Suck at something this weekend

Most people are scared of doing things they are not good at. That's why I always think about Eleanor Roosevelt's advice to do one thing every day that scares you


🎷🎅🏻 This weekend I will be practicing Christmas tunes so I don't suck at the family Christmas party this year

I'm still bad. But every day I get a little better.


There's so much pressure in this world to be perfect. I support people loving what they do even if they suck at it and never plan to make money off of it.

Dare to suck. Have a great weekend, everybody

Coaching sales and building processes that break patterns and drive revenue 🎬

Holy crap Gemini. I am officially impressed.

I uploaded a 30 minute audio file of me practicing saxophone


You all know I'm not easy to impress when it comes to AI, but I was shocked by the feedback

✅ It ranked the songs by how well I played
🎼 Identified specific moments where tuning was an issue
🎷 Even analyzed my tone and gave me notes on what to do with my jaw to get a more velvety sound


If you create audio or video content, try uploading a file straight to Gemini and asking it for feedback

PS I'm also taking requests for Christmas sax jams so drop em if you got em

Text: Google Gemini suddenly became a good saxophone teacher

My hot take? AI hasn't changed sales very much 🤷‍♂️

Sure there's been lots of layoffs and hype for automation, but how has it actually changed the buying and selling experience?


Buyers
❌ Still don't trust salespeople
❌ Still can't get a straight answer without taking a meeting

Sellers
❌ Still have to do research because AI is unreliable
❌ Still have to work their asses off to build and maintain relationships because buyers hate being on the receiving end of automation


Sales is frustrating. Always has been. Always will be.

IMO learning the boring fundamentals and working your ass off is and will always be a safer bet than learning AI
