Get ahead of the Week 2 waiver wire with five fantasy football stashes who could gain value quickly. Lucas Wencl breaks down Antonio Williams, Mack Hollins, Demarcus Robinson, Demond Claiborne and Terrance Ferguson and the opportunities that could push each player into a bigger role. From Williams’ promising early usage with the Washington Commanders to Robinson’s increased opportunity in San Francisco and Claiborne’s upside in a thinning Minnesota Vikings backfield, these are the players worth adding before your league mates catch on. Plus, find out why Hollins could benefit from additional work in New England and why patience could still pay off with Ferguson in the Los Angeles Rams offense. Make the move now instead of fighting for them on next week’s waiver wire.

Ryan Wormeli is joined by Derek Brown and Pat Fitzmaurice to answer the biggest fantasy football questions across the NFL Week 2 slate. The crew opens with the Bills-Lions shootout and what Josh Allen, Dalton Kincaid, Amon-Ra St. Brown and James Cook showed before going matchup by matchup through the weekend. They break down Lamar Jackson’s outlook with Baltimore’s receiver injuries, which Bears pass catcher could break out, how high Aaron Jones should climb, and what to expect from Christian Watson, Baker Mayfield, Dallas Goedert, Parker Washington, Justin Herbert and other pivotal Week 2 options. Plus, how should fantasy managers approach Christian McCaffrey and the 49ers after their Australia trip? Kenneth Walker III or Jonathan Taylor on Sunday night? And can Matthew Stafford and the Rams bounce back? Get the key rankings, matchup analysis and lineup considerations you need for Week 2.

The National Security Hour with Jack Maxey – The machinery of power keeps grinding ahead while the country is told not to worry. That is the oldest trick in the book. If you want to weaken a republic, first numb the people who are supposed to defend it. We need citizens who can still tell the difference between a republic and a managed illusion. We need competence, not...

An hour of film notes, vibes, and fantasy talk, hitting Terrance Ferguson's usage, Love's early struggles, Antonio Winniams' real vs. box‑score impact, plus a rant on going full Auto‑Pilot for start/sits. We get into how football's return actually feels, why early‑season “I was right” victory laps are pointless, and close with a few trades. Join our discord: https://discord.gg/eTdBjyWQY

Two variants are offered — the Pro with a 39.8 kWh battery and 292 km WLTP range, and the ProMax with 53.0 kWh and 382 km — both with a 14.6-inch touchscreen, 8.8-inch cluster, Leap OS 4.0 Plus, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, and standard Level 2 driver assistance using 14 sensors and cameras across 21 functions.VOLVO FACELIFTS XC40, EX40 AND EC40Volvo has given the XC40, EX40 and EC40 their first major styling revision in nearly nine years, with all-new bodywork ahead of the A-pillars and revised 'Thor's Hammer' matrix LED headlights that Volvo says cut glare, debuting on the model year 2028 XC40 now that matrix LEDs are legal in the United States. Powertrains are unchanged, but the cars gain an 11.2-inch touchscreen with Google Gemini voice assistance, plus added cameras, radar and ultrasonic sensors supporting a smoother Pilot Assist with lane-change assist, a 3-D 360-degree camera view and an occupant alert for approaching cyclists before doors open.VOLKSWAGEN PLANS IQ.DRIVE UPDATE TO ID. BUZZVolkswagen will upgrade IQ.DRIVE functions on 2027 MEB vehicles, with the ID. Buzz receiving the fullest package including Road Experience Management, and Enhanced Travel Assist that can execute a driver-requested lane change above 45 mph using rear radar, waiting up to 12 seconds if traffic blocks the move while the driver stays responsible. The 2027 Buzz also reacts faster to posted speed-limit changes, notifying the driver before adjusting speed, slows near ramps and exits using navigation or turn-signal input, and uses crowd-sourced map data to supplement cameras where road markings are faded or weather is poor, bundled into In-Vehicle Premium with a one-year trial.NISSAN LEAF S IS CANADA'S LOWEST-PRICED EVThe 2027 Nissan Leaf S is Canada's cheapest electric vehicle at CA$34,998 (about US$25,250), nearly CA$2,000 below the Kia EV3 Light FWD and under CA$30,000 once the Electric Vehicle Affordability Program is applied. It uses a 53 kWh battery, a single 174 hp motor and up to 341 km of range, trailing the EV3 Light's 58.3 kWh, 201 hp and 356 km, and charging 10-80% in about 35 minutes against the Kia's 29, though both use an NACS port.JLR INVESTS £356 MILLION IN WOLVERHAMPTON EV PRODUCTIONJLR has spent £356m converting its Wolverhampton propulsion plant, renamed the Electric Propulsion Manufacturing Centre in 2024, to build electric drive units and assemble battery packs while continuing six-cylinder Ingenium engine production, giving it flexibility to flex output as the EV transition moves. The hall now making drive units for the Range Rover Electric, Range Rover GT, Jaguar Type 01 and smaller Defender 'Sport' previously built four-cylinder diesels on repurposed CNC machines, working to 80-micron tolerances against roughly 120 for combustion engines, with cells currently sourced from AESC in China and due to switch next year to Tata's Agratas plant in Somerset.EVGO OPENS 20-PLUG LOS ANGELES FAST-CHARGING STATIONEVgo has opened what it calls the largest non-Tesla fast-charging station in the City of Los Angeles, a 10-stall, 20-plug site on S Robertson Blvd in Mid-City just off the Santa Monica Freeway. The site has two 100 kW stalls, three 200 kW and five 350 kW, with 18 CCS cables capable of up to 350 kW and two CHAdeMO ports at up to 100 kW that keep older EVs served, though there are no NACS cables and NACS vehicles must use adapters.SKODA APPROVES NEW KAROQ FOR 2027 OR 2028Skoda chief executive Klaus Zellmer has approved a second-generation Karoq for launch in 2027 or 2028 on the Volkswagen Group MQB platform, reversing a plan under which the electric Elroq — itself a late addition to the range and now Europe's second best-selling electric car — was to have taken the Karoq's place. Zellmer said powertrains will be very comparable to the Kodiaq's and pointed to strong plug-in hybrid demand and a 100 km-plus electric range as ideal for the model, though a PHEV remains possible rather than confirmed.PENNDOT OPENS $11 MILLION CHARGER FUNDING ROUNDPennDOT has opened an $11 million round for EV charging infrastructure across 26 central Pennsylvania counties, with publicly accessible sites able to apply until 12 March 2027 under the third phase of the state's federally backed Community Charging scheme, which allocated $100 million in NEVI money from February to extend charging beyond Alternative Fuel Corridors. Local transportation planning agencies, not PennDOT, will set location priorities; the state says 50 NEVI-funded hubs have opened with 41 more planned or under construction, delivering over 146,000 charging sessions since December 2023 and avoiding more than 3,700 tonnes of CO2.TESLA CEO PROMOTES VIDEO OF DRIVER SAYING FSD IS 'EYES OFF'Elon Musk endorsed, with a heart emoji, a clip of Larry, a 98-year-old Model Y owner in Farmington, New Mexico, who says of FSD (Supervised) that he did not have to look at an intersection and does not want to, directly contradicting Tesla's disclaimer that the feature requires active driver supervision and does not make the car autonomous. The framing matters because Tesla's defence in Autopilot and FSD crash litigation rests on driver responsibility — a Florida jury already returned a $243 million judgment against the company, with up to $14.5 billion at stake across roughly two dozen cases — even as its lawyers have separately argued, successfully, that Musk's public statements should not be taken at face value.

Download your free Painter Growth training here: https://learn.paintergrowth.comIf you're new here, my name is Mike Gore-Hickman. I'm the founder of Painter Growth, a coaching company that helps painting contractors build real businesses instead of just running jobs.We've worked with over 1,500 painting contractors. Our clients range from guys doing $300K a year to teams pushing past $5M. Our coaches are real painting business owners who built seven-figure companies themselves. Not theory guys.Here's how I got here.Early 20s: Running my own painting business. Couldn't close jobs. Underbidding everything. Painters showed up stoned. Spilled paint on driveways. Painted houses the wrong color. I fell off a ladder. Ended my first year with a $20,000 tax bill I couldn't pay.Still early 20s: Almost quit. Didn't. Got obsessed with systems, sales, and getting help. I hired my first business coach, fixed the chaos & hit over $200K a month in sales before I turned 24.Mid-20s: Followed my girlfriend (now wife) to a new city. Shut the painting business down. Took a job in SaaS. Spent five years helping grow a software company from scratch to nearly $10M a year. That's where I learned how to build and scale an online business.During COVID: My two worlds collided. Running a painting business plus scaling software companies. I launched a side hustle that pulled both together. It became Painter Growth.October 2021: Launched with an MVP and $10 a day in Facebook ads. No money. No clients. No connections.End of 2021: Signed my first 10 clients. Eight got massive results. That was all the proof I needed.Late 2022: Brought on Jesse, my partner and CFO. Hired our first coach and first VA. Reinvested everything back into the business.2023 and beyond: Built a team of nearly 50, including seven-figure painting business owners coaching full time.We became an official Sherwin-Williams partner and we're the exclusive coaching program referred by them.We we're named PCA 2026 Partner of the Year.You don't need to be a good painter to build a great painting business. You need to be a good business owner who hires good painters. Most contractors never make that switch. We help them make it.What I'm focused on right now: AI and systems. We're building AI-powered tools inside Painter Growth, including a bookkeeping assistant and a proposal generator. The contractors who figure this out early are going to pull ahead.I'm still building. Still figuring things out. But I'm doing it alongside 1,500 contractors who are all in the middle of their own fight to build something real.If you're in that fight, you're in the right place.Never quit,MikeGet a FREE Painting Business Growth Session.

Most of us move through the world on autopilot — not because we are incapable of noticing, but because we have stopped choosing to. We walk past the bee covered in pollen, the walking stick on a wooden bench, the osprey motionless in a tree above the path we almost took in the other direction. We are present in body but absent in attention, and in that absence, we miss the evidence of God's glory that Psalm 19 declares the heavens themselves cannot stop proclaiming. Becoming a noticer is not a personality trait reserved for the naturally observant. It is a decision — a deliberate, intentional slowing down to see what has always been there, waiting to be seen. A bee on a flower. The intricate architecture of a dandelion seed head before it is blown apart. The line of sight of a hawk fixed on something in the creek below. These are not small things. They are windows into the character of a Creator who designed every detail with intention and care, and who placed us in the middle of His creation to experience it fully rather than sleepwalk through it. Noticing is gratitude in action. It is a form of worship that requires no special equipment — only the willingness to slow down, engage the senses, and look at the same old thing with new eyes. A life lived with that kind of attentiveness is a life drawn consistently and almost involuntarily closer to God, because every genuine encounter with His creation points back to Him. Today's Bible Verse "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands."— Psalm 19:1, NIV Ponder Today The whole earth is full of God's glory — but we have to choose to notice it. Creation does not stop declaring His majesty when we are not paying attention. We simply miss what was always there, waiting for eyes that are willing to slow down and see. A life of noticing is a life of gratitude in action. Observing the world around us with intentionality and wonder is not a hobby for the naturally curious. It is a spiritual practice available to every believer who chooses to engage it. Autopilot is the enemy of abundance. Christ came to give life abundantly (John 10:10), and abundant life is lived in the present tense — participating, observing, engaging. Sleepwalking through creation is a kind of apathy that robs us of what God has placed before us. Noticing sharpens more than observation — it sharpens the soul. Every genuine encounter with the details of creation is an encounter with the Creator who designed those details. The more we notice, the closer we are drawn to Him. Look at the same old thing with new eyes. A dandelion puff ball, a patch of sunlight on the floor, birdsong on the way to the car — these are not interruptions to the important things. They are the important things, if we have eyes to see them. A Prayer for You Today God of Creation, we join with the chorus in heaven and cry, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of His glory." We are grateful for Your majesty all around us. May we have eyes to see and ears to hear. Our hearts are full of awe. May we increasingly notice the gifts of creation around us as we traverse this life of abundance You have blessed us with. With grateful hearts we pray, Amen. Want More?

On this episode of The Marvin Francois Show, Marvin sits down with Coach Cassie, founder of Freedom Digital Academy and author of $15 to Freedom, who turned a hotel-room rock bottom into an eight-figure digital income empire. Cassie shares the raw story of going from eviction and suicidal despair to a $15 sale that became an $86,000 month just three months later, and breaks down the mindset shift that made it possible. She unpacks her frameworks for finding a sellable skill, her Triple O content method for turning followers into buyers, and how she built and scaled over 20 communities using recurring revenue instead of one-off sales. The conversation also covers AI's role in replacing her team, why she prioritizes low-ticket offers and organic content over ads, and the real sacrifices behind the success most people never see.

Episode 248Dr. Jessica Rimmer is the CEO of Solomon Strategic Advisors, an executive coach, a keynote speaker, and the author of The Purpose Formula: Learn to be Fully Alive. She is also the co-director of 4word OKC, the faith and work community for women in Oklahoma City that I have come to love, and where I get to speak on September 8.We talk about purpose anxiety, that question so many of us carry around: why am I here, and does it even matter? Jessica walks through the three elements of her purpose formula, design, desires, and disappointments, and why comparing yourself to other women turns design features into design flaws. She explains the Japanese repair art of kintsugi and how the hardest seasons of our lives become the strongest, most useful parts of our purpose. She answers my most asked question, what is the first step for a woman who has no idea what her purpose is, and she tells the story of a stranger at a snowy-day event whose life changed when he heard that purpose can be ordinary.We also talk about whether your purpose changes over time, how Jana Gridley built 4word OKC to 130 women a month, and a rapid fire with a dream Jessica just took the first step toward.Find Jessica at solomonsa.com and on Instagram at @jlrimmer.

“In Jesus' name” is more than a phrase we use to close our prayers. Jesus is our access to the Father, and praying in His name means bringing our requests into alignment with His character, purposes, and will.In Week 6 of Discernment Matters, we learn how to take our prayer lives off autopilot by seeking God's will, trusting Him with our true needs, and asking for what will bring Him the greatest glory.

Autopilot is boring. Learn how to reframe the toughest blows to grow the most. #ThePitch #INICIVOX #VirtualMentorship

A federal judge tells the Pentagon its Anthropic ban was “illegal and baseless” after Anthropic refused to remove safeguards that would allow Claude to be used for mass surveillance and autonomous weapons. Meanwhile, Sony and Warner are suing Anthropic over allegedly scraping and torrenting copyrighted music to train Claude, while a separate lawsuit accuses xAI of using child sexual abuse material in Grok training. Because nothing says “revolutionary technology” quite like a growing stack of lawsuits and federal judges.Elsewhere in the dystopian workplace, employees are increasingly fed up with AI, communities are pushing back against data centers, and one AI startup is fleeing that backlash for Saudi Arabia. Google's AI shopping mode is also accused of recommending products that cost significantly more than traditional search results, while Waymo and Zoox rack up injuries among test drivers. Tesla's Autopilot is implicated in another fatal crash, and FSD apparently still has a complicated relationship with freight trains. In the prediction-market casino, a federal appeals court sides with Nevada against Kalshi, while George Santos earns the platform's first lifetime ban for allegedly manipulating a market. And Meta's AI glasses are facing another privacy lawsuit, this time from the people who never bought the glasses but may have been recorded by them anyway.Plus, the new Twitter is back from the dead, complete with a $20 admission fee and an AI fact-checker named Vera; Sony would like you to understand that buying a digital game means you don't actually own the damn thing; Siri on the Apple Watch moves at approximately the speed of continental drift; JBL makes Wi-Fi speakers and we have Star Trek, Ted Lasso, Silo, Spaceballs, Wicked, The Traitors, The Gentlemen, and more.

In this episode, we explore the subtle dangers of drifting through our routines on autopilot—even when we feel present and focused. After an immersive experience inside a maximum-security prison where distractions were stripped away, we reflect on the moments in life and leadership when attention is our most valuable currency. A near miss at the airport—ironically due to being unplugged and undistracted—sparks a deeper look at how easily critical details slip through the cracks when we trust our routines more than our awareness.We unpack specific areas where autopilot often hides in our creative and leadership work: our craft, calendar, relationships, commitments, worldview, and daily rhythms. This episode challenges us to disrupt comfortable patterns and purposefully introduce friction, in order to foster real presence and creative breakthrough.Five Key LearningsAutopilot Feels Like Competence—Until It Isn't. We can go through the motions perfectly and still miss crucial steps, simply because we're following routine, not engaging consciously.Some Missed Moments Aren't Reversible. Unlike a missed exit or an ignored notification, real opportunities—whether creative ideas or key conversations—may only come once.Comfort Can Make Us Lazy Observers. Familiarity with our teams, habits, or content feeds can lull us into leading outdated versions of reality, missing potential or growth.Interruption Is Sometimes the Only Solution. Deliberately changing our pace, asking different questions, or doing tasks in a new way can wake us up to what routine has dulled.Attention Is the Most Limited Resource. Especially in environments stripped of distraction, we realize just how powerful and rare undivided attention is—for ourselves and for others.Learn more about speaking and workshops at ToddHenry.com/speakingFind Todd Henry's books at ToddHenry.com/booksGet full interviews and bonus content for free!

It's a skill and it might be the missing piece between who you've been and who you're becoming.In Episode 1 of Season 3 of The School of Ownership, I break down what discernment actually is, why it's essential for self-trust and self-leadership, and how it helps us interrupt the patterns that keep us living on autopilot.Because you don't create a new life by doing more.You create it by choosing differently.And that requires the ability to pause long enough to ask:Is this aligned with the version of me I say I want to be?In this episode, we talk about:• What discernment actually means (and why most people skip it)• The difference between reacting and consciously responding• How to interrupt old patterns in real time• Why growth requires you to think, choose, and show up differently• The role discernment plays in self-trust and self-leadershipIf you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle or wondering why you keep making choices you know aren't aligned with who you want to become, this episode is for you.This is where you stop outsourcing your power and start owning your choices.

SummaryWhat if you didn't need more willpower to control your cravings?In this episode, Chase Smith and Chris Bealhen break down what really happens between having a craving and deciding to eat. They explain why slowing down during that small window can help you make a choice instead of reacting on autopilot. Chase and Chris cover four different types of cravings: physical hunger, habitual cravings, emotional cravings, and cravings caused by eating too little or restricting foods. They explain why knowing what type of craving you have can help you figure out what your body actually needs.They also walk through the Zen 10 technique, a simple strategy that gives you 10 minutes between a craving and your decision. You'll learn how to pause, get away from the food, distract yourself, ask better questions, and then decide what you actually want to do.Most importantly, using Zen 10 does not mean you can't eat the food. Even if you still choose to eat it, creating a pause and making a more mindful choice is progress.Chase and Chris also explain why evening cravings may actually start much earlier in your day, how eating too little can make cravings stronger, why emotional eating may require deeper work, and how changing your normal routines can help break old habits.The goal isn't to never have another craving. The goal is to create more space between the craving and your response so you can make the choice instead of letting the craving make it for you.Chapters(00:00) What Happens Between a Craving and a Decision?(03:01) The 4 Different Types of Cravings(04:14) Habitual Cravings and Eating on Autopilot(06:27) Emotional Eating and What Food Is Doing for You(07:54) How Restriction Can Make Cravings Worse(10:37) Why Cravings Feel So Urgent(13:54) The Zen 10 Technique(14:22) Step 1: Pause and Name the Craving(16:11) Step 2: Get Away From the Food(16:43) Step 3: Distract Yourself for 10 Minutes(17:41) Step 4: Make a Conscious Decision(19:27) When You Need More Than 10 Minutes(21:49) Questions to Ask Yourself During a Craving(24:26) Getting to the Root of Emotional Eating(27:59) How to Break Habitual Cravings(30:50) Your Evening Cravings May Start Earlier in the Day(33:07) Identify the Emotion Behind the Craving(34:33) Common Mistakes With the Zen 10 Technique(35:54) It's Normal to Want Foods That Taste Good(37:22) Eating the Food Does Not Mean You Failed(39:57) What Progress With Cravings Actually Looks Like(40:56) Creating Space Between the Urge and Your Response(41:55) Rewriting Your NormalSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

BREAKING: Around the time this episode goes live, TurboTenant announced its acquisition of TenantCloud, one of the direct competitors mentioned in this episode. TenantCloud CEO Mark DeHaan called it building "the platform that will help define the next generation of property management." Read more here. TurboTenant has over a million landlords on its platform, and property managers barely register on their radar. Why? Because they went all-in on the self-managing landlord instead of trying to serve everyone.

I got myself in a little pickle this week — three presentations, three days in a row. And the one I'm most fired up about is tomorrow's.Here's why: the number one objection I get when I start talking about automating your client experience is that you don't want it to feel automated for your clients. So in this episode I'm walking through the three kinds of systems you can build and why you get to decide at every single stage of your client experience how much automation and how much personalization belongs there. It's not all or nothing.If you want the actual how, that's what I'm covering in Human by Design. Free training, and I'm announcing a 48-hour bonus you'll only hear about if you're registered.

Somebody out there remembers exactly how they felt in your presence today. That's the imprint you left, whether you meant to or not.In this episode of The Inner Edge, executive coach Janet Ioli unpacks the second of seven leadership traps: the autopilot trap. She opens with a question most leaders get wrong: presence or competence, and argues that presence isn't a soft skill. It's the thing doing the real work.Janet grounds this in two people from her own past, both of whom shaped her in a matter of seconds without holding any formal leadership role in her life. One left her feeling capable for decades. The other made her feel small enough to walk away from a school entirely.This is the third episode in an eight-part series on the seven leadership traps, based on Janet's upcoming book, Escape the Traps (releasing October 2026).Chapters:00:00:00 Presence vs Competence: Which Wins? 00:01:19 Two Moments That Shaped Janet 00:04:22 The Excuses Leaders Tell Themselves 00:07:47 Why Leaders Default to Autopilot 00:10:03 The Mirror Question and Self-Audit 00:12:16 Next Episode: Trap ThreeRead the first chapter of Escape The Traps (available October 2026): https://mailchi.mp/5d2dbf42009c/escape-the-traps-chapterWhich trap is running you?

Download your free Painter Growth training here: https://learn.paintergrowth.com/If you're new here, I'm Mike, founder of Painter Growth. We coach painting contractors on how to build a real business, not just run jobs. We've worked with over 1,500 contractors, from $300K solo guys to $5M teams, and our coaches are all painting business owners who built seven-figure companies themselves.Quick version of how I got here. In my early 20s I was running my own painting business and it was a mess. Underbid jobs, painters showing up stoned, spilled paint on driveways, wrong colors on a house, I even fell off a ladder. Ended the year with a $20K tax bill I couldn't pay.Almost quit. Didn't. Got obsessed with systems and sales instead, hired a coach, and hit $200K a month before I turned 24.Then I moved cities for my now-wife, shut the painting business down, and spent five years helping grow a SaaS company to almost $10M a year. That's where I learned the online business side of things.During COVID those two worlds smashed together and Painter Growth was born. Launched in Oct 2021 with $10 a day in Facebook ads and no clients. Signed 10 clients by the end of that year, 8 of them got huge results, and that was all the proof I needed.Since then we've brought on my partner Jesse, built a team of almost 50, became an official Sherwin-Williams coaching partner, and got named PCA 2026 Partner of the Year.You don't have to be a great painter to build a great painting business. You have to be a great business owner who hires great painters. That's the switch we help people make.Right now I'm heads down on AI, building tools inside Painter Growth like a bookkeeping assistant and a proposal generator. Contractors who get ahead of this are going to win big.Still figuring it out, still building, right alongside 1,500 contractors doing the same thing.Never quit,MikeGet a FREE Painting Business Growth Session.

You don't lose your life all at once.You lose it one unchecked default at a time.Most capable men aren't failing because they lack ambition, talent, or potential.They're drifting.They're winning at work but losing control of their habits. They're taking care of everyone else while neglecting themselves. They're busy every day—but no longer certain that the life they're building is actually the life they want.And the dangerous part?Success can hide drift.In this episode, I break down why high-performing men drift and how to stop living on autopilot and start living by design.We'll unpack:Default vs. Design — why your life will default to whatever you fail to intentionally designThe Self-Leadership Ladder — moving from Default → Desperation → Desire → Discipline → DesignWhy outward success can mask inward inconsistencyThe hidden cost of repeatedly breaking promises to yourselfHow to build a Daily Battle Rhythm that turns your priorities into standardsThis isn't about finding more motivation.It's about becoming the man who doesn't need to negotiate with himself every morning.Because your calendar is building something.Your habits are building something.Your standards are building something.The question is: Are they building the man you actually want to become?If you're tired of starting over, falling off, and rebuilding alone, Built Not Born is about developing the structure, standards, brotherhood, and accountability required to stop drifting and start living by design.Stop drifting.

Scott sits with Christian, founder of Autopilot, about his extensive study on Amazon's AI shopping assistant (Alexa / Rufus) and how generative recommendations are fundamentally changing how products get discovered on and off Amazon. Christian explains that AI-driven shopping isn't just a replica of traditional search results, it also represents a distinct "third shelf" alongside organic search and paid advertising. Through a study analyzing over 110,000 search listings and 13,000+ Alexa recommendations, Christian discovered that 64% of Alexa's suggestions actually fall outside the top 10 organic search results. While top organic spots hold an advantage for the primary recommendation, deeper AI suggestions heavily favor long-tail products backed by strong star ratings (4+ stars), high sales velocity, and concise titles optimized for AI truncation. Furthermore, running PPC ads offers only a tiny chance of forcing an AI recommendation if the listing lacks strong underlying signals. The big takeaway is that AI discoverability operates as a holistic 360-degree ecosystem. Off-Amazon content on target sites, D2C stores, and deal forums heavily feeds engines like ChatGPT and Google AI. To win in the long run, brands must optimize their data infrastructure and create "agent-friendly" D2C content that AI bots can crawl, validate, and convert into citations and recommendations.

Get on the waitlist for Income on Autopilot

“‘These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover'” (Mark 16:17-18).

Chris Josephs is the co-founder of Autopilot, a fintech platform that lets everyday investors automatically follow the portfolios and strategies of other investors. Before building Autopilot, Chris learned entrepreneurship by flipping sneakers as a teenager and helping grow his family's custom sports compression business. In this episode, he explains how a simple idea to track Nancy Pelosi's stock trades became a viral social media phenomenon with millions of followers, how he used content and distribution to grow Autopilot, and why he believes AI-powered investing could be the next major evolution in retail investing. On this episode we talk about: How Chris made his first money flipping sneakers as a teenager The entrepreneurial lessons he learned from his immigrant parents and family business Why Chris left a finance career to build a business and how living in Bali taught him to make money online How the Nancy Pelosi stock tracker went viral and drove massive growth for Autopilot Why storytelling and distribution can be just as important as the product itself The rise of AI-powered investing and letting AI strategies automatically trade stocks Why Chris believes everyday investors can benefit from following experienced investors rather than trying to pick stocks themselves How massive companies like Amazon and Meta can use their scale and capital to make long-term bets on AI and robotics Top 3 Takeaways Distribution can make an ordinary product extraordinary. Chris explains how Autopilot existed alongside other automated and mirror-trading platforms, but the unique Nancy Pelosi story gave the company a memorable hook that helped it spread organically. You don't have to do everything yourself. Rather than trying to compete with professional investors, hedge funds, quants, and AI systems, everyday investors may benefit from finding people with better expertise and automatically following their strategies. AI is changing the way people invest. Autopilot is increasingly focused on AI-powered strategies that allow investors to follow portfolios built using models such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok. Notable Quotes "There's never been the Nancy Pelosi stock tracker." "The growth and the distribution is more important than, you know, the product." "We shouldn't guess what stocks to buy. We should go to a couple people on Autopilot, find someone good and let them do it for you."

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My Guest: Jack Raines is a writer and investor. At 24, he quit his corporate finance job at UPS, bought a one-way ticket to Barcelona, and spent the next year traveling through 25 countries while writing a newsletter that grew to hundreds of thousands of readers. He went on to earn an MBA from Columbia, help build Sherwood News at Robinhood, and join the venture capital firm Slow Ventures, where he invests in creators. His first book, Young Money: A Field Guide to Finding Wealth and Purpose in Your Twenties, is out now. Key Learnings Jack's Grandma Ruth took him to Africa when he was 11. She was in her late 60s. She had the money. She said: "I can spend it on you now or leave it to you when I'm dead. This is better." Money has no value until you exchange it for something. We need to decide what we want that to be. Every year of your 20s is worth $10 million. (Nikita Bier) You'll never have this window of flexibility again. Say yes to interesting experiences in your 20s. Your income is going to climb exponentially anyway. Don't save $500 at the cost of a memory. Move to where the action is. Jack moved to New York for business school. Then San Francisco for a job. Then back to New York. High slope of learning. High slope of contact with good people. Network amplifies ability. It doesn't create it. A million times zero is still zero. A million times two is two million. The only real risk is not doing anything. Every opportunity in life comes through a person. The best networking tool is doing great work. How did Gracie Abrams open for Taylor Swift on the Eras Tour? She wrote great music. Taylor noticed. Taylor called. In your 20s, potential is valued at a premium. In your 30s and beyond, proof of work matters more. Experimenting when you are young speed-runs the learning curve. You develop the skill of taking shots. That skill compounds.  It's much harder to start being risk-on at 35 if you weren't risk-on at 25. Personal finance is simple. Spend less than you make. Build a six-month emergency fund. Take the 401(k) match. Contribute to your IRA. Don't gamble on individual stocks. Stay invested. Stay employed. Don't go into credit card debt. Don't get divorced. User error interrupts compounding more than anything else. Set up the boring foundation. Then stop touching it. Most retirees never touch the principal. (Nick Maggiulli) They stack money out of fear, then die with more than they started with. Daniel Kahneman on loss aversion: the pain of losing $100 is twice as strong as the joy of gaining $100. That's why people over-save. Your burn rate at 70 is way lower than at 45. No kids at home. No tuition. Less energy to do stuff. Plan accordingly. Bill Perkins' Die with Zero philosophy... A useful insight was in the first chapter: his best friend took a payday loan at 23 to backpack Europe for three months. Same career trajectory as Bill. Just way more fun at 24. People don't want to think about their mortality. So they focus on making the number go up. If you actually internalized that you're going to die, you'd be more intentional about your time and money. Jack's champagne moment a year from now: He sells a ton of copies of it. And it's still relevant. Reflection Questions Where are you spending your best years earning money you'll never actually enjoy? What would change if you accepted that your peak-energy window is closing? Where are you standing still because the risk of moving feels bigger than the risk of staying? What does the only real risk (not doing anything) look like in your life right now? What is the great work you could do that would make the right person notice you?  More Learning #539: Jack Raines - Playing Infinite Games, Living Life Backwards & Building Your Platform #548: Nick Maggiulli - The Power of Compounding #373: Bill Perkins - How To Get All You Can From Your Money & Your Life Podcast Chapters 00:00 The Price of Becoming - Pre-Order Now!  01:38 Meet Jack Raines  03:27 Grandma Ruth Took Him to Africa When He Was 11  08:04 Why Every Year of Your 20s Is Worth $10 Million  12:12 Quitting UPS at 24 for a One-Way Ticket to Barcelona  15:10 How to Increase Your Surface Area for Luck  20:00 Where You Live Is Who You Become  22:00 Why Memories Compound Faster Than Money  26:23 The Financial Stability Basics Nobody Wants to Hear  29:00 Get the Boring Stuff on Autopilot  31:15 Why Retirees Never Touch the Principal  34:02 The Bad Trade of Saving During Your Best Years  37:36 The Bill Perkins Die With Zero Debate  39:15 Experimentation, Agency, and the Only Real Risk  42:53 The Best Networking Tool in the World: Do Great Work  44:10 The Champagne Question: Making the Book Matter a Year From Now  45:53 EOPC
