Today's witness is from my friend Bruce. Bruce reached out to me randomly back in November. He found my podcast and wanted to send in his testimony for witness wednesday. His testimony was about how he went to a healing service and regained his sight and then lost it again when he woke up. I offered to pray with Him, and he agreed. We have prayed together three times now. Bruce has not regained his sight, but something amazing happened each time we prayed together. You can find the testimony from the last two times we prayed together on the Witness Wednesday playlist on YouTube. You can also find them on whatever podcast app you are listening to right now. Today's witness is about when Bruce and his lovely wife Alice came from Canada to visit Gloucester, MA, and my friend and I got to pray with them in person instead of over the phone. It was a great time, and I am so grateful the Lord brought Bruce, Alice, and me together. I know you will enjoy this witness as much as I enjoyed it. God is working in such miraculous ways!Dear Catherine,It is two months from today that we met with you and Nancy in Rockport. In the meantime, you have been to Scotland and back and I have had a new experience which I will tell you about. You may use it in your Witness Wednesday if you would like to. On July 23rd, my wife Alice and I had the pleasure of meeting with Catherine and her friend Nancy for lunch. This vacation had been planned well in advance before we met Catherine. It turned out that Nancy's home was just down the road from where we were staying. Sitting outside by the ocean, the four of us chatted and also prayed together for healing. There was no major change in my eyesight at that time, but I realized that the floaters and shifting debris that I normally saw, were gone. It felt like I had more life in my eyes - just a feeling. This visit was a real blessing and encouragement for us before heading for home a couple of days later.For some time I had been without any sight in my left eye and was able to see light and shadows in my right eye. After this recent change my right eye went completely dark but the movement of floaters was gone. I couldn't tell the difference between day or night. I couldn't see if there were any lights on in the house. Things were the same whether my eyes were open or shut. I had to make an adjustment to this. I found the darkness heavy and depressing. I also felt spiritually let down and more isolated. I heard someone talking about God's light of the world and I thought, we often ask the Lord to shine His face upon us in the Benediction. It was a Monday in August and I told the Lord how I felt. I wanted to somehow have more communication with Him. I didn't want to be in the dark anymore, and would He please shine His light upon me. The next day, Tuesday, I listened to Catherine's podcast which was about Jesus the Light of the world. This felt like my prayer was going somewhere and I became vigilant. That night I went to bed about 1:00 a.m. I was laying on my back in the dark. A small white light appeared in my head space. It seemed to sparkle and it began moving. It became brighter and larger and closer, shining with the brightness of lightning. I felt the light overtake me and I put my face in the pillow. The light was still there and I realized it was within me. It was beautiful and exciting. I began thanking and praising the Lord for this joyful experience. This light would move and pulse brighter then lower going on for an hour and a half until I fell asleep. I wanted to wake Alice but I didn't want to interrupt her sleep or the light. When I awoke in the morning, the light was gone. I figured this was a one time experience. Later that morning, I began telling Alice about it. I stopped and said, It's happening again right now. There was an arch of brilliant white light before me. Beautiful as ever. It stayed with me for a couple of hours, coming and going into the night. This continued daily much to my joy. I noticed whenever I sat at the table it would appear. Whenever I listen to my audio Bible or even thought about the Lord or spiritual matters, it would appear. I found myself talking with the Lord in this light. If I was praying it would appear. It was always with me when I went to sleep. I soon realized I could call on it by asking it to appear. I was quite amazed by the way this all happened, by the communication which took place , and the overwhelming feeling of God's love. There was nothing to do but simply enjoy the moment with the Lord and His light. As I write this, the Lord still shines his light upon me, every day and every night. This has been an unexpected and thrilling blessing for me, far better than I hoped for. I can't help but feel this is leading me somewhere good. My hope and faith has never been more confident than it is now. It is so easy for me to trust the Lord to love me and walk me where He wants to take me. He really is my guiding light. I have in the past had close encounters with Jesus which have been marvelous. But this encounter in His light seems to never end. How wonderful is this. It lifts my heart to look back and see how God works in our lives. Alice and I had planned our trip to Glouchester long before we knew Catherine. Her podcast came out of the blue one night on my google home and caught my attention. Her faithfulness and prayer support is so appreciated. Through Catherine and the prayer group she attends, I have also met Nancy and talked with Robert and learned that they have also prayed for me. These friends in prayer and support have inspired me and I am privileged to know them. My visit in July was meant to be some sort of breakthrough. That's what I had prayed for. As often is the case, I felt things didn't go as I had hoped. As it turned out, I received a blessing I never expected along with new found faith and hope. A few years ago I heard a story told by an Anglican minister in England. He was known for his healing ministry. He told the story of a women who had lost her sight in both eyes. The women related how she started seeing a white light. This light would come and go from time to time and would vary in intensity. She said this went on for some time. One day she heard about a special healing ministry near her. The light continued to be with her. She made her way to the healing service in Blackpool. After preaching the gospel of Jesus, the minister invited people to come forward for healing prayer. Many people went forward and she waited in her seat where she was healed.I thank the Lord every time I see his light. I thank the Lord for my friends in Massachusetts.May the Lord bless you Catherine and your ministry.Bruce and AliceThank you so much for sharing your testimony with us and for allowing me to share it on my Witness Wednesday. I know your story will give hope to so many others out there who are also waiting for some pretty big answers to some pretty big prayers. Your faithfulness will help them trust in the Lord more.

IntroductionToday's witness is from my new friend Bruce. Bruce found my podcast randomly, and when he heard the call for people to share their stories, he reached out to me through email and shared his story with me. I asked him if I could share it, and he said yes. Bruce has made a career for the past thirty years as a head scenic artist, art director, and designer in the professional theatre business.  For the past five years, he has also had a studio on James St. N., where he produced his own artwork.  He is known and loved by many in the community for his work teaching the PMC art class for over a decade, as well as a more recent class for seniors at the YWCA.  This is his story of losing sight but finding a new depth of faith.BackstoryI've been a believing Christian since the age of ten, but at some point in the past few years, I began to notice a growing sense of spiritual restlessness.  I felt like I never had the kind of spiritual life that you read and hear about.  I always felt there could be a better experience.  I wanted that closeness to God and that shower of blessings that the scriptures describe, but I always figured I was not worthy of it—or else I would have known it by now.  A few years ago, pastor lane spoke about being “haunted by God.”  This began happening to me.  I would wake up in the middle of the night thinking someone was there.  I was never afraid, even though it felt surreal or supernatural.  It was as if someone was trying to tell me something, but no words were heard.  Someone was there.  It was the Holy Ghost haunting me.  This was a good haunting.  I was quite moved by this and began to pray for something to happen that would make me a better person and Christian.  I asked myself what I would want from God as a spiritual blessing or gift if I had the chance.  I decided that my greatest spiritual weakness was a lack of courage, so that is what I prayed for.  I honestly believe that my answer came in the form of the trial I would soon go through.  I learned that when you ask God to do something, you had better stand firm and be prepared.  Spring 2016In the spring of 2016, I started to notice my eyesight slipping.  It was harder to focus.  I got new glasses prescribed, and by the time I picked them up, they failed to work for me.  The doctor determined that I had low eye pressure.  The doctor tried some treatments, but every treatment failed.  Sometimes, my vision would return, only to fail again shortly afterward.  I was coasting up and down with hopes and disappointment.  Summer 2016In the summer of 2016, Pastor Lane was teaching a series of sermons from the Book of Job.  This was never a favorite story of mine because I always looked at Job as someone with special favor from God.  Each Sunday, I would take my seat on the balcony and listen to the woes of Job while at the same time in noticing that my sight was diminishing a little more each week.  I've never been known to have a quick temper, but one night, lying in my bed, I felt a real anger at what was happening to me.  I was never a person who got angry at God, but now I was asking God, “How could you let this happen to an artist?”  I had just turned sixty-five.  I was looking forward to launching into more painting, more teaching, and a rewarding time ahead.  Instead, my retirement gift was blindness—received with some bitterness toward God.  August 16, 2016Taking what I thought was the mature approach to my anger, I decided that anger was not the right path and that it would only lead to my own misery.  As Christians, we are always taught to look for the good purpose in all things, including our troubles and trials. I struggled to see where there was any good in an artist losing his vision.  I was at a dead end and could not imagine my life without sight or the ability to do my artwork.  I was forced to challenge God.  I prayed, “Lord, I know I can't be angry at you about this.  I don't believe you would allow this to be cruel or to punish me.  I do believe you must have some purpose in these awful circumstances you have placed me in.  I am helpless and unable to understand any purpose for goodness here.  Show me what you want me to know."  August 17, 2016The next morning, as I was checking my email, I saw a message from a man I had worked with in previous years in the theatre business.  I was a little surprised because I didn't remember getting any messages from him before, so I was curious what he had to say.  There was no text in the email, just an image of a stone tablet with the words “Psalm 73” carved into it.  I had never known this man to talk about God or scripture, so this was a surprising message.  At this time, my vision was poor but still good enough that I could read using a magnifying glass.  I had a Bible in my studio, which Pastor Mike Mileski had given me.  It was a special edition with beautiful abstract artwork and a very easy-to-read text.  I read from it every day before I set to work on my painting.  On this day, I decided to read Psalm 73, hoping to discover why my colleague had sent it to me.  I started reading about Israel and the ungodly prospering.  This didn't seem to have anything to do with my situation.  Reading further, the Psalmist expresses frustration and admits his unworthiness to God.  I could relate to that more.  The next verse was one which I had heard and read many times before without too much notice:“Nevertheless, I am continually with thee. You hold me by my right hand.  You guide me with your counsel and, afterward, receive me to glory.  Whom have I in heaven but you, Lord, and there is nothing on earth that I desire more.  My heart and my flesh fail me, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.  It is good for me to be near God...I will put my trust in the Lord God that I may tell of his works.”I was reading while standing at my drafting table, but when I read these words, I slumped down into a chair because I felt my knees weaken.  I was so overcome by the words I read; it was as if I had never read or heard them before.  At that moment, as I sat in my studio, it felt like someone put a cloak around me.  A wave of peace and reassurance washed over me.  I felt peace I had never known before.  This was the “peace that passes all understanding,” which comes only from God.  This was the Holy Spirit answering my prayer.  Psalm 73 told me what I needed to know.  The Lord is with me, always at my right side, holding my hand.  He will guide my footsteps and prevent me from falling.  When my life on earth is over, I will stand with him in heaven because I am just as worthy in God's sight as Job.  I have no doubt of all this because the Lord has given me the courage to believe it fully.  After reading and taking in the words of Psalm 73, I said out loud in my studio, “What more could I possibly want?”  I re-read Psalm 73 several times right after.  I had never had a verse that I might refer to as my “life verse.”  Now I had my own life verse because Psalm 73 changed my outlook on life forever.  Fall 2016In the days and weeks that followed, I read psalm after psalm.  I discovered that I could listen to someone read the psalms on YouTube, which was easier than struggling with my sight.  I was amazed that the theology that weaved its way through the psalms.  Several of them bolstered my faith and my reverence for this great book.  I always read the daily devotional reading and commentary by Charles Spurgeon.  His insight into the human condition, combined with his knowledge of theology, is remarkable.  Many days he would offer up a psalm which would prove to be exactly what I needed to have that day.  In the year that followed, there were many efforts to fix my sight.  I underwent four surgeries and received countless injections in my eyes.  With a newfound peace and courage, I was able to go through all these ordeals knowing that the Lord was always with me.  With the help of excellent, caring doctors, I didn't need to worry.  Spring 2017By the spring, it seemed at first that the surgeries had succeeded.  The relief was short-lived.  The pressure problem had been fixed, but a new problem appeared in the form of calcium deposits on my cornea, which were clouding my vision.  I was just ready to get new glasses after waiting a year, only to find out it was not possible until the calcium was dealt with.  This involved another specialist and more delays.  I had been dealing with my life very well up until this time, but the combination of everything seemed to drag me down ‘til I felt depressed and very discouraged.  
August 17, 2017One particularly bad day, I went to see what my friend Charles Spurgeon had to say.  I was really counting on something meaningful to help me see my way out of this depressed state.  Instead of a psalm, this day's reading was from John: the story of Lazarus.  “Why Lazarus?” I thought.  That didn't seem to offer any help on this day.  Spurgeon told how Christ is telling us that our trials, troubles, and illnesses are not forever, that there is a time for these things to end.  That promise from God changed my mood from discouragement to hope and promise. I now had the promise that my long series of troubles with my sight would have an end.  That was good enough for me.  I had made it through the past year, and I knew I was a better person than before.  I don't think the old me would have come through the year as well.  The story continuesIn September of this year, I had an operation to remove the calcium from my cornea.  It was successful, but the condition has quickly returned since then.  Once again, I find myself unable to get new glasses, parked on the sidelines with hazy vision.  I am disappointed, but not without hope.  I have hope because of the many prayers on my behalf and the peace and courage that get from my Saviour, who holds my right hand.  I am in awe of what God has done for me this past year.  I am in awe of how God has moved in my life since I asked him to do something for me.  I am richly blessed with a loving wife, daughters, and a family who care about and for me.  I have a church filled with caring people who have prayed for me.  I have everything I need; I know not everyone is blessed the same way.  I don't know if I will have my sight restored to where I can read and write and create art again.  Even if I don't, I know that God will have a plan for me, and I will never be left without him.  I once asked what the Lord wanted me to do.  I found my answer in Psalm 73, which says. “I will tell of thy works.”  This is why I am telling my story.  I have yet to meet a person who did not face some sort of trouble, trial, illness, fear, and so on.  I want people to know that you can be deeply blessed and assured by just opening your heart and asking God to do something for you.  If you read Psalm 73 and do what the psalmist says by putting your trust in the lord, your life will change more than you can imagine.  Whoever you are—rich or poor, young or old, you and I can be as richly blessed and stand as worthy as Job in God's sight.  I just read a blog post that Bruce wrote for his church in November 2017. The following is part of an email to me summarizing his story and explaining about a miraculous event that happened in 2018.Hello Catherine, I listened to your podcast, " If You Only Knew The Power You Had In You", the other day. I came across it by chance and was so taken with it that I listened to several more of your podcasts. You asked people to send you their stories and prayer requests. I recently retired after 30 years as a professional artist in the Live theatre business. I had my own studio for painting and designing. I taught art classes for 13 years at my church as well as the YWCA seniors centre. For several years I was dealing with glaucoma which was under control. In 2017 after 14 eye operations I lost my sight and was told there was nothing more that can de done. In November 2018, I went to a healing service in Toronto, not knowing what to expect. I had a miraculous encounter with the Holy Spirit and recovered my eyesight. That was a Sunday night. However, Monday morning, when I woke up, I was blind again. I could have been angry but was not because I was so amazed at what happened and knew in faith that the Lord was with me on this. I have been to several healing services since then but have not received my sight. My faith is stronger than ever and I am unable to give up hope. However, I have had occasional times of real sadness. Lately, I told God I don't know what to pray or do anymore. I don't understand why I am left this way. I have asked Him to help me out of this state I am in. When this happens, God always answers my prayer. I have listened to hundreds of podcasts and sermons. Your messages have answered so many of my concerns at just the right time as none other have. I have felt so akin to your thinking and way of explaining things. I would so appreciate your prayers for healing and restoring my eyesight. I already know that God has done it once, and will do it again. With my thanks and blessing on your ministry. Sincerely, Bruce RepeiOnce I received this email I wrote back and asked if I could pray with Bruce over the phone. Two nights later I talked with Bruce & Alice on the phone for quite awhile. Bruce explained all about the healing service he went to and how his sight was restored. He could see all around the church, he could see Alice, he just looked around in awe the whole way home because he could finally see again. He looked all around his house when they got home. He didn't go to bed until 2 or 3 in the morning. As he stated in his email, his sight was once again gone when he woke up. Bruce and Alice were both very upbeat and positive about the journey. When praying over Bruce, he could definitely feel heat, which is a manifestation of the Holy Spirit. He did not regain his sight but we are all hopeful it will return. I will continue to keep him in my prayers and hopefully continue to pray with him over the phone. I ask you to keep Bruce & Alice in your prayers as well. I am looking forward to the Witness Wednesday when I get to have Bruce on here telling you in his own words what it was like to finally have his sight back once and for all. That is going to be a glorious day. Don't worry; whatever day it happens, I will be sure to tell you all about it! I won't wait for a Wednesday!Thank you Bruce for being brave enough to reach out to me and share your story with me. I am so honored you allowed me to pray with you and I can't wait to do it again! I hope I get to meet you both in person when you come to MA in July. I hope every single person listening now understands a little better why I always say it is important to share our stories. My faith has grown after hearing Bruce's story. People need to hear your story too. As Bruce said in his article, everyone has gone through something. Sometimes just hearing that someone else went through it and was able to trust in God makes it a little easier for you to trust in God. Thanks again Bruce!

Somehow I suspect you've either recently been in a conflict where you were corrected or have seen a need or opportunity to offer correction to another. If not, perhaps it's just around the corner. How about some guidelines from Jesus about that? Because we are God's children, and He warns us sternly against "despising the little ones." After radical detachment, we have to "turn back" to rescue the lost sheep of our inner child, and the lost sheep in our original and church families when they are also our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Using Matthew 18 as a touch point for discussion of the inner child is what we call using a "spiritual sense" of Scripture. It's fascinating to me that Jesus emphasized His teaching in 18 and part of 19 by placing children before Him (remember that chapter and verse numbers were not in the original writings, but added for our convenience). Like flesh and blood parables, children bookend His teaching on boundaries, and we learn that not only are healthy boundaries necessary to faith in dealing with one another in the family of God, but they're also necessary in human and faith development, too.  Thank you with all my heart to my newest Friends of the Show, Melanie D; Bruce R; Veronica W; Melinda M; Loren G; Tessa W; Lindsay B; Ann C; Carol S; Christina C; Vicki G; Anita C; Christin L; Emily P; Anne B; and Kevin G, for for loving and lifting me!

The christocentric character of Herman Bavinck's thought has long been acknowledged, but an analysis of Bavinck's christocentrism has not been forthcoming. The Heart of Dogmatics: Christology and Christocentrism in Herman Bavinck (Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2020) redresses this situation, offering a comprehensive study of Bavinck's concept of a christocentric theological system. Building on the more recent secondary literature, Bruce Pass draws attention to many unexplored avenues in Bavinck's writings. In particular, Pass sheds light on the intimate connection between Bavinck's christocentrism and his organicism. Delving deeply into Bavinck's appropriation of Reformed Orthodoxy and German Idealism, Pass presents a compelling account of this thinker's attempt to establish Neo-Calvinism as a modern orthodoxy. By way of conclusion, pertinent ways in which Bavinck's christocentrism may prove a useful resource for contemporary projects of theological retrieval are explored in a comparison of Bavinck and John Webster. Bruce Pass is a senior honorary research fellow at the University of Queensland, Australia. He has published numerous articles on Bavinck and modern theology as well as translated several of Bavinck's Academic Orations (Brill 2021).

This award honors students exhibiting excellence in athletics, academics, and leadership.In this episode, you'll learn: How Sahil went from 500 to 200,000 followers on Twitter in one year The emerging seven-figure opportunity Sahil sees for localized newsletters Sahil's system for writing exceptional content The key difference between income-producing activities and wealth-producing activities Links & Resources Packy McCormick Mario Gabriele Anthony Pompliano Fred Wilson Tomas Gomez a16z Future Synthesis School Hone Sequoia Benchmark QED Investors Ryan Holiday Notion Clayton Christensen Institute Pallet Patrick O'Shaughnessy Ben Thompson Sahil's Links Follow Sahil on Twitter: @SahilBloom The Curiosity Chronicle Episode TranscriptSahil: [00:00:00]I think of writing and storytelling as foundational skills to your entire life. I mean, if you write well, it makes you better in every other area of your life. I think more clearly it exposes the gaps in your thinking so quickly. And that happened to me all on the way. Like the amount that I learned about investing by writing about investing was insane.Nathan: [00:00:27]This episode is with Sahil Bloom. So, Sahil, full-time is an investor. He's a vice president at Altamont Capital Partners. On the side he has built a massive Twitter following over just the last year before we started the interview.I had no idea that his 200,000 plus Twitter followers have been in the last 14 months, basically since COVID.So, in this episode, we talk about growing a Twitter audience. We talk about all kinds of things. Sahil was a baseball pitcher for Stanford. And so we get into the new name/image/likeness rules for the NCAA.What else? There's all kinds of good stuf: his creative writing process, his mental models, how he thinks about income versus wealth. It's the kind of episode that I absolutely love some.So I'm going to get out of the way and let you listen to it. But really quick, if you'd do me a favor and go ahead and subscribe on Spotify, iTunes, wherever you listen to the podcast, and then write a review, I'd appreciate it. It will help the podcast reach a few more people.So, all right. Let's dive in.Sahil, thanks for joining me.Sahil: [00:01:34]Yeah. Thanks for having me.Nathan: [00:01:35]Okay. So, I want to start with what you put in your bio, which is just three words, investor, educator, and storyteller. I like how concise you've got this down to things that describe you, but how do you think about the way that those three interact with you?Sahil: [00:01:50]You know, it's it's interesting. I tend to think that there is like a natural flywheel that is being created in real time around the universe of like investing, in the universe of creating. And you're seeing it in real time with some of these, you know, creative capitalists for lack of a better way to put it.Like Packy is one of my favorite writers, does an incredible job. Mario, over at the The Generalist. A lot of these folks, I mean, Pomp was one of the early ones to do it. A lot of these folks have built these scale platforms, these audiences, and then as a result of that, and as a result of the reach and the leverage that they're able to get on, having that kind of owned audience in a certain extent, to a certain extent, they're able to really support these companies.And so, as an investor, as an advisor, you can kind of just create this natural flywheel around it, where your content creation and the creative work is the leading into, these really interesting investment and capitalists opportunities. And then because of those, you're actually getting more content to write about.It actually is creating this really unique, flywheel that I think we're really in the early days of candidly, like, we've seen a lot of people starting to do it, but it's very much the first inning in my opinion. And I think there's a massive shakeout happening in the investment world because of it.All of the VC is, and all of these growth equity funds are just starting to realize that in order to win deals, in order to be a part of these cap tables and really provide value, you know, they've said, how can we be helpful as like the joke moniker for a long time, but in order to really be helpful, you need to be able to do tangible things for the companies that you're supporting and investing in.And these creator capitalists, I do feel like have figured that out and I don't put myself in the same ranks as those people that I mentioned at all. I'm kind of very green and new to this, but, it's been fun to start see the early fruits of that.Nathan: [00:03:42]Yeah. It's interesting to me. Cause you've seen for a long time, investors like, Fred Wilson, Tomas Gomez and others, like have these blogs or newsletters, you know, for a long time. And it's gotten them incredible deal flow and reputation and everything else, but it does seem like there's a new wave.I don't know if it's just the next generation of creators doing this, but it's much more Twitter forward rather than starting with a blog and a Twitter, a newsletter. do you see other continuations or differences between like sort of the previous generation in the second generation.Sahil: [00:04:17]Yeah. I mean, I think that the VC world has known this for a long time. like the early stage VCs in particular have known that. Audience and reach was a wedge for deal flow. And so like, you look at the of the world, they built from the early days, really like a content house, right? Like they put out incredible thought pieces.You know, they recently launched this thing, Future, which is really just like a content ecosystem that they're going to continue to expand on. So there are certain firms that have been doing this for a long time, or to your point, there are certain investors who have been doing this for a long time. I think the scale of it has changed, discovery and the algorithms have been dramatically improving.And so, you're able to generate just a much larger following and a much more engaged following. And so the people that are consistently putting things out, it's not one piece every six months, it's, you know, you're capturing attention because you're consistently putting out great content that captures eyeballs.Those are the people that are actually able to generate leverage on that audience. And as a result, create value for the companies that they're investing in. Synthesis School. I think is a great example of it. It's this really cool education technology platform. They have a long list of amazing investors, all of whom are kind of individual creator, capitalists, and you know, people on Twitter that are big Twitter personalities.And so, they're able to just basically have this like narrative domination effect where on Twitter, you constantly are seeing content and people posting about this. And you're like, what the heck is that? What is that business? And it just creates this massive advantage for a business like that. That's able to capture that mind share and become a like cognitive reference, for lack of a better way to put it for education disruptive.Nathan: [00:05:59]So do you think when, when someone's looking to take money from, from you as an investor from, you know, someone like Paki or anyone else, who has these audiences, how much is it? The, like the reputation and the brand of that person that I love the term creative capitalist. Cause it sort of differentiates here, but, which is that reputation and brand versus like what they'll, what that credit capitals will do as far as audience and reach later, like for example, the men's health, sort of raw, what is it?Brown home. There you go. Ron is a different Rona's AI is a clothing brand .Yeah, exactly. also a solid company,Sahil: [00:06:44]Cool brand. Yeah.Nathan: [00:06:46]Hone you like I think it was just yesterday that they had these pieces kind of going up everywhere and it was basically all of their, you know, creator, capitalist investors who have these audiences who coordinated some level of a launch.And so I'm curious as people are taking this money, Is it like, Hey, you're going to be useful as an advisor or is it really like, your money is quite a bit better than someone else's because you're also going to promote and put out this link pieces and link to it in your, in your content.Sahil: [00:07:17]Yeah. I think the way that founders are thinking about it, and this is, you know, informed partially by my own perspective, partially from talking to a lot of these founders. So you have a $5 million round, you know, it used to be that you kind of get your anchor like some lead and, you know, hopefully that's like a tier one VC, a Sequoia benchmark, a 16 Z you know, QED, whoever it might be.And you kind of then have the rest of that round to fill out. And normally you bring on, you know, someone that's not the lead, maybe a couple of other VCs, but then you have this like million dollar set it's on the tail. End of it. That's left. And now you're deciding between, do I take on a tier two tier three VC to like fill out this round, basically the VCs that are willing to write a smaller check behind a bunch of other people that are leading.Or do I go bring on 10 people at a hundred K each or at smaller checks that can really meaningfully accelerate and allow me to achieve escape velocity. And for these early companies, especially the ones that are consumer facing that like getting eyeballs on their product or on their service, whatever they're creating is meaningfully differentiating in terms of the trajectory of what the creating.I think it's a no brainer. I mean, for a lot of these, especially at seed and a stage, like just getting them traction in the early days from a revenue growth perspective is so important because it allows you to go raise your next round and basically push out competition because the way these markets work is like capital flows, especially in technology.When you have potential and of one place there's capital is flowing to the people who can really meaningfully accelerate and get to that end point and you fall a little bit behind. You'll find that the capital markets are really pinching for you, and you're no longer able to raise money. And so. That's kind of how I think about it is like, if we can go take on that last chunk and for a small amount of dilution, add a tremendous amount of value.That's a real differentiator relative to taking on another VC on the backend of your, of your cap table.Nathan: [00:09:10]Yeah, that makes sense. So I want to go back to maybe pre Twitter, famous Sahil, like, cause you're thinking about going into, because you have hundreds of thousands of followers on Twitter now, like it's turned into a pretty massive audience. What were like, was that a deliberate decision to say, okay, I'm going to go all in.I'm going to build this public persona or this public audience, or did it happen more gradually over time?Sahil: [00:09:38]Yeah, that's a great question. I mean, look, I, I played baseball in college. I was solid. I wasn't great. Like I was never the star, so I never had some big following, like the college athletes of today that are the stars and have these massive, massive followings. So I had a Twitter account had never really used it.I kind of. Looked at funny stuff on there and, you know, would see news and things like that. COVID hit in March, 2020, and suddenly I wasn't commuting, you know, my job, which I was normally on the road three or four days a week for, I wasn't traveling. I had like all this time that just got unlocked all of a sudden.And I couldn't figure out like what to do with it. And what I realized was there was all these people, that were so confused about what was happening in the world of like finance business market. and what I like the realization I had fundamentally was that there were kind of two ends of the spectrum of financial education.There was like the, you know, very low end, like tic talkers, talking to you about like random options you should yellow into. And I didn't view that as particularly socially. Good. And then there was like the high end, which is the establishment financial educators who are basically just throwing a ton of jargon at people, trying to make them feel dumb.It's like, let me make you, realize that you need to hire me to pay, to manage your money by throwing a bunch of jargon, throwing a bunch of terms at you that you don't understand. And so what I said was like, I'm going to do neither of those things. I'm going to go straight down the middle. I'm going to be the light Toyota Camry of this market.And just say things in a way that anyone can understand no jargon, no complex terms, just like make it for everybody so that it's accessible. Digestible. And so I started just writing. it was may of 2020. I wrote my first thread had like 500 followers at the time on Twitter. Didn't really know what to make of it.I knew that it was a pretty good thread. And I said to my wife, jokingly that I thought it was going to go viral. And she like rolled her eyes at me. And, you know, whatever happened. it started to kind of pick up steam, like tweeted one of my things, mark Cuban retweeted, one of my things. And it was shocking to me, but pretty cool.Cause I saw it start to gain traction and I realized, okay, maybe there's something to this. but the reality for me was like, there was never a grand strategy to it. I never intended to build some huge audience. Like I thought it was amazing when I got to 4,000 followers. I remember thinking like, this is insane that I have this many people following me that care about what I think.And I kind of just kept putting out content. I mean, over the last year and two months or whatever, it's been since I started I've written. A hundred, 1,314 threads, 90,000 words. mean, it's just been consistency over anything else, candidly? I never had like one piece that blew me up over the, 20,000 followers or something.It's just been like a steady grind of just putting things out, kind of a slow drip effect.Nathan: [00:12:22]So that points to us to get a schedule. Are you basically putting out two threads a week? Is that the case?Sahil: [00:12:28]Yeah. I would say in the early days I was like, I had more time cause COVID and everything going on and I was kind of like probably doing three. There were probably times when I put out four things a week, because I had more time, but in the early days too, it was taking me a lot more time to write these things.Because I hadn't figured out what worked and what didn't. And so I was like in test and learn mode, it was taking me a ton of time to research and like figure out the right hooks and the way to write things and the style of writing that worked on Twitter. And so I spent, I mean, hundreds of hours over the course of the last year on the weekends, like sitting around, pounding my head into a wall, figuring it out.More recently I've kind of gotten into a cadence of like one piece of writing a week. and then with the newsletter I have, you know, I usually expand on that one thread and kind of a more robust newsletter. And then I have the Friday piece, which is a curation thing to kind of help promote other creators.Nathan: [00:13:20]Yeah. So I'm curious, what are some of the things that. That changed as you, well, may, maybe we'll start with the amount of times, like when you're putting, let's go to a single thread, maybe in the early days, how much time was one of those threads taking, and then, you know, now how much time does it take to put together a thread?Sahil: [00:13:39]Yeah. So in the early days, I would say I was doing a lot of like deep research based writing. you know, like I do take an example. Like I did a thread on the game stop thing in January, and like GameStop was, you know, rip roaring. Everyone was wondering what was going on, what had happened, how could that happen?Et cetera. And so I sort of like went into a, down a rabbit hole on understanding, short squeezes and gamma squeezes, and all these complex finance things. And that took me a long time because basically I had to figure out the concept of a gamma squeeze and, you know, the, and how that can be disseminated in a way that anyone can understand, which is like much easier said than done.And I might've rethought it if I had, if I had known how long it was gonna take me to figure that out, but that early stuff I would say. You know, would take me kind of five to six hours probably to like research, write, edit, and kind of refine those pieces. Similarly with those like early, like more story-based threads that I was doing, kind of the stories of people's lives that you see a lot of now on Twitter, less of back when I was doing it, those would take me six, seven hours, cause I was going deep, you know, into these people's lives and figuring it out.And it was really driven by my curiosity. Like I just love learning about these things. And so I would write about things that I genuinely wanted to go learn about and that made it a lot easier. Cause it didn't feel like, oh, this is a waste of time. If it doesn't take off and go viral, you know, at worst I learned a lot and at best I learned a lot and it went viral and got me a bunch of followers.And now more recently, I mean, I'd say I'm in a good cadence of it where it's like, you know, one of my more kind of like mental models, decision-making frameworks thinking, frameworks type threads probably takes two to four hours depending on what I'm writing. But I have this, like, we can get into it, but I have this just massive repository of like content ideas, notes that I've kind of dropped in there over time.So when I actually go to write something, a lot of it's just there and I just needNathan: [00:15:38]Right.Sahil: [00:15:38]How to construct it.Nathan: [00:15:40]Okay. Yeah. Let's, let's focus on that because I think so many people wonder about writing habits and they're like, how do you weave these things together? You know, like I read one of Ryan holiday's books as an example, and he, I'm always amazed at his ability to pull in. Like reference some historical figure creator, author, any anybody tell their story, make his point move on.And you're like, oh, that was so good. Wait, you did that in two sentences. You know, you did that, like in his really concise way, he's got these perfect examples, but if you ever hang out with Ryan or visit him at his house, he has this like ridiculous collection of no cards. You know, it's like boxes of note cards per book, and, you know, it's as crazy process and really every successful author, every school writer that I've worked with has some really great organization process.So I'd love to hear more about,Sahil: [00:16:34]Yeah, I love that story about Ryan. That's a cool one. I'll keep that for later. yeah, so I mean, my, my strategy with it has evolved over time, but th the way I generally think about it is you kind of have a proprietary content engine, and what that is differs for everybody. Like it, that's kind of the inputs.So that's, what are you reading on a daily basis? What are you watching? What are you listening to? All of those things are kind of like your content engine, because those are, what's giving you ideas, things that are coming up. That's like all the stuff you're consuming on a daily basis, and then you have the outputs and that's like, how do you turn that?Like, put it into your little meat grinder and like, turn that into what you're writing about. And so the way I generally think about it is. Part of my daily habit as I'm reading and consuming interesting content. and it might be newsletters, blogs, podcasts, tweets that people send me, like all of this stuff goes into my content engine.What I do personally is I have a notion, page that's a board and it's, I just have it set up as like, a few columns where I have kind of like, you know, ideas that I have, like, you know, things I'm going to write about soon. Then I have things I've started and then like finished pieces that I haven't posted yet.And then all of the stuff that's posted and done. And so when I have something I'm reading and it peaks my curiosity, or it's like, oh, this is a cool concept, whatever it might be. Like, I recently wrote a thread on, the concept of like the Fox and the hedgehog. and that was the one that, like, I had just been reading something on a friend's, VC funds page.And it was like, oh, this is an interesting concept. Let me throw this into my notion doc. And so I had Fox and hedgehog in there. I linked. Article I've been reading. and then like a few weeks later, I kind of got it to learn more about that. And so I went and read some things and I dropped in some notes and dropped in a few more articles and pieces where I had heard people see, you know, or talk about it.And now suddenly when I go to write about it, the next day I have like four sources. I have a bunch of notes sitting there of like things that had come to my mind in the moment when I was interested about it. I kind of had a framework for how I wanted to think or write about it. And so it made the process of starting much easier because I already had all that stuff sitting there.I wasn't starting from a dead stop and saying like, I need to write this great piece on foxes and hedgehogs. I had all this stuff and I just needed to figure out how to craft it, like sculpt it into what I wanted. So that's kind of how I think about the process. It's like, you're consuming mean things on a daily basis.Figure out what those are. It doesn't have to be like smart stuff is whatever you're consuming. It shouldn't feel. And take that and leverage it into creating this like repository of interesting ideas, because like when you do it that way, you never run out of stuff to write about. I get asked that a lot.Like how do you write something every week? Or how do you not run out of things? And my, my answer is like, there's an endless amount of interesting stuff out there in the world. And it's just a matter of like opening your kind of content engine to all of that so that you can then go and write and comment on these things and, and share about it.So that's kind of how I think about it generally. It's like kind of, you have the inputs and the output, so you need to figure out what your kind of middle is your middle layer, so that you can turn the inputs into the outcome.Nathan: [00:19:44]Okay. This is a little bit off topic, but when you were. Starting school, you know, going to school at Sanford for like economics and sociology and then getting a master's in public policy and you're getting into investing and starting your career there. Did you ever think that you'd be a writer like that?That would be the primary, source. It's just so interesting the way these worlds overlap.Sahil: [00:20:08]The short answer is no, I never considered myself a good writer. I don't know, I still don't consider myself that great of a writer to be honest, like people like my writing, which makes me think maybe I write reasonably well, but I think it's just effort. Like I've just spent more time on it over the last year, a lot of people, but, no, I never really thought I would kind of be able to like create something that had value around creative work that was never in the scope of what I thought about my primary job is still as an investor.Like, and I think we'll continue to be. And I, and I still think of like investing and advising as kind of like the primary, kind of part of my ecosystem that I'm creating the creative work is becoming a bigger and bigger part of what makes me a unique and interesting investor. and I love it. I mean, that's the thing for me is. I get so much energy out of the fact that I get to spend time on writing and content creation on a daily basis. I love doing it. You know, I'm starting to do more video stuff. I'm going to be engaging more in that realm, but like the fact that I get to write think read, and that's kind of part of my job.Like that's a really, really cool thing to me. And I never really thought, you know, going to school or whatever I thought I was going to do next. It definitely didn't come within the realm of what I'm actually getting to work on.Nathan: [00:21:23]Yeah, I think it's so interesting. Like I never thought that I would be a writer and I remember like specifically telling my parents, like, I hate writing. Like why would I ever, you know, why do I have to do so much of this in school and all of that? my mom was an English major, you know, and like big advocate for, writing and all of that, which I now am very grateful for.But it's amazing the number of people now that, that we think of that are like really quite effective writers that never started there never expected that.Sahil: [00:21:54]Yeah. I mean, I think of, I think of writing and storytelling as well. Foundational skills to your entire life. I mean, if you write well, it makes you better in every other area of your life. Like since I've spent more time on writing and have a writing habit that is making me a better writer, I've become veteran every other area of my life.Like I think more clearly it exposes the gaps in your thinking so quickly. Like if you, if you sit down and you think you understand something and you try to write it down in a way that, you know, a kid could pick it up and understand it, you very quickly realize if you don't understand that thing. and that happened to me all on the way, like the amount that I learned about investing by writing about investing was insane because I had to sit down and try to explain it to a five-year-old basically with my tweet threads.And when I didn't understand the thing, like the gap was like a blaring thing in front of me and I had to go research it more and dig into it and understand it. And so I just think that like, when you write, you expose flaws in your thinking, and that causes you to go down the rabbit hole and learn more about whatever it might.Nathan: [00:22:58]Yeah. That's good. Is there anything, any resources or things you paid attention to to get better at writing? Like, do you read any of the traditional, you know, and Lamont bird by bird?Sahil: [00:23:07]Yeah, I read elements of style. when I was younger, like I think in high school, I read that and that stuck with me. you know, candidly, like I just study some people that I respect and think of as great writers. Like David Perell has become a friend and I feel very lucky for that, but I just thought of him as a great writer and the things that he put out in his, the elegance of his writing and the different, you know, ways that he was writing things on a, for brig, has become a friend.I think she writes exceptionally well on, on education and some of these topics. I just think that there's a wealth of unbelievable, talented, people out there that like are publishing things that anyone can read and you don't have to pay. Like you can go see it, learn from it. And so I try to be a student of the internet in that regard.Nathan: [00:23:53]Yeah, no, that's good. okay. So since you've built such a massive audience so quickly on Twitter with threads, I'm curious, what have you found? What are the things that are really working? What makes a good thread? You know, now you're writing to those things that, that resonate right away, you know, and you're like, oh, I can cut out all of that, that I was doing before.Sahil: [00:24:13]Yeah.Nathan: [00:24:14]What's working. What have you.Sahil: [00:24:15]Yeah. I mean, I would say there's like a handful of principals that I think were quite well. you know, number one is like, if you're writing a thread, the hook has to be good. because you need to give people a reason to click and convert and, and, and kind of look through to whatever you're writing.I do think, you know, now more than ever threads are like a somewhat saturated game, so to speak because people realize, I mean, I, when I first started writing them, very few people were writing threads. Twitter didn't even have like infrastructure built around long form content. It was pretty janky. You had.Manually add a tweet under each one and copy and paste it in. And now they, they realize that it keeps people on the platform, then it's a great mechanism for them. And so the algorithms prioritize it. People realize it's a growth hack, you know, like really is much better for growth than single tweets.And so it's become a bit saturated, I would say. And so, as a result of that, I think the burden of proof is higher on like the quality of the content that you should be putting out. I think there's a risk of like losing high quality followers. you know, by just like over, you know, just putting out too many threads that aren't really high quality.And so my best advice is like, make the hook rate, make sure the hook is like really catchy and draws people in and then just make sure that quality is like exceptional and something. You can be proud of. My whole thesis all along with my Twitter was, you know, there's like a spectrum of kind of posting frequencies.You have the like, pump who has been exceptionally successful. Every single day, he's all over it. He's posting a lot, you know, high frequency. And then I'm on the other end of the spectrum, like a Julian Shapiro's on the other end of the spectrum. People like that, that like right every now and then, you know, it might be once a week.It might be once every couple of weeks. but what you, what you're putting out is like, I stand behind every single thing that I've ever written on Twitter. you know, from a thread perspective, because I know that I spent a bunch of time on it. I really thought it through, if I didn't understand something, I was getting it vetted.I was having someone review it. I mean, I just, the internet is permanent. Right. And so I like it's my personal capital on the line and I wanted to make sure everything was really, really good. And so, that's important as you, as you put things out there is just like, make sure you feel really good about the quality of what you're writing.Nathan: [00:26:31]Yeah, that's a good point that if you're doing the approach of, like, I went to a Wikipedia article and like made a thread of the content that's in there, which is a lot of threads that you come across as, that's a genuine question that ISahil: [00:26:44]Yeah.Nathan: [00:26:45]Reading some of them. the quality really matters.Sahil: [00:26:47]Yeah. I agree. And I go both ways on that. Right. Like I did, you know, a bunch of like, in my early days, especially I did a bunch of what people would have thrown into that bucket of like Wikipedia threads, my perspective on it was always, great. The Wikipedia articles there. but if you wouldn't have seen it, and it's a really interesting story and I'm packaging it into something that makes it more broadly disseminated, that's a value added service that I just brought to the table.And so like, I don't know, like Morris Chang, I wrote a thread on he's a founder of Taiwan, semiconductor manufacturing company, amazing guy, incredible story. Does he have like, you know, information on Wikipedia about him? Sure. But like I posted it and 17,000 people liked it and saw, you know, 5 million people saw it that most of them probably didn't know who the hell he was because they were never going to go to that Wikipedia page.And so I kind of go both ways on that criticism. The reality is that type of thread has become a bit of like a meme where, you know, there's clearly broad push back against it and, and, you know, it's become a little bit of a meme of itself. And so I do think it's worth being kind of wary about regularly publishing that type of content.Nathan: [00:27:55]I think it probably comes down to how unique the story is that you're sharing. Like maybe it is on Wikipedia, but, well, exactly what you're saying. That is not someone that I would have gone to look for, but I read and enjoyed that thread. Whereas if you're just like, here's this thing about Steve jobs is like, you mean the Steve jobs story that everyoneSahil: [00:28:15]Yes,Nathan: [00:28:16]Heard a hundred times then it's very different,Sahil: [00:28:18]I totally agree with that. I mean, like if you're going to go tell the story of. You know, Elon Musk, how he, you know, started space or whatever, like start Tesla or something like, yeah, everyone kind of knows that and it's, it's a little bit played up and, and people understand it. And so I just think it's worth balancing with your own unique content.And that was how I always did it. Whereas like, if I was going to post in one of those stories, I was going to post something that I like deeply researched and did unique educational content and just kind of balance the two. And I think that would like, that worked for me. I think it probably works for others.Nathan: [00:28:51]How do you think about the intersection between your Twitter following and your newsletter? Like as you've built that over the last year.Sahil: [00:28:59]Yeah. I started the newsletter. Yeah. I first just created it in January of this year. and I originally just created it because there were a lot of people on Twitter who wanted to get my threads in their inbox. Like didn't like the Twitter format for them and wanted to just have it in a nicer format.And so for the first, five months of it, like through mid may, all it was was just me sending out my threads the day later, with, you know, just like a nicer format. And so the newsletter list grew to something like 13,000 people just from that, which I was pretty amazed by honestly, you know, more recently.So mid may I decided to do the Friday, I'm calling it the Friday five now, but basically curation focused, five pieces of interesting things that I consumed, like my content engine during the week. and really focused on promoting other creators. that was like, I really wanted it to be a positive, some thing.I'm creating this list and I want to help use it to kind of promote others that are creating great content that need help with discovery that maybe they're smaller. They need more eyes on their things. They're putting out great things, but sometimes it's hard, it's going into the abyss. And so I'm helping with discovery for them.And so I launched that. and then I've recently started just more expanding on the concepts that are my threads. And so it's sort of like, I think of the threads as sort of a taken down version of a longer form newsletter piece as I've prioritized the newsletter. and I, you know, I really use Twitter for like, it's a discovery mechanism for the newsletter.The reality of newsletters as you know, is that discovery is really, really hard and it's cobbled together and there's no like central, kind of authority for discovery right now. And so you need to kind of hack it together and figure out how do you make your newsletter really shareable? How do you drive new eyeballs to it?How do you kind of like generate growth over time? Because. You know, if your Twitter is growing at 15, 20,000 a month, you know, of new followers and your newsletters growing out, like, you know, 50 that's kind of a problem. and so driving people through and like figuring out how to convert that funnel is like really what I'm trying to figure out and understand right now.Nathan: [00:31:07]Yeah. I think that what I mean exactly the point that you made newsletters don't have any. You people talking about like, there's no algorithm for newsletters, so you're not having to fight to, I read your, your readers. And it's like, yes, absolutely. You're spot on. Also, there's no algorithm for newsletters.And so there's no distribution, you know, there are, there's no discovery. And so you're having to use outside channels, like the newsletter authors from 5, 10, 15 years ago. they use their blogs and, you know, sites like dig and hacker news and others to get along new followers, but also just search, you know, having the, the, long form articles that were ranking really well on Google.And, and I feel like very much the newsletter creators of today are all in on TwitterSahil: [00:31:56]Yeah.Nathan: [00:31:56]Yeah.Yeah. There's but like very much on Twitter to get that discovery.Sahil: [00:32:00]Yeah. I agree with that. And it's, it's going to be interesting to see how the, like the newsletter wars continue to play out. Right? Because all of these platforms are realizing and Twitter realized it. I'm sure Facebook realized it with their recent launch that way. They are providing discovery for a lot of people that are then going off platform with their longer form content.And so Twitter acquired review, you know, Facebook has their new launch and it's just, it'll be interesting to see kind of how that plays out in terms of, you know, where people go with their, you know, with their newsletters and how it all kind of, how it all shakes out in the coming months and year.Nathan: [00:32:35]Yeah. Well, let's dig in there more. Cause like I obviously care about that space a lot being in the middle of it. And you see, you mentioned Twitter and Facebook. Spotify is in the mix. They reached out to us. I don't know, two months ago about, you know, acquiring ConvertKit oddly, they were more, I thought that it was, they were interested in us because of the music side of things, as we've made acquisitions in the music space and all of that turns out, they were more way more interested in the podcast side of things.Like then we have the Tim Ferriss of the world, you know, a lot of top podcasts using ConvertKit. And so I'm curious where all of this goes. I think, you know, like everything five years from now, 10 years from now, we'll look back and the path that ended up becoming most common, you know, whichever platform dominates or if it stays fragmented, you know, we'll look back and be like, oh, that was obvious.But in this moment, I think it's actually fairly up in the air of like, is sub stack going to continue to rise? Will it be review, will bulletin. I mean, that's what Facebook's isSahil: [00:33:33]Yep.Nathan: [00:33:34]Be a flash in the pan or will it actuallySahil: [00:33:38]Yeah.Nathan: [00:33:39]Six around.Sahil: [00:33:40]Yeah. I mean, I think if I had to guess, I think Twitter is in the pole position on it. And the only reason I say that is. they are the main mode of discovery for most writers. And so if they can do anything with the algorithms to prioritize discovery, to review newsletters, that's a massive advantage.Embedded, you know, just because they already have people on the platform. And so th that'd be like it from an investor standpoint, that would be my guess is just that continues to try to ship product that allows them to capture more of the value that their platform is actually been creating for the last 10 years that they've captured none of,I mean, like Twitter has been abysmal at capturing the value that's created through Like, I mean the amount of value that I have flowing through Twitter broadly speaking, Twitter's capturing $0 of, and that's sort of a travesty just from a business standpoint. And like, as an investor, you look at that and you're like, man, that's a huge opportunity if they can figure out how to capture of that.Nathan: [00:34:35]Will you see it reflected in their market cap versus Facebook's Write of like, I mean, I I don't even know what Twitter's market cap is, but it's yeah Twitter's marketSahil: [00:34:45]Cap caps like 55 billion, I think, but like the, yeah, I mean, Twitter is Twitter's ad product is also just pretty bad relative to, you know, relative to Snapchat or Facebook, but I think it should improve. I mean, as they do more of the creator economy and as they spend more time, you know, actually capturing some of this value, the quality of their ads and the ability to target and all of those things should just get a lot better, which makes their ad monetization better.And that drives the whole engine. So, I mean, I personally, like I'm on Twitter and their opportunity around all of it. I'm also like native creator. I mean, I basically wrote a blog on Twitter over the last year. I'd be like, create these content loops and I'm linking back through the old threads.And like, I sort of do a Ben Thompson does what Stratec Curry, but I do that on Twitter, inNathan: [00:35:29]That's super interesting. I'm looking at it from the perspective of, if it's going to be. Like a major platform, like as we look at newsletters, will it be basically Facebook or Twitter at this point that, that dominates that with reviewer bulletin? Or will it be still a mix of the subset convert kit?That kind of thing, like will creators end up starting on review and be like, oh, you know, I wrote some dreads, I got a thousand followers, Twitter like pops up and says like, Hey, you should do a newsletter. You know? And so they start that and then maybe they want more functionality and then they move to a, you know, a ConvertKit or another platform, or if the distribution will become so powerful, that, and the discovery is so powerful that there's a real reason to stay on,Sahil: [00:36:14]Yeah. I mean, it's sort of like the. The Clayton Christiansen, model of like disruption and innovation, where you like you, you know, the, the, the platforms that are like very newsletter specific are going to be able to provide a better solution for the full range of potential creators that are on the platform, because that's their entire focus.Like that's all they spend time on and, you know, newsletters are never going to be Twitter's sole focus and they, you know, need to get better at shipping product. And they have a bunch of different areas they're working on and focused on. I'm sure they have a team that's focused on newsletters and long form, and I'm sure that team is great and have great engineers, but, if you can be a player that is like newsletter specific and you can provide an amazing solution for every kind of type of creator and archetype that sits on your platform, that's a real way that you can create a wedge and create a sticky customer base there.Nathan: [00:37:06]Yeah. We'll see how it plays out because, one thing is that email has never been a winner take all market. You know, we look at like, MailChimp's the biggest player by far, but even then, I don't know what their eight or 900 million a year in revenue, something like that.Sahil: [00:37:20]Yeah.Nathan: [00:37:20]And, and you've got plenty of players that are, you know, likeSahil: [00:37:23]Yeah.Nathan: [00:37:24]Campaign monitors and others in the hundreds of millions of, yeah.Sahil: [00:37:26]Yeah. It's also going to be a long tail market. I think the most interesting part of the greater economy are going to be these like micro creators actually that are like hyper-local and writing about, you know, interesting local news as an example where they're not trying to get the like biggest following in the world, their goal is not to have a hundred thousand newsletter subs.It's to have like a thousand true fans, you know, that And so I think that that market is probably the most interesting, like there's going to be a ton. A hundred thousand dollars a year earners that are basically writing like the defacto newsletter for news in, you know, X part of the bay area, or for news in, you know, Westchester county or whatever it might be like.There's going to be all of these people that rise that are doing that. and making a six figure salary and working from home. And it's an amazing setup. And so I, I'm actually more interested in that than I am in the like macro influencer world of the creator economy, to people that are going to be making seven figures on all of this.Nathan: [00:38:27]Yeah. And you see all kinds of that. cause it happens not just in the local news side of things or basically people finding a niche based on geography, but it happens a lot with a niche based on, you know, topic or, or where like we've seen people, artists talking about very specific things and you're like, there's an audience for that.And digging like sure enough, 8,000 subscribers and 50 or a hundred thousand dollars a year in revenue. And, that's actually a good transition to talk about monetization. So you, you know, you have a, all your content is free. I don't think you have any paid content out there is that.But you monetize through ads through a job board, as, as you're looking at, or ads being sponsored content or, or, sponsorships, I should say. yeah. How do you think about monetizing your content andSahil: [00:39:19]Yeah.Nathan: [00:39:20]You played with and, and why have you settled onSahil: [00:39:22]I mean, I'd say I'm in the very early days of figuring all of this out and testing things. My operating premise has always been to never charge people for anything, like never charge people. I just, and it goes back to like, when I first started doing this and writing, it was about education and it was about giving people, empowering people with information that they otherwise wouldn't have had and making them feel happy or inspired or whatever it might be.And so that doesn't rely on me charging people for things. I think if I ever. Did something like that was going to take a ton of time. And I was going to have to spend a lot more energy or effort on it maybe, but I can't really see myself, charging people for anything. So as a result, the flip side of it is like I have all these eyeballs.I have a lot of people that this goes out to. And so sponsors are, you know, willing to kind of support that and have their product or whatever it might be, get seen by all of these people and hopefully clicked on. And, you know, I have a high burden, I would say for like the type of companies that I would work with on that.Because I just want it to be brand right. And people, you know, companies that I'm excited about or would support either way and not just. Hey, some oil and gas company wants to sponsor me, so I'm going to take it on. And so that kind of flows through both, you know, the sponsors for the newsletter, which have been great and companies I feel strongly about, and also to the job board where it's kind of a natural flow through of like I have this platform, I have all these amazing people that are, that are following me and have gifted me with their attention.A lot of whom are like looking to kind of grow and level up their life and, you know, take on new adventures. and then I had on the other side, all of these amazing companies that are trying to find those types of people and these amazing, you know, this amazing, new group of talent. And so I'm kind of sitting in the middle where like, it used to be that LinkedIn was that person sitting in the middle cause they had gathered all this demand.And so how can I dis-intermediate that? And this amazing company palette came along and it's doing it disclosure, I'm an investor in palette. I think it's an amazing company. but they kind of enabled that infrastructure. And so creators can be the kind of direct conduit between companies and between their audiences.And there's going to be a bunch of flavors of it. I mean, for me, It's kind of a large audience and I get you access to a lot of people. And it's a little bit of top of funnel marketing for the featured companies, because I tweet about them. And so you get kind of a social proof that comes with being included and that I included you on the list.But for me, it's like, I think it's a really cool thing. I mean, there've been people that have gotten jobs through the board and now that's like, wow, that's a really neat thing that I was a part of somebody who's kind of acceleration of whatever path they are on.Nathan: [00:41:55]Yeah, it's another part of the flywheel for the, I don't know, your ecosystem, your community, and all of that, where you like someone is going to go from a fan of your work to like, I don't know, a super fan of some in some way, if they got a job through, through that. And like every company is going to keep track of that.Like hiring and recruiting every person that we've ended up hiring, we know exactly where they came from. Cause we're looking for those, those trends, not that like out of 65 or a hundred people, you're seeing like massive trends, you know, or statistical significance, but you're seeing like, okay, This didn't come from a giant job board.This came from a referral or from, you know, a nice jobSahil: [00:42:34]Yep.Nathan: [00:42:35]Creator.Sahil: [00:42:35]Yeah. Yeah. That's exactly right. I mean, I think it's just like trying to figure out now, what is the model that works with these boards? Because for me, like what I want to move towards is fewer and fewer jobs on the board, but make them like really exclusive, almost like a limited edition drop every month that you have like 10 companies that like this month, I'm really going to push and promote and kind of, cause I think these roles are amazing and these companies are amazing and I want my audience to see them versus the like, you know, 200 jobs on a board and you hope people scroll through it and find the thing that they're looking for.And so I'm sort of like toying with what's the right model. What's going to drive the most eyeballs for the companies, so that it's really beneficial for them. And what's going to drive the best outcomes for my followers, where like they're finding unique jobs and getting access to things they otherwise wouldn't.The other. Great tailwind is that more and more companies are starting to believe in open access, hiring, recruiting, diversity, all of these things that I think and believe very deeply from a values perspective. And so the fact that I can create something to, further kind of progress, that trend, is really meaningful to me, just on a, from a social perspective.Nathan: [00:43:45]Yeah. Yeah, that's good. And I think that we're going to see a lot more interesting monetization methods. Like I saw people running job boards as a separate business, you know, years ago, whether it's like we work remotely or authentic jobs, or like in specific niches, like authentic jobs, for example, you know, really got going in the designer like designer and web developer, ecosystem.But now that's very much a trend of like creators running their own job board. And I mean, palette is driving that a lot. actually I guess this is one of those places where right. You're, you're providing real value as an investor. Not like the thing that we make fun of, of like, oh, how can I be helpful? it's like, you're actually running on a job board usingSahil: [00:44:32]Yeah.Nathan: [00:44:32]Advertising it,Sahil: [00:44:33]Yeah. And helping them figure out what's working, what isn't like, what could creators use more of different features? You know, frankly, they have a great growth loop. And the fact that like every time I promote a job, that's featured on my board, it's a pallet link. That's getting shared on Twitter and more and more people are seeing palette.And you're like, what is that? And that includes investors that follow me. It includes, you know, other founders that are looking to promote roles. And so, they have a cool kind of endemic little growth loop gone, and they're doing really well around it. But to your point earlier, like the sky's the limit for that type of thing, because as you can.Do more and more of like figuring out how to get to that warm lead that referral-based, the talent pool, where like people are vetted and you're kind of like really high quality leads on a certain role. the better the quality of the outcomes are going to be for the companies. And so they're working on things around that, which I think are really exciting because then you stop getting the, like, you know, you're not just going to the large mass audience, it becomes this like really curated, interesting pool of talent that you're like linking directly and that companies can have access to.So I'm just really excited about the future of like opening access to, to hiring and disrupting, you know, the, the kind of incumbents like a LinkedIn who I think have just been asleep at the wheel in that market.Nathan: [00:45:49]Yeah, there's definitely a lot of that. okay. I want to talk about something that maybe is more specific to you. you have this term creative capitalist, which I really like, I'm going to start using more because I feel like it describes, you know, a very specific type of creator, that I, I love to follow.But I'm curious with your background in, playing college sports, as, as a pitcher for Stanford, and then, what you're seeing, basically, we're going to see this wave of creator athletes. You know, now that the NCAA has made the changes where you can actually, profit from, name, image, name, image, likeness.Sahil: [00:46:30]Yep.Nathan: [00:46:32]What do you think there? And what, like, what trends do you think are going to come from that? As we have a whole new wave of creators able to.Sahil: [00:46:40]Yeah. I mean, first off, I think it's amazing. And I think it's a long time coming. I played college sports from oh nine to 13 and it was like always a topic of discussion. It has been for the last 20 plus years. I think it's way overdue. I mean, I think it's a massive disservice to a lot of athletes.It was the one time in their life that they could have made a lot of money off of a very unique skill. And then whether they got injured or it didn't pan out, I think it's a travesty that it has been this way for as long as it has. I'm glad it's finally changed. and I think it's like a classic example.You know, kind of like a regulatory disruption that unlocks a massive new market, gambling has had the same thing like sports betting, I think probably in the early days of having a similar thing as it gets legalized, but you basically just had regulation that was holding back. a huge market and now it's come, it's gone away and you have this huge inflow of talented people that have huge audiences that people feel a high degree of affinity towards.And so it's a, it's a huge inflow of new creators basically. And people that, you know, previously didn't have access to these markets until they got done with school. and the reality of a lot of them is they're not going to play professional sports. They're going to be highly, highly relevant for their handful of years that they're in college.And this is their one chance to capitalize on that. And so I think it's, I think it's great. I think there's going to be a ton of cool business model. that come up around it obviously like agents, they're probably frothing at the mouth trying to figure out how to go capture this, media studios, brand studios, all of that.I mean, I think there's just a huge unlock for a lot of these student athletes. and it's going to be cool to see how it flows. I mean, I think the general way these things will work is that it like probably over-correct where you have people spending too much on these athletes and like the market gets a little frothy and then they realize the ROI is not good.And so it kind of swings back, sort of like, you know, ad monetization on all of these social platforms. Like when they get started, people freak out and throw all the money at the like one thing and it squeezes out the return within that as always happens. And so then you kind of come down to a baseline.I imagine that happens with the athlete market.If I were still an athlete, if I had been anything, I would be all over it. and I think a lot of them should be.Nathan: [00:48:56]So going back, let's say, yeah, let's say you were an athlete today. When, when those changes were put in place, what are the things that you'd be doing? You know, what you know now about like growing an audience and monetizing on platforms and stuff like that, youSahil: [00:49:11]Yeah.Nathan: [00:49:12]What would you do?Sahil: [00:49:13]Yeah. I mean, I guess my best advice is like focus on long-term value and owned audience over just like fleeting little like brand deals and promotions. like what value I, my, my mental model around all of this has always been like value capture. if you are creating a lot of value, you should be trying to capture a decent amount of that value you're creating.And the reality of most of the. Like one-off influencer deals and things like that is you're actually creating a lot more value than you're capturing. And it's not a great mechanism for long-term value or longterm wealth creation. I think Warren buffet said when it's raining gold, you put out a bucket, not a thimble.And I always loved that quote. I think it's like very, various student and very relevant for these kids and young, young men and women that are going to be out in this market. It's like, it's raining gold right now in a lot of cases for you. but you want to make sure you're setting up infrastructure in setting yourself up in a way that allows you to capture it for the longterm and to capture a good proportion of what you're creating for the longterm.And so if that's, you know, rather than doing an influencer deal, it's like starting your own thing or having your own ownership of something. You've seen some of the tech talk influencers doing that Tik TOK creators, realizing that like equity is much more valuable to them than just taking a $10,000 put up a post, whatever it might be.Spencer rattler the quarterback for Oklahoma. It was like starting a merchandise line and it's his own thing. And he's like, I think that that is really interesting. and you're going to see a lot of cool, it's going to be a great like idea lab, which I'm just excited to be around for, to learn from, because people are going to test and learn a million different things with all of these athletes that are around, trying and seeing what works.Nathan: [00:50:55]Yeah, it's really going to be all the same principles, but you know, over again with a new, a new group of people, right? Like I wrote an article called the billion dollar creator, and it was basically about those who go from an, a specific, like how I might've had my audience by selling with a one-time thing.That would be the brand sponsorship, the other deal, you know, something like that. And instead, focusing on the ones who like really build equity in something they're starting a company, they're saying like, great. Instead of letting someone else sponsor my audience, I'm going to be the one selling that product, you know?And so it's the, like glossy is an honest company and you know, these other ones where. You know, the individual creators, likeSahil: [00:51:40]Yep.Nathan: [00:51:40]Capture all of that value rather than say like, great, I'll get paid 10,000 or a million dollars. You know what, depending on your influence level for a one-time thing.Sahil: [00:51:50]I totally agree. It's something I think about constantly too, is like, you know, as I continue to progress in this world, you know, what am I actually building equity in versus earning income around. And I think you see it, you know, like creators have figured it out. Ben Thompson, you know, with launching his passport thing where he's kind of creating a platform for people to engage and he's creating equity around it and trying to build something Patrick O'Shaughnessy, you know, with the Colossus platform and kind of being the go-to place for, for business ideas and business breakdowns and investing.I think a lot of people are doing that. I have something in the works right now with a good friend and, that we're partnering on that I think is kind of in that vein that I'm really excited about. But, it's definitely something that people should be thinking about in real time.Nathan: [00:52:33]Is that the, when, when people ask on Twitter, like what are you most excited about? And you answered the thing that I, that I can't talk about yet.Sahil: [00:52:39]Yeah. Yeah. We're close to being able to talk about it, which is exciting and it's coming soon. but we've got, a couple of people that are going to be really, really cool to be involved with on a project. it's going to be dope. I'm super excited.Nathan: [00:52:52]Nice. Yeah. I mean the biggest thing, like going back to monetization, you know, just for creators in general is really looking at what do you own long-term what do you have equity in? Right. Cause the sponsorships even, well, the job board, right? It's something that you're building equity in. Right. And so I like that.Cause it, it builds this reputation. Sponsorships are a great way to drive revenue and be more connected with companies build relationships. But like that's not a. That is just cash.Sahil: [00:53:23]Yeah,Nathan: [00:53:24]Doesn't, it doesn't build equity. And so I'm, I'm superSahil: [00:53:27]Yeah,Nathan: [00:53:28]Like this is the thing that I preach all the time when I'm talking.I guess I don't preach it publicly as much.Sahil: [00:53:32]Yeah.Nathan: [00:53:32]That I preach behind the scenes allSahil: [00:53:34]Yeah.Nathan: [00:53:34]You're talking one on one.Sahil: [00:53:35]Back to me mental models, just cause I about these things a lot, my mental model for this one is like, you kind of have there's there's two sides to your life. You kind of have like income producing activities and then wealth producing active. and the way you want to set it up, you know, like how I think about it is you need an income producing activities because you need to pay bills.Like you need to pay your mortgage or buy groceries, like car bill, all of those things. That's like you have income producing assets. Any, Delta between your kind of expenses and what you're producing from an income producing activity standpoint should be funneled into wealth producing activities. so that you're actually building wealth and equity and whatever is.And so wealth producing activities can be as simple as investing in the stock market or in whatever you're investing in. Or it can be like further along on the risk curve where you're starting a startup, you're building something you're, you know, investing in startups, you're, you know, trading in crypto, whatever it might be.It's like here, you're taking, you know, one end of the, like flywheel of your personal kind of financial ecosystem and using one end to kind of fund the other and actually build long-term equity and wealth in something. That's how I tend to think about it is like you need income producing activities and any excess that exists on that side and people should strive.I think, to live within their means any excess is, you know, used and funneled into wealth, producing active.Nathan: [00:54:54]Yeah.

Tao Te Ching Verse 70translated by Bruce R. LinnellMy words are very easy to understand,Very easy to practice.But there is no one in the world who can understand them,There is no one who can practice them. My words possess a lineage,My duties possess a ruler. Now : only because I am without-knowledge,Thus I am not understood.Those who understand me are rare,Consequently I am one who is valued! Thus the sage wears coarse cloth, but carries jade in her Heart.Photo by 五玄土 ORIENTO on UnsplashThe Return to HarmonyHow would you describe the color red to a person who might be born without sight? Here you are, around colors your whole life, watching them mix to create new colors, playing around with them, and you are trying to describe what sensation you get when you see the color red to someone who simply doesn’t know.Lao Tzu says that his teachings are easy to understand and easy to practice - like our ability to experience things. In Harmony with the Tao, Lao Tzu practices the Way - which when you’re in it, in flow, you get it. Maybe like a dream? When you're in the dream, things just seem to make sense, whether they’re logical or not. That male person who is embodying my mother and who is popping wheelies in a car over there? That all makes sense - at the time. But then I open my eyes and try to make sense of it, or even more challenging, try to explain it to someone else, and well, yeah. Not happening.So yes, easy to understand and easy to practice - if you get it. Which is why I feel he says that even though they’re easy, no one can understand and no one can practice. The Tao is something that you just have to ‘get,’ isn’t it?Well that’s not fair, I might say. How is it that the Tao is available to everyone and yet I can’t get it if I don’t get it? Well. on the surface, it would appear that all doors are locked, wouldn’t it? Like if I’m not plugged into the Tao, I’m basically talking about something that might as well be a dream, or an imperceptible color.I guess it’s a good thing that the Tao is always giving. All I need to experience just a tiny bit is a little bit of the opposite of what I’ve got between my two ears in the beginning. For me, and most of the time, I had habits of shutting out the Tao - they just developed as my sense of self did. You know, fear, anger, embarrassment, guilt, shame. Those things. But when I started looking in the opposite direction of those things, the Tao suddenly unlocked its doors and I was able to enter. Actually, I think it was me who unlocked those doors from the inside - the Tao did nothing except remain available. By practicing compassion, contentment, and humility - the three treasures - I am able to access the Tao. What seemed inaccessible before now becomes something I’ve always been able to get. Like Dorothy’s red slippers, I have with me the ability to travel home any time I want by concentrating on practicing the three treasures.So, easy to practice and easy to understand? You bet! When I am of the world and concentrating on my worldly stuff and giving attention to all the ego-feeding desires I have? It’s pretty much impossible for me to access the Tao when I am 100% invested in that stuff. Thankfully, I’ve got tools like natural compassion, contentment and humility that I can tap into at any time to offset those things and return to Harmony.

Rodger Dean Duncan has been advisor to United States presidential cabinet officers in two administrations and to top business leaders in multiple industries. He’s author of several books including the award-winning, bestselling CHANGE-friendly LEADERSHIP, and co-author of Leadership for Saints. He also writes a regular leadership column for Forbes.com, a platform that reaches about 75 million readers each month. A descendant of 19th-century Baptist evangelists and a convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he has served as bishop (three times), stake president, high councilor, and stake mission president. Today he is patriarch of the Liberty Missouri Stake and a sealer in the Kansas City Missouri Temple. In the early 1980s he served on the advisory council that first recommended that “Another Testament of Jesus Christ” be added as subtitle to The Book of Mormon. He is a father of four and grandfather to twelve. Highlights 04:05 How Duncan came to coauthor the book, Leadership for Saints, with Ed J. Pinegar 07:14 Much book content came from training meetings produced as a stake president and articles he wrote. 09:25 His conversion story: At the lockers after a lesson on the “Mormon trekkers”, a cute high-school classmate asked, “Would you like to know more?” 11:30 Techniques and models of leadership from impactful leader-mentors: A Waco, Texas bishop told him, “This morning, you failed the Lord…”, blessing his entire life. 14:55 Reproving with sharpness means with clarity, not harshness. 15:52 Train leaders and future leaders whenever you can. 17:49 Sources of Duncan’s passion for studying leadership include serving in student government and working as a political, business, and investigative journalist. 18:35 Young editor, Jim Lehrer, taught him to look at the gap between what a leader aspires to and what is accomplished. 19:41 Jim Lehrer also taught effective listening as an investigative reporter: “Count to five silently.” This leads to elaboration, new directions, and psychological space for self discovery. 23:52 He worked as a consultant to cabinet officers in two White House administrations, a laboratory for both effective and dysfunctional leadership behavior. 24:35 Paths at Purdue: After earning a PhD in Organizational Behavior at Purdue, a young man who heard him talk at BYU decided to follow his path at Purdue: his name? David A. Bednar. 25:49 Premortal memories: Experts may unknowingly teach gospel principles: premortal memories can translate into mortal teachings. 27:56 Councils: Therefore, now what? In the early 80s, he served on an advisory council that reported to the First Presidency. Their roll-up-your sleeves work sessions included George and Lenore Romney, Gordon Jump, Gordon B. Hinckley, Neal L. Maxwell, Bruce R. McConkie, Boyd K. Packer, and others. For example, one thing that came out of these included the recommendation to add a subtitle to the Book of Mormon (Another Testament of Jesus Christ). At the end of these varied discussions, Boyd K. Packer would simply say, “Therefore, now what?” to invite the council to seek what course of action they should take. 31:20 Councils are for counseling together. Make it safe for everybody in the room to offer an opinion. It’s foolhardy for a leader to try to take charge of everything and make all decisions. 32:11 One primary responsibility of a leader is not to create more followers but rather more leaders. The renewed emphasis to teach the gospel in the home requires a higher level of leadership in the home. 33:07 Three Time Zones: When you make a decision as a council or an individual, you should think in terms of time travel through three different time zones: (1) How will a particular decision square with the past? Decisions made and covenants made in the past? Expectations expressed by others? (2) How will a potential decision square with needs in the present? (3) How will that decision bless people in the future...
