So random idea and thought this morning on awakening this morning,,, perhaps the goal and the secret is to build! 
Build what?
So the first thought, is what should you build?
So most of us don’t work in constructing and construction, and building building buildings real buildings in the physical sense.
I had a random idea, now that I am the proud homeowner of an insanely huge lot, around 7000 ft.² in LA, and one of my biggest passions is the sunrise. I live for it.
Each and every day, when the sun rises, it gives me so much hope joy, freshness, anything and everything is possible with the sun!
However the issue is that, even though it like I’m kind of on top of the hill… I don’t have 100% access to the whole hill. Which means, I don’t get 100% of my beloved sun.
As a consequence, I suppose the other options are to build a two-story thing in the back or something, in order to gain more height and more access.
But I suppose more so, thinking the metaphorical sense, to build, is a very powerful idea.
Build what?
So why didn’t the thing that is tough is that for the most part most of us live in the digital realm the cyber realm. I guess in the past, the idea of creating some sort of technology startup was like rebuilding some sort of like metaphorical digital startup technology building?
But the big issue now is, I really don’t think startups are the future anymore. Perhaps the biggest upside of a startup was, and this is before we had AI… You kind of needed some sort of somebody with domain expertise, somebody who knew how to code, and also a master marketer.
But I think certainly with AI… And even though AI can’t do all the coding for you, it could certainly do a large portion.
And also, it also does seem that AI is the master marketer. 
Then where does that leave us flesh batteries?
Visionary.
To have a vision
So I read the transcript of the recent 2 1/2 hour podcast that Elon Musk had with Peter Diamandis, and Elon said something which was interesting is, the general idea of the future is, curiosity.
So, extrapolating this further, for myself, it’s more of like having a vision.
To be a visionary is not to be some sort of like god ordained individual,  but instead, to have some sort of idealized vision of the future.
That is, what do you desire to birth into the future?
For me?
For myself, I think it’s mostly brain software, thoughts –> thought mindsets,,, and also… thinking what we should strive for.
Therefore,,, it becomes more of a philosophical and also health physiological thing.
For me
So I think the core critical backbone of everything is like insanely supreme health. And then I suppose that the question is, what kind of lifestyle like for clothes or strategies can you pursue in order to maximize your health?
Then, for myself, something I’m very very interested in is design, design products design philosophy, design theory?
Also as of late, one of my big interests is regarding, philosophy around durability? This has to be the fact that, these workout shorts “tactical” tenthousand.cc shoers totally fell apart on me. I’m kind of shocked because I spent like $80 on these piece of crap, and there was all this fake ass marketing that it was good enough for the US military blah blah blah blah, but yesterday in the wash, the simple waistband, the stitching fell off, and now the whole thing is useless?
And frankly speaking I don’t care to have to message some underpaid Zen desk, support staff, and I don’t want to lug my ass to UPS to have to do some annoying return. And this is where I’m starting to think that the 100% lifetime warranty thing is kind of a scam because, the annoyance of having to find a printer to print your own return label, then finding the tedious time to go to a UPS store to do a return.
And this is where Amazon is still the goat, having the ability to do easy returns on Amazon is the killer app. There is literally no other online distributor or seller that makes it that easy to do a return.
And also, a suggestion to Amazon; don’t add more friction to make returns more difficult. In fact, the engineering should be ways to make returns easier.  Yeah yeah yeah, it’s a loss leader, but Amazon should be thinking in terms of customer loyalty for decades, rather than short term losses. 
And this is also where I suppose running some sort of company is interesting because once again, I think logically, especially if you want to create a company that changes the world, you don’t really need to be thinking about short term profits but, insanely long-term customer loyalty.
Profits of the future
So we are also living in an interesting time because, everyone is trying to build businesses, search for profits but, where is the source of future profits going to come from?
The first obvious one is bitcoin MSTR, strategy. THE reason is there’s already like trillions of dollars locked up in baby boomers gen x retirement accounts, checking accounts etc., all the wealth that was created pre-ai, or before AI. 
i’m also starting to think, that probably the two biggest inflection point is life before bitcoin, life after bitcoin… and then, life before AI and life after AI.
I’ll give you the example, I have this random idea after having my roof replaced, like some sort of Uber for day laborers, .. you know the random Latino guys are hanging outside of Home Depot, for it to be some sort of like bilingual English to Spanish app called “Trabajar”… which makes it easily accessible for you as an individual homeowner to get access to legit trained builders or workers or contractors to do work on your house?
Anyway anyways, I just inserted the idea into ChatGPT 2 pro Sora ..  and the video sizzle reel that it made me was mind blowing.
And I think the reason why this is kind of interesting to me is because, when you could visualize it, you can imagine it, and when you could imagine it, it is real. 
And then, it’s kind of like a short cut because when it’s already like pseudo real,… I didn’t suppose a big question is, how badly do you really care for it?
Like once again… Assuming that ChatGPT pro can program you anything in build you anything in this sort of product, service, business something… Or an idea… Then comes the ultimate test, do you really care 1,000,000,000,000% to actually execute on it?
