shits inside my pants for me." "Siri, what's the definition of anguish? Fuck." "I have a table called shit in Trey's workspace." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m feeling completely overloaded but also kind of proud of the progress I’m making. I’m grateful for the people around me, especially Trey, Mina, and Dawson, but I’m hitting the upper limit of what I can realistically manage. Mentally, I’m taxed. I love the systems I’m building, but the tech limitations are pissing me off. I want everything to function right, without breaking shit. I need sleep. I want simplicity. I’m trying to stay ahead of it all. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Worked for Mina, Dawson, and Trey, ran track sprints outside, used Notion Calendar synced with Google Calendar, built Notion systems, tested workspace duplications, reconnected with Mike Manfry, reflected on 9-to-5 burnout, debugged Notion cross-workspace issues.

601. New Car & Debt Free Goals, Frustrations, Annoyances 48:32

4 days ago48:32

48:32

Recorded on: Thursday, June 12, 2025, 12:13 AM (this is for Jun 11th though lol so late) Episode Summary by AI I pitched a Notion-based backend system to a high-level business mastermind and unexpectedly got green-lit by one of the biggest names. That led to internal friction with another leader, which brought up frustrations and doubts. I mapped out how to package and price my systems at $5K to $10K, backed by how little that is relative to million-dollar businesses. I also broke down my debt payoff plan, saving strategy, car upgrade ideas, and what this entire pivot could become. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "Every time I build something, I'm just going to put it into my own page, my own workspace, polish it off, get everything working the way it needs to work, send it." "If I sell something for 10 grand, all I got to do is sell 10 a year, bro, and I'm 100K club." "Even getting to this point in my journey here makes me so thankful that I've documented everything up to this point." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "Don't crash your car, bro." "You eat wiener, bro." "Show me a locomotive. That's so sick to me." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today – Summarized by AI I’m excited, overwhelmed, and kind of frustrated all at once. There’s massive opportunity in front of me, but I’m also hitting walls with people who don't get it. I know I'm onto something powerful with these backend systems, and I'm finally starting to understand the true value I can bring. I’m also thinking long-term—about money, freedom, even a new car—but I know I still have a lot to build, learn, and prove. What I Did Today – Summarized by AI Pitched a backend system to a high-level group, navigated conflict with leadership, planned debt payoff timeline, calculated system pricing strategy, explored car upgrade options, built systems for clients, reviewed team sizes across businesses, analyzed income vs. pricing, and reflected on my entire journey from coaching to Notion to coding.

600. I Think I’m On To Something... Fired Up, 5 Businesses, New Ideas, Zoom Call 1:44:22

5 days ago1:44:22

1:44:22

Recorded on: Tuesday, June 10, 2025, 11:12 PM Episode Summary by AI I reflected on the 8-year anniversary of my first bodybuilding competition and shared a major update: I now officially work for Trey, Dawson, and Mina, potentially Ryley too. I explored how these Zoom calls are essentially sales calls and questioned if I've been selling the wrong thing all along. I dove deep into the idea of building a scalable back-end infrastructure business for high-level fitness coaches, considering packaging everything into a plug-and-play system priced between $3K and $15K. I also explored what value truly means and how I could position this offering for maximum impact. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "You can't see what you can't see. You don't know what you don't know." "You're not buying time. You're buying clarity, scalability, and peace of mind." "I want to be responsible for my life and my actions, be the reason why my life is in the place that it is—not because I got won the lottery." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "On June 8th or 9th, I was darker than a Mexican." "On the third hand, which would be my cock, I guess..." "I'm on a 10,191-day streak of pissing." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI Today I feel fired up, overwhelmed, but also kind of electrified by this shift I might be stepping into. I'm seeing my value in a way I haven’t before. I’ve got three legit clients and I’m realizing I may have stumbled into a whole business that I actually love. It’s not about coaching fitness anymore. It’s about building shit that makes people’s lives easier. I feel like I’m right on the edge of something big, but I’m also wrestling with the unknown. Still, I trust my gut. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Had a Zoom call with Trey, officially joined his team, reflected on my 8-year bodybuilding anniversary, explored the idea of productizing my systems work, reviewed Hormozi’s value frameworks, brainstormed pricing strategies, questioned my future in fitness coaching, and considered building a scalable ops offer for high-level coaches.

599. Hired x3, More Work, Multiple Zoom Calls, New Podcast Setup 2:43:55

6 days ago2:43:55

2:43:55

Recorded on: Monday, June 09, 2025, 10:05 PM I had two Zoom calls today instead of five and got hired for a two-hour daily role with Dawson, adding to my existing work with Mina. Riley's setup is unconventional and lacks systems, which I noticed during our call. I reflected on needing structured notes, talked through adjusting my daily schedule, considered podcast software upgrades, and questioned stereotypes about tech people. I also ranted about gym crowds, financial recovery, my minimalist lifestyle, and how my values diverge from typical norms. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "I was going into debt using credit cards and guess what? It’s almost like it doesn’t fucking matter because I made it out." "Maybe I’m just not at that phase of life where I can have that freedom yet to just go to the gym whenever I want." "Everything that’s going on right now is because of my desire to just do shit and kind of do things differently." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "Obsessed with walrus nutting? I don’t know, dude." "Don’t be at the same gym I’m at when you’re doing that." "My coffee pot is hot, hot, hot. What’s up, Dr. Seuss?" My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI Today I felt proud but overwhelmed. I landed another gig which is exciting, but I can tell I need more structure and probably better systems if I’m going to manage all this. I’m grateful for the opportunities Mina opened up for me. I’m also clearly thinking long term—about how I’ll handle growth, money, and staying sane. A little insecure at times, but I’m working through it. I’m not faking anything. Just figuring it out as I go. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Had two Zoom calls, got hired by Dawson, recorded a podcast, edited over a phone number mistake, reviewed Riley’s systems, brainstormed workflow improvements, explored podcast software options, updated my income spreadsheet, vented about tech issues, reflected on gym crowding, and logged ideas for scheduling and self-discipline.

Recorded on: Sunday, June 08, 2025, 10:07 PM Episode Summary by AI I locked in four calls for tomorrow with potential clients or collaborators: Britzy, Akani, Dawson, and Riley. I also got a voice message from Trey who might bring me onto his team, which could increase income. I wrapped up a hike and swim day with Lexi and my little brother, looked at houses, and made progress on client system work for Mina. I proposed a faster solution for updating 180 client profiles into Notion by dividing work across six coaches. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "I actually felt like I was kind of living life today because I just did so many different things, so many good conversations, laughed a lot." "Everything else is just kind of icing on the cake. A lot of stuff I’m working on, it’s going to be fun to implement because it’s just extra sauce." "When shit happens, dude, it comes in waves. This is crazy." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "She just kissed my ass cheek. Waiter, all right?" "Dude, that’s a man right there. And then you’re five years older than them." "What the fuck is this? What’s going on?" My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m fired up. It feels like momentum is finally building. I’ve got calls lined up, maybe even another team I’ll join, and I’m seeing how this work could scale. Today was different—it actually felt like living. I laughed, connected, and still got things done. That balance felt good. The work ahead with Notion is going to be brutal, but I like the challenge. This is the first time in a while I’ve felt really in it . What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Went on a hike with Lexi, swam with my little brother, looked at houses for October move-in, finalized backend client systems, drafted a Notion proposal, confirmed multiple calls for tomorrow, played Trey’s voice message, and explored how to bulk import spreadsheet data into Notion.

Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "Momentum doesn’t always announce itself. Sometimes it just quietly stacks until it explodes." "Every opportunity isn’t created equal but they all count if you treat them like they matter." "Confidence doesn’t come from a result. It comes from proof you’re becoming the type of person who delivers." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "I ran faster than I’ve ever run and still had time to rant." "Six opportunities. Zero chill. One podcast episode." "If I had a whiteboard right now I’d be yelling at it." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI Today I felt electric.

596. Frustrations With Leadership, Rants & Venting, Spreadsheets 1:02:31

9 days ago1:02:31

1:02:31

Recorded on: Friday, June 06, 2025, 10:11 PM Episode Summary by AI I vented hard today about frustrations working under PT Dom, especially with leaderships lack of communication and unclear feedback on spreadsheets I built. Felt boxed into being the “spreadsheet guy” for his clients with no raise or clarity. Explored whether to keep doing this or go all-in on finding other businesses to help, especially like I do for Mina. Broke down my financials, future goals, frustration with leadership, sleep habits, and the desire to feel progress by building and coding real things. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI “I feel like I'm still working for the man, but Mina's way cool, so it's fine.” “If you're a dick, I'm good. Appreciate you. We'll talk later.” “It just all starts with me, and I'm just years away from anything happening. And I think I just have to come to terms with that again.” Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI “It’s just fucking tic-tac-toe, bro.” “The fuck are we doing? You just lay there with your eyes closed and your mouth open and go hhhhh for eight straight hours.” “Two thumb lengths above the mountains if you put your thumb up, you know, as a measurement?” My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m fed up. I'm trying to do good work, and all I’m getting back is vague criticism and no real direction. I’m annoyed, not crushed, but annoyed. I want to feel like I’m actually building something of value that matters and not just being used as a backend tool. I need some autonomy and appreciation, not just to be told it’s too complex. I’m not spiraling—I’m evaluating. And deep down, I know I need to recalibrate and pick my path again. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Vent about PT Dom leadership, defend my spreadsheet design, hide extra features to simplify it, post in group chat offering ops help, analyze financial situation, plan escape from PT Dom, consider going back to FedEx, calculate rent with Lexi, commit to waking up earlier, rant about sleep, finalize my next steps.

32:01

Recorded on: Thursday, June 05, 2025, 10:46 PM Episode Summary by AI I overhauled the onboarding and routing system in Notion, refining logic flows between client types, streamlining automations, and separating onboarding into its own space. I finished the Community Manager’s dashboard with milestone trackers and a clean interface and then tackled the much messier Blue Coach dashboard. I ranted about the chaos of linking multiple databases and trying to eliminate user error. Despite mental fatigue, I love building this. Financially, I mapped out debt payoff, savings, rent projections, and feel confident moving forward. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI “Trying to make it so when any client gets added to any spot ever, it automatically links everything else to that right then and there.” “That means I have from 10:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. to do whatever the fuck I want.” “I don’t care about October, January, December, June. I don’t give a fuck, dude. As long as it’s warm, we’re good.” Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI “Bob Smith is not in a fug, guys. Put him in a fucking fug.” “What code languageages are notion for notion formulas are…” “Wrong as fuck. It was Secret Service. It was the Gordon Ramsey Secret Service.” My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I feel completely fried from the sheer amount of mental load building out these systems, but I’m also proud of what I’ve created. It’s been chaotic, a lot of backtracking, but I’m finally seeing structure and progress. I want to wrap this up so I can breathe and shift focus again. I’m also feeling more grounded financially, which gives me peace. It’s nice knowing I’m in control and that everything I’m building might really pay off soon. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Built and redesigned multiple Notion dashboards, finalized community manager workflow, refined onboarding automations, watched Gordon Ramsay’s Secret Service, tracked financials, saved $140, paid $300 toward debt, projected October rent needs, and recalculated future financial runway.

Recorded on: Thursday, June 04, 2025, 11:59 PM Episode Summary by AI I ran a mile and a half nonstop for the first time in my life, finishing in 16:38 and breaking past my usual mental stop at one mile. I reflected on back pain from my two herniated discs, past misdiagnoses, and my refusal to let limitations define me. I vented about Notion formula struggles, eventually solving a frustrating monthly tracking issue with Claude. The episode ends with gratitude, sunburn jokes, and commitment to building a flawless system for Mina. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "I don't want to be a victim to my circumstances." "They lost weight because they believed." "If something happened to my lower back, I don't want to be like, 'Oh, well, I would have'—I want to overcome that." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "I'm probably the same thing as a sun glare to people who are driving by." "A bee, dude, went on my fucking forehead." "I'm gonna cannonball into the cement, aka see you later life." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today – Summarized by AI I felt proud as hell today. I broke a personal milestone with that run, even if the time wasn’t fast. It meant a lot because I usually doubt my back can handle this. I proved myself wrong. I was annoyed at how frustrating tech can be, especially when I’m trying to get it perfect. But I pushed through it. I’m tired, a little fried from the sun, but I'm proud. I’m building something that works and that’s exciting. What I Did Today – Summarized by AI Ran 1.5 miles nonstop, walked laps at the track, vented outside while podcasting, solved a Notion formula issue, worked on system design for Mina, planned coach dashboards, texted Lexi, planned a food stop, and wrapped up the episode. Got paid by PTDom. Spent the remainder of the day just working on MEFits business structure. So sick. Business Revenue Tracker (Since 12/20/24) Income Today: +$693 Total Income: $6,240…

Recorded on: Tuesday, June 03, 2025, 10:42 PM Episode Summary by AI I updated the podcast intro to include a voice memo from my future self to boost retention and clarity. I break down why past intros were accidentally deleted and how I fixed it this time. I reflect on wanting support and the balance between confidence and community. I rant about unread texts, unresponsive teammates, and gym staff stating the obvious. I also explore building a custom soundboard as a coding project and share updates on work, Notion dashboards, and receiving my first full paycheck under admin leave. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "Fully confident in my ability to do this myself without support. However, I would love as much support as I can get because that makes it much easier." "This is me being ignorant as shit... but I'd like to do that." "I'm going to obviously keep on recording shows until I get to wherever I'm trying to go." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "I took a shit. I got poop on my finger. Uh-oh." "Is the grass green? Is the sky blue?" "Cool, bro. Cool. I’ll go fuck myself." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I feel a mix of accomplishment and irritation. I'm proud of getting the intro fixed, learning more in Notion, and finally getting paid, but also frustrated with being ignored, not getting responses, and people stating the obvious. I crave support but still believe I can do this solo. I'm energized by the idea of building things like the soundboard and am trying to stay disciplined despite going to bed late. I’m documenting it all in real-time, even when it’s messy. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Woke up late, worked five hours in Notion for Mina, messaged shadow coaches, tried Make automations, briefly hit the gym, saw Lexi, tried fixing a drawer, filled gas, checked and confirmed admin leave paycheck, brainstormed soundboard project, and recorded this podcast.

35:23

Recorded on: Monday, June 02, 2025, 09:15 PM Episode Summary by AI I realized my average podcast listener only hears 1.45 episodes before leaving, which crushed me (it did not LOL), but reinforced the mission of documenting the journey no matter what. I reflected on being a six-figure earner temporarily until October, updated my financial spreadsheet, broke down debts to pay off, and confirmed that I don't need a job if I stick to current work hours. I also brainstormed how to build an AI-driven mega hub to connect and track every episode reference in my podcast. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "This is going to be one of the coolest stats that I can say. Like, hey, I recorded 621 episodes of a podcast and the average person listened to one and a half episodes then dipped. Ass" "I'm not making this for any other reason than to document the journey and to share where I'm at right now." "As long as I maintain the hours with Brian and Mina… it is 100% official. I do not have to get a job again." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "That’s a lot of unique people that said, ‘ass’." "This is a very professional way of saying, hey, don’t fucking bother me I’m going on vacation. God damn it." "Dude. Hold on, guys. I’m so sorry. I’m not sorry at all. This is my fucking podcast." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I felt discouraged seeing my retention stats but stayed grounded in why I started the podcast in the first place. I’m not chasing vanity metrics. I'm here to document everything, and that hasn’t changed. I had a breakthrough moment realizing I don’t need another job if I stick to the plan. There’s still doubt, still confusion, but also a weird comfort in knowing the math works. I’m just trying to keep going, and honestly, that’s enough right now. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Checked podcast retention stats, realized most listeners don’t return, updated and analyzed my financial spreadsheet, recalculated work hour requirements for Mina and Brian, confirmed I don’t need another job, brainstormed AI podcast organization system, shared thoughts on quitting FedEx and future debt payoff timeline.

11:15

Recorded on: Sunday, June 01, 2025, 11:14 PM Episode Summary by AI I talk about working on charts, formulas, and scripts for Brian, mostly building a static monthly comparison feature in a massive, slow spreadsheet. I vent about formula complexity and how Claude outperforms ChatGPT in certain formula tasks. I also reflect on reverse engineering AI-generated formulas to improve logic. Lexi and I spent 15 minutes looking for one puzzle piece before calling it quits. I calculated that I now technically earn six figures between Mina, Brian, and my main job, so it’s unofficial lol. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "It's a very rewarding feeling." (dumb) "I'm a six-figure earner now. That's the title of this show." "All I need to do to match that is to get... Dude, I'm a six-figure earner." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI “She just kissed my head, if you know what I mean.” “Swing, swinged, went down the slides. The slides fucked us up.” “This one here. Oh my hell.” My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I felt tired but productive. There was a mix of technical frustration and pride—pride in solving complex formula challenges, pride in using AI more intelligently, and especially pride in realizing I’ve crossed into six-figure territory. Even though I fell short on today’s financial and hourly targets, I felt optimistic, amused, and slightly amazed by how things are adding up. Ended the night playfully with Lexi, and honestly, I just want to keep this going. (YES) What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Worked on formula-heavy charts and scripts for Brian, tracked income and hours for both Mina and Brian, spent time at the park with Lexi, watched Lilo & Stitch, calculated projected annual income, updated Notion week/month views, hunted for a puzzle piece, recorded this show.

11:35

Recorded on: Saturday, May 31, 2025, 09:57 PM Episode Summary by AI I only worked for Mina today, about 4–5 hours, and didn’t touch Brian’s stuff aside from a 20-minute spreadsheet task. I spent most of the day figuring out how to make Notion automations unfuckwithable, especially with database links. I got a new display cable which made my monitor buttery smooth. Lexi came home, we had a funny moment on air, and I wrapped up after Aunt Amy’s retirement party. Also, got paid $480 from Mina for 16 hours. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "I'm just trying to make things, you know, unfuckwithable." "In the time that it took you to type this text out, you could have made it yourself." "It's like, I need you to fly to the moon or I need you to just, you know, grab the mail." Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "Why your hands wet?” Lexi: “Mind your business." "The fuck am I supposed to do with this?" "It's like, I need you to fly to the moon or I need you to just, you know, grab the mail. No in between." My Thoughts & Feelings for Today – Summarized by AI I felt torn today. On one hand, Lexi’s back and that makes everything better. On the other, I left money on the table by not working for Brian even though I had time. Not because I was lazy but because I’ve been obsessed with figuring out how to make the Notion systems bulletproof. I felt annoyed with lack of communication, especially from teammates. Still, I had fun, made some progress, and it’s nice to feel seen and paid even if I want more. (these summaries need to be reworked lmao.) What I Did Today – Summarized by AI Worked 4–5 hours for Mina, skipped work for Brian except 20 mins, tested new display cable, tried to automate Notion database linking, texted coaches for feedback, went to Aunt Amy’s retirement party, spent time with Lexi, and got paid $480 for 16 hours of work.

1:01:31

Recorded on: Friday, May 30, 2025, 11:00 PM Episode Summary by AI I had a packed day full of wins and tech headaches. The Zoom call with Mina was short but powerful. He gave great feedback and said I’ll be compensated fairly, possibly with a bonus? We discussed showcasing my system to others and hinted it could turn into serious income. I listed out 13 major projects I'm tackling, including a mega client database. Tech-wise, new monitors caused issues. DMV trip turned out unnecessary—I already had a real ID. Wrapped with optimism and more work to do tomorrow. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI "You’re not running their business. You’re helping them, which is really valuable, man." "Be the guy that sells pickaxes, shovels, candles—you name it." "The stuff you’re doing now, for sure, you’ll be able to build it out and this would make you a fuck ton of money." “There’s people who are gold diggers and there’s people who sell the pickaxes.” Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI "Takes a fat dump on my chest." "She’s obnoxious. Yeah, you don’t do that 100%." "I just thought that was so sick. This is awesome, bro." (???? stupid one all good) My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m proud of the momentum I’ve built. Mina’s recognition meant a lot, and even though I joked about the tech headaches and real ID confusion, I feel like I’m genuinely leveling up. The system I’m building is legit. I can feel how close I am to something big. At the same time, I’m a little annoyed I didn’t get more done for Brian today, but I’m still tracking, still building, still pushing forward. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Zoom call with Mina, brainstormed more major internal projects, tested and troubleshooted new 4K monitors, skipped work for Brian, figured out I already had a real ID so skipped DMV, listed monitors and chair on Facebook Marketplace, checked financial goals, planned hours to hit $1K payout, followed up with team members, and made Costa Vida run.

29:01

Recorded on: Thursday, May 29, 2025, 10:32 PM Episode Summary by AI I worked on charts and filtered visualizations for Brian’s project, finishing despite earlier frustration. Felt victorious figuring it out solo. After a ghosted deadline, feedback came today, I implemented changes, and sent it back—awaiting reply again. Recalculated my financial goal to $27K to account for expenses and PTDOM deductions. Talked workspace upgrades, like 4K monitors and a new chair, and ranted about Real ID DMV hell. Also planned better sleep, gym consistency, and daily structure. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI “Anything that drains you, dude? Just get that shit out of your life. 100%.” “If it improves quality of life, I think it's always a good investment.” “I knew I got it before I knew for sure that I got it.” Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI “Eat a bag of balls, all right? Gum balls, not testicles. You sick ass.” “Name it eggnog 25. I don't give a shit.” “Why do I have to turn around, walk one inch, use my arm, pull back the curtain, walk another inch... just to brush my teeth? I'll buy 2 tooth brushes.” My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I felt a mix of frustration and pride today. The charts were a pain, but when I nailed it, I knew I nailed it. I’m annoyed at inconsistent communication from everyone but whatever, I’ll keep pushing. I’m focused on refining everything—workspace, finances, routines. I feel good about where it’s all headed, but I know I’m still behind. Not panicked, just aware. I need more structure, more control. But deep down, I know I’m built for this. Damn dude how corny are these summaries. Deep down... I know... that I'm... built... for this. *sigh*. Stfu. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Worked 2 hours for Mina2, worked 3.5 hours for Brian, finalized and sent project updates, recalculated financial goal, updated tracking sheets, brainstormed monitor and chair upgrades, scheduled DMV appointment, skipped gym(LOL THANKS), tracked sleep patterns(no?), ranted about tutorials, discovered new music, had brief call with Mina.

Recorded on: Wednesday, May 28, 2025, 11:03 PM Episode Summary by AI I ranted about busting my ass to meet Brian’s deadline only to be ghosted after delivery. I talked about how GPT kept failing to generate a working Sheets formula, but Claude nailed it. I broke down my hours, earnings, and how I’m tracking progress toward a $23K goal by October. I also got real about the isolation I’ve felt lately. Then I detailed all 17+ custom Notion systems I’ve built for EmmyFit and laid out early ideas for my coding curriculum project. Notable Quotes From This Episode, by AI “Maybe the things you want the most are the things that you need the most, but that doesn't mean that they're enjoyable.” “All I truthfully want to do is what I’m doing, but it’s just a mental battle sometimes.” “If I can have somebody get that instant gratification of ‘Hey, I built this,’ what else can I build?” Funny, Out of Context Quotes, by AI “Gabe be blowing ass sometimes, dude.” “Set the alarm for when? I don’t want an alarm, dude.” “I feel like I’m on an island by myself. Who’s trying to voyage?” My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI I’m proud of what I built, but I’m annoyed, tired, and a little emotionally burnt. I did great work today, and the EmmyFit Notion system is insane. But the lack of response from everyone frustrates me. Claude outperformed GPT which both pissed me off and got me excited. I feel super isolated lately, like I’m grinding alone in a dark room while everyone else is living. Still, I want this. This is what I want. Even when it kinda sucks. What I Did Today - Summarized by AI Finished Brian’s project, clocked nearly 5 hours for PTDOM, 2.25 for MEFit, battled GPT to generate a Sheets formula, switched to Claude, tracked my earnings toward the $23K goal, reflected on feeling isolated, and documented 17+ custom Notion systems built for EmmyFit.

I uploaded yesterday’s show late, realized my top podcast isn’t episode one anymore, and clocked four hours split between Mina and Brian. Graduation made me reflect on the last decade. I’m working toward more coding hours and looking for modern JavaScript and HTML resources. Not sure if Duckett's books are outdated, but I want to learn then teach to deepen my understanding. Streak still alive on Mimo.
