“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.”

🤝 A Team Overseas
Kevin Galang started as software dev but recently took the leap and founded A Team Overseas, a boutique agency that specializes in connecting seed-stage founders and bootstrappers with amazing EAs.
If you're looking for a low risk way to get a great remote executive assistant, give it a try.
(A Team Overseas sponsored this issue of Business Brainstorms.)
☝️ AI Friends
I do believe AI “friends” will become a big thing.
Humans often act irrationally, self-sabotage, and commit logical fallacies.
Having someone observe all of your behaviours and then regularly nudge you in the right direction or call you out on your bullshit behaviour will have a massive, positive impact on humanity.
Privacy concerns will be overcome with encrypted, local-only models.
↗️ Expand
One of the most powerful self-reflection questions is: "Am I expanding or contracting?”.
By default humans have a tendency to contract but a good life is one of continuous expansion.
This is an area where imo technology could do a lot more to nudge people in the right direction.
🪄 Rebrand Woo-Woo
Sign me up for ecstatic dance without the woo please.
Oh wait, isn’t that just a daytime rave?
↕️ Invert Zero to One
Once more the opposite of a good idea is also a good idea.
Zero to one might be a good framework for some people.
But most people are better off doing the exact opposite.
End Note
As always, if you’re enjoying this brainstorm, I’d love it if you shared it with a friend or two. You can send them here to sign up.
