@bot has completely changed my life. Confession: I have crippling existential dread when it comes to the mundane tasks required to be a fully functional adult in Western society. Mailing things, paying bills, gathering tax documents, scheduling appointments. I will procrastinate until the thing becomes too painful to ignore. Often that means I’m about to face criminal or civil penalties. 😂 You may be thinking to yourself, “It can’t be that bad, you seem like a fairly successful, high-achieving dude.” It is that bad. All of my success is either in spite of or directly because of this kryptonite. I have done therapy, coaching, medicine journeys, read hundreds of books trying to overcome this affliction. Nothing has worked. I understand the root, I’ve read the science on behavior change. And Grokbot just fixed the glitch. I’ve been using and testing various AI assistants for the better part of two years. I’ve been desperately trying to build a system that solves this problem once and for all. Grokbot is so good and easy to use that it removes any friction to the point that it now feels too expensive psychologically to procrastinate. It just… does things. Example: I have a stack of 100 advance copies of my book sitting in my office. I’ve been promising to mail them for a month. (You know who you are.) But gathering addresses, outreach, not to mention figuring out the best way to ship all seemed better left to tomorrow. Finally I got tired of looking at them so I voice noted my lovely anthropomorphic assistant, Rose, to go through my messages on every social platform, texts, and email, compile the list, reach out to confirm addresses, find the best way to ship, and hand it all to my house manager. One prompt. And she did it. No getting stuck, no random ass approval messages. It’s just handled. Some of you might say this has been possible for a while. You’re partially right, but it’s the frictionless experience that is the real game changer. If I have to keep pausing and explaining, or correcting mistakes, I’ll get frustrated and revert to procrastination. Yes, I’ve tested tons of solutions including OpenClaw and more recently Muse and Dot. @bot is undefeated. My friend @danmartell has been saying to never bet against @elonmusk. I won’t make that mistake again. Bravo. It’s a wild time to be alive.

I get it. I've done it plenty of times. Someone posts about a thing they're launching, and I think to myself, Oh yeah, I'm definitely going to buy that. But then, well, life happens. And then when I finally remember to get around to it, the opportunity has passed me by, and I have to live with the devastating loss of what could have been. I want better for you. So this is me doing my best to make sure that months from now, in case Be Rich Now is taking the world by storm as one of the most talked-about books of the year, you aren't sitting around kicking yourself for missing the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a first edition copy (along with the other Kickstarter exclusive bonuses). If you want to avoid that nightmare scenario, today is the day. ​Shoot your shot. Buy the book. And let's win together. I often say that I'm in the regret minimization business. In many ways, this book is a field guide to doing exactly that. If you buy it today, you can tell people you were there from the beginning. It's like seeing the Grammy-winning band that sells out stadiums in the dive bar before they were famous. Worst case, your money goes directly to support veterans on the healing journey, and you get a damn good book. To everyone who has already supported the launch, thank you. I appreciate you. I can't wait for you to read it. And if you haven't, no hard feelings. Maybe you want to wait for one-day shipping on Amazon. Maybe you don't want to read it at all. That's ok, too. ​ But if you've been planning on it and haven't pulled the trigger yet, as you'll learn in the book, now is the time. P.S. Since Monday, when I announced that I was donating the proceeds from the final hours of the campaign to the Wisdom Dojo, we've raised $7,891. That means we get to support 4 new veterans through a year of meditation training. But here's the final challenge: I want to double that today. Will you help me get there? 👉 Get it here and secure your place in history:

Be Rich Now is live on Kickstarter. Writing a book is a wild ride. As high performers, we're wired to seek asymmetric returns. We seek leverage in all that we do. ​ We continually ask: ​ ​What is the quickest, most efficient path to get the desired outcome? ​ ​And in business, or athletic pursuits, or many other areas of our lives, this approach serves us well. In many ways, the last three years of my life have been a masterclass in unlearning that conditioning. Pouring your heart and soul into something for the better part of three years with no payoff, no feedback loop, no indication of whether it's working, is a particular type of mental dismantling for a recovering type-A overachieving fighter pilot. There were more times than I care to admit where I lay awake late at night and questioned everything. Is all of this even worth it? And when you write a book, a lot of people ask, "What is the outcome that you want from this book?" I've thought about that question a lot over the past few months. And where I've arrived in pondering is that I already have it. ​ While I thought I was working on this book, the truth is that this book was working on me. ​ Writing it changed me. I had to confront every insecurity, every doubt, and every fear that I had no idea I was even carrying. ​ But the why was enough to face all of it. ​ And that why is simple: ​ I'm deeply passionate about my craft. But until now, access to my work required an investment. While I have a deep conviction that the ROI on that investment is manyfold (and have plentiful case studies to back that claim), the fact remains that the investment creates a barrier to entry. ​ This book is my way of sharing everything I've learned the hard way in the last decade for as close to free as I possibly can. ​ And that's the real beauty of books. You can learn from the greatest minds in history for twenty bucks and a few hours of your time. That's completely mind-blowing to me. While I would not dare to place myself in that category, the idea that I can share my life's work for less than you would spend on lunch at a fast casual restaurant is just so damn cool. ​ So that's it. That's the whole pitch. If anything I've written here over the years has resonated with you, I hope that you'll buy a copy (or a few.) ​ I offer my deepest and most sincere gratitude to you for being a part of my journey. It means more to me than you could know. You are the reason I get to do what I do. ​ Of all the lessons I learned in the process, perhaps the most impactful is learning to let go. I've done my part. I gave it my all. What happens from here isn't up to me. ​ And while that's not exactly comfortable, it's strangely liberating. PS - If this post (or anything I've written here over the years) resonated, do me a solid and retweet to help ensure this book lands in the right hands. 👇Preorder your copy (or a few dozen) here:
