It’s Wednesday, June 10, 2026. We’ve all been there: you look at the clock, convince yourself you have "plenty of time" for one last thing, and end up sprinting frantically through a crowded terminal. Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on a painful, frustrating, and incredibly embarrassing mistake I made on our recent weekend trip to Madrid. It cost me $120, three hours of precious time, and a heavy dose of parental pride. We're diving into the psychological trap of "Time Optimism," the hidden anxiety of arriving early, and the strict reality of European train travel. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Wednesday, June 10, 2026. I just wrapped up an incredible week at an HR conference in Porto, Portugal, and the message from the corporate world is loud and clear: AI transformation is no longer a pilot project—it is the main event. But as organizations rush to scale productivity, a massive counter-trend is emerging. Today, we look at the critical role of human leadership in an automated world, the growing backlash against "AI slop," and a personal story about how a single, spontaneous coffee chat years ago turned into a lifelong friendship and an Airbnb co-living setup this week.

It’s Wednesday, June 10, 2026, and I am coming to you from a park right outside a stunning castle in the middle of Milan, Italy. Yesterday, I told you about a conference that didn't quite hit the mark, but today is all about the wins. I’m sharing how a little bit of "LinkedIn flirting"—otherwise known as public, professional appreciation—landed me a free, world-class Italian lunch, a phenomenal new network contact, an upcoming podcast guest, and potential business collaborations. Plus, I’m pulling back the curtain on my exact "Conference Capture" AI workflow that allows me to stay 100% present during keynotes. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Wednesday, June 10, 2026. I’m coming to you from a beautiful park in Milan, Italy, reflecting on a wild, mixed-bag of a trip. Over the last few days, I experienced the absolute peak of cycling freedom at Lake Como and the frustrating reality of a hyped-up international conference that didn’t quite deliver. Today, we’re talking about the "End-of-Life Regret" framework, taking calculated risks on new events, and how to find the silver lining when a business trip goes sideways. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Wednesday, June 10, 2026. If you’ve noticed a quiet feed for the last few weeks, it’s because I’ve been deep in a transitional period, reimagining the future of my business. Markets change, technologies evolve, and true career ownership means knowing when to pivot. Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on my business transition, why I shut down a community I ran for six years, how I’m turning Claude into my bluntest business consultant, and a fun personal milestone with my daughter in Madrid.

It’s Wednesday, May 13, 2026. I’m coming to you from a sun-drenched plaza in Barcelona after a morning of journaling, coffee, and a serendipitous run-in with a friend. Today, we’re talking about "Social Surface Area." Why does living in a walking city feel so different from living in a driving city? We explore the biological spark of the "unplanned encounter" and how to manufacture that feeling even if you’re stuck in suburban traffic. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Tuesday, May 13, 2026. Let’s get real for a second: life doesn’t always go according to the business plan. I’ve been feeling some frustrations lately—business isn't exactly where I want it to be. But today’s reminder is for me as much as it is for you: There are no "good" or "bad" events, only the perspectives we choose to wrap around them. We’re diving into the Stoic discipline of controlling the one thing that can’t be imprisoned: your mindset. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Friday in Barcelona, and what started as a social game of paddle (padel) on a rooftop court turned into a masterclass in how the ego can sabotage our own happiness. Today, I’m breaking down a heated altercation that happened between courts and why "standing your ground" often costs you far more than you realize. We’re looking at the literal "math of an argument" and how to recognize when your ego is about to overcharge you. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Wednesday, May 13, 2026. Today, I’m revisiting a topic that struck a chord with many of you: the razor-thin line between confidence and arrogance. Inspired by a recent entry in The Daily Stoic (April 7th), we explore why the most dangerous thing you can do for your career—and your happiness—is to stop being a student. We discuss Epictetus's warning against "arrogant opinion" and why changing your mind is actually a sign of elite leadership, not weakness. I hope you enjoy it!

It’s Tuesday, May 12, 2026. Yesterday, we talked about the practical, high-efficiency side of AI—how it saved me five hours of research in a single morning. Today, we’re zooming out. We are currently living through what many call the Fourth Industrial Revolution. While past technological leaps (like the steam engine and the automobile) destroyed old jobs only to create millions of unimaginable new ones, there is a growing debate: Is AI different? We’re exploring the "Horse Poop" analogy, the rise of AGI, and what it means for the future of human work. I hope you enjoy it!
