Look around you.
Everything you see inside your home came from somebody’s imagination first.
The only things that didn’t come from a Human’s imagination are almost everything in nature .
Almost because some have come from a Human’s imagination and have been modified in some way from nature.
But imagination, on its own, isn’t any use at all because without action, it would all stay imaginary.
It’s only fraudsters who try to fool people that something imaginary has substance, like cryptocurrencies, or royalty who get convinced that a particular cloth can only be seen by intelligent people.
So, imagination is crucially important , but it can also be misused, and we are seeing a lot of that at the moment.
Just because you imagine something doesn’t make it true .
Sometimes imagination is just fantasy, and will remain so regardless of how many others join your fantasy.
That doesn’t negate the value of imagination; it does mean that you need to validate your imagination with facts and reality.
When everything checks out, then you can turn your imagination into a reality through the activity that leads to it.
The best way to put your imagination to good use is to look at successful products and imagine how they could be made better or combined with a different product to create something different.

There are several things to enjoy about the Tour de France.
The scenery is always worth watching go past.
The age of some of the castles and where they’re built is always amazing for me.
How they hauled all of that stone to the top of the hills and mountains is fascinating, and must have taken ages.
The skill of the builders impresses me because these things are still standing after centuries.
Sure, some of them are ruins, but some of them are not.
Then there are the mountains themselves.
Australia is a relatively flat country; although it has some mountains, they are not particularly high by global standards.
Of course, the whole point of the race is the cyclists themselves.
The team tactics, the crashes, and the power of these young men make for a scintillating couple of hours.
It’s not just because I’m a cyclist myself, I have been watching this long before I got my first bicycle, but it is certainly more interesting now.
Well, what can we learn from this?
You have to take some risks to win.
You can’t win without a team supporting you , although sometimes you have to go alone.
There will always be challenges and mistakes.
Success comes to those who make the fewest mistakes , or the ones that impact the result the least.
Winning a stage can be great, but that doesn’t always translate to a better overall result.
Consistency beats short bursts of brilliance.
There’s probably more than could be extracted, but I think that’s enough from me.
Let me know what you think.

It is also the most egalitarian place to make a great income .
Unfortunately, many people in that industry don’t recognise where their income comes from.
That’s because they think they are being paid for their skills, but they’re not.
I’m talking about sports people here.
A highly skilled and entertaining athlete in the darts niche is unlikely to be paid the same as a mid-level professional soccer player.
The reason has to do with the fan base and the cost of TV rights.
The more popular the sport, the more money there is to pay the players.
Similarly, actors are paid based on their personal fan base, not the total fan base for movies.
Then we cannot forget writers .
It’s possible to make a good living without being a well-known author, but the income gap between those at the top and the rest can be massive .
However, it’s all about entertainment.
People pay to be entertained.
That could be reading, watching movies, going to sporting events, etc., but it’s all entertainment.
There is a message in this for me and you.
Be more entertaining.
You can still provide value, but it needs to be entertaining, at least some times.

Now, this isn’t a prompt for writing the book or whatever.
What it does is create a scaffold for writing what you want.
So, copy paste this, edit to suit your needs and see what happens.
Please write a book outline with a title, subtitle, and description on the subject of running a profitable dairy farm. Write in the style of an American farmer. Please cover the daily routine.
This is what I got from ChatGPT:-
Sure! Here’s a book outline written in the style and voice of an experienced American dairy farmer—practical, plainspoken, and packed with real-world insights.
📘 Title: Milk Money: How to Run a Profitable Dairy Farm Without Losing Your Shirt
🧢 Subtitle: Hard-Earned Lessons from a Life of Early Mornings, Muddy Boots, and Moo-La
📝 Book Description: This ain’t no shiny brochure from the government or a textbook from some ag college. This is the real deal—straight from a boots-on-the-ground dairy farmer who’s been through droughts, floods, mastitis outbreaks, and milk price crashes and still came out ahead.
“Milk Money” lays out how to build and run a dairy farm that actually turns a profit—and still lets you get a little sleep and maybe take your spouse out to dinner now and then. We’ll walk through what a real day looks like on the farm, how to make the books work, when to invest, and when to hunker down. From managing your herd to dealing with the milk truck guy, this book covers it all, no bull.
Whether you’re just dreaming about owning a few Holsteins or you’re already knee-deep in manure and need to find your way out of the red, this book will help you work smarter, not just harder.

🪶 Tone & Style:
Friendly, plainspoken, with a few jokes and sayings thrown in like any good front porch conversation
Honest about the hard stuff, but always hopeful
Written for folks who respect hard work and want to do things right
Would you like me to start drafting a sample chapter or the daily routine section in full next?
Now, what I would do with this is paste it into Claude and start working on each chapter.
Get Claude to write the chapter, then edit it to make it better .
But, you could also paste it into something like Word, Google Docs, etc. and fill in the details yourself.
Using AI to help you isn’t cheating, nor is it producing low-value content.
It can, and some people are bone lazy.
They will fill platforms with crap, but the platform owners are fighting back.
They will trash anything that doesn’t provide value to their customers.
How you use it is up to you of course, but working from a framework makes sense to me, and you can change things around, delete sections, add more, but you will have something to work with.
Enjoy the output from the prompt.

We had three grandies with us today.
The usual 2-year-old plus two cousins due to a Student Free Day at their school.
As is normal, I was doing some simple things on my computer because thinking isn’t an option when there are three little girls running around.
However, the eldest one is a budding author, at 10.
She’s already shown me books she’s written, and she loves reading.
Reading is great training for writing .
The two older girls were sitting on the arms of my chair and providing prompts for ChatGPT to make images from.
I told them to come up with an image prompt and I’d get a T-Shirt made for them.
We have two T-Shirts coming.
The 10-year-old then spotted me checking the stats on my Amazon books, and asked if she could put some books up.
Now she knows what she needs to do to get started, and I’ve promised to help.
She may be the first person at her school to be a published author.
If a 10-year-old can see the potential of self-publishing and is prepared to slowly type out the story she’s hand written, do you think you could?
Admittedly, she’s not thinking of money, just getting a book published.
For your first one that’s probably the right goal.
Get something done.
Regards, Brent.
P.S. The book is approved.

We all know that the AI tools are liable to lie, totally make stuff up, and hallucinate .
They also can get all sorts of great information for you, but this method I’ve found works extremely well and uses the AI tools propensity to fake it.
Have you guessed?
Writing humorous fiction.
The more absurd the better.
Tell it to make things Pythonesque and you get great output.
Not ridiculous enough, ask it to pour it on .
I’ve just finished putting together a three book series on fake case studies.
For those I used Abacus.ai, it did a great job, but couldn’t manage the book covers.
I got ChatGPT 4o to do those for me.
Then I asked Claude to write a fake self-help book for me.
It did a brilliant job.
It reads like so many self-help books you see, but the concept of what you have to do to attain success is totally outlandish.
Again, ChatGPT 4o made the images, but I asked Claude to write the prompt for ChatGPT.
Claude writes better long-form content than ChatGPT, but Chatty does better images.
I can’t give you a link to the case studies yet because Amazon hasn’t finished processing, but there will be a link later.
Have a play, see what they can do.

There are pros and cons with subscriptions.

There are pros and cons with subscriptions.
For marketers and subscribers.
For marketers they’re a great thing because you can get an ongoing cash flow, but they also demand that you keep providing sufficient value to retain the subscribers.
For subscribers they are often a less expensive way to get access to products and there is some surety that the products will be improved and upgraded because the vendor is getting regular income.
The downside for subscribers is when they stop using a product, but fail to stop paying for it.
To be honest I’d rather be paying a subscription than a lifetime lump sum, even if I only use the product occasionally.
I see better value in that for me, buit there are many people who will disagree with me.
The challenge is to decide which subscriptions you don’t need any longer.
Some of them are extremely difficult to cancel , which I find very offensive.
That’s why 90% of my subscriptions go through PayPal rather than my credit card.
Yes, it does cost me a little more, but when I comes to cancelling, it’s a breeze .
How do you handle that?

The crux of the email was to simplify what you’re doing to get traffic.

The crux of the email was to simplify what you’re doing to get traffic.
It went like this:-
Use the Rule of Three to build traffic first.
Do three things at the same time:
Make short videos for YT, TikTok, & FB.
Write content for blog, blogger, medium.
Repurpose content to PDF reports for Scribd, DocShare, Issue, SlideShare.
The question was “Do I do 1 from each of those three things, or the three things in one of those?”.
That’s a good question, and the answer is perhaps .
Not a particularly helpful answer so let me explain.
If you write a blog post as your first step you can either repost it on other platforms, or make a PDF to share plus use the post or a summary as the script for a video.
Repurposing the content is one way to increase your reach, but that can be on the same type of platform or different ones.
What the method really does is increase your chance of finding people interested in what you do.
You’ll have to test to find out where your target audience is hanging out and what type of content they want to consume.
Once you know that marketing becomes much easier because you can identify what they want and sell it to them.
I hope that makes sense, if not please ask.

It’s part of the game of marketing that not everything you do will work.
Sometimes you can make it work, and sometimes you have to abandon something that cannot be made to work.
It’s the same with relationships.
Those of you in long-term relationships probably are not with the same person you first went out with.
You didn’t get the first job you applied for, or bought the first house you looked at.
This is an alternative approach to marketing.

Lazy + Greedy = Stupid.
These are the people who force Google, YouTube, etc. to change their algorithms to get rid of the spam.
Of course they then complain about how their incomes have been trashed.
There’ve been the Made for Adsense sites that effectively had spun content but good keywords in the right places to get high paying adsense ads .
Then there were doorway pages, also spun content that all pointed to the same page to ramp up the traffic.
Who could forget the Private Blog Networks, ot the linking schemes to game the system?
Anyway, the point is that people have been making long, stupid, repetitive AI faceless videos to get traffic and adsense payouts.
YouTube have changed their algorithm to root out and shut down channels filled with anything that is repetitive, spammy, of low value .
That does not mean that you can’t use AI tools to make videos.
It’s not the AI they’re concerned about, it’s the junk content regardless of whether you used AI or not.
That makes me happy because my circumstances don’t allow me to use a microphone, the background noise is always there.
My only option would be to go for a drive and record in the car.
The AI voice generation tool I use is https://aws.amazon.com/polly/pricing/ because it’s well priced and does a brilliant job.
What do you use?
