7 Bullets On What I'm Doing Now

[Last updated: January 20th, 2024]

  1. Focusing on continuously improving my health & fitness. My primary focuses right now are high-intensity bodybuilding training, yoga & pilates for flexibility and core strengthening, and doing whatever I can to look good and feel good all the time. Later this year I plan on immersing myself in the world of combat training: specifically boxing & jiu-jitsu.
  2. Writing on Twitter, LinkedIn, and this blog. I'm currently writing 365 days straight of Atomic Essay and publishing them on Twitter and LinkedIn. Then, once per week I'm expanding one of those Atomic Essays into a post on this blog.
  3. Building the Premium Ghostwriting Academy. This is the business receiving my full attention at the moment, helping freelancers learn the skills to land high-ticket ghostwriting clients and sell productized writing services like Educational Email Courses.
  4. Scaling the Write With AI newsletter. With over 20,000 readers and 1,200 paying subscribers, WWAI is the leading paid newsletter on how to turn ChatGPT and other AI platforms into your own personal Digital Writing Assistant.
  5. Building Ship 30 for 30. With over 10,000 alumni students, Ship 30 for 30 is the internet's premier community-powered program to help beginners start writing online.
  6. Building Typeshare. This is the all-in-one writing platform with everything you need to start writing online—templates, hosting, analytics, and education.
  7. Recording the Espresso Hour podcast. Every week Nicolas Cole and I share recaps, lessons, and realizations from our journey writing & scaling writing-based internet businesses.
  8. Learning the craft of making YouTube videos. I make occasional YouTube videos that serve as deeper dives into my writing. At the moment, this channel serves as a way for me to improve my skills speaking to a camera.
  9. Living in Miami, Florida. I moved to Miami in June of 2022 and have enjoyed it quite a bit. The sunshine, the beach, the energy, the people, I plan on being here for through May of 2024 before I head to Europe to explore for the summer. Then, who knows where I'll end up.

  1. Focusing on continuously improving my health & fitness. Running, lifting, yoga, walking, sleep, nutrition, mindfulness, mindset, & sunlight—right now I'm focused on building a foundation of healthy habits and behaviors that will last me a lifetime.
  2. Going 24 months without alcohol. I went all of 2022 without alcohol and had the biggest year of growth of my life because of it. I'm continuing this in 2023 and plan on writing more about it.
  3. Writing on Twitter, LinkedIn, and this blog. I'm currently writing 365 days straight of Atomic Essay and publishing them on Twitter and LinkedIn. Then, once per week I'm expanding one of those Atomic Essays into a post on this blog.
