On my 4 hour flight, I opened Gemini, ChatGPT, and Deepseek. Then, I entered the SAME EXACT PROMPT into each LLM. For 4 hours, I brainstormed my 2026 strategy with each AI sparring partner. They grilled me hard, demanding data when I made assumptions. By the end, I had CLARITY, which is priceless!

Hi all. Are there any other authors and/or screenwriters here? I'm looking for social media marketing knowledge to sell my books and advertise my shows. I need to build a platform in the quickly-changing entertainment field. I'm also interested in using AI to help me organize my thoughts/different versions and drafts of my work as I'm choosing which one to go with. I do not want to use AI to write creative content. I want to use it like a personal assistant and marketing expert. I'm looking forward to learning.

We all have different lives, so each step in using AI is progression. AI should help us, not pressurise us - let’s see how society evolves over the next few years. Any predictions? Any hopes or fears we should consider as a society? Could WE shape that future?

Most people start to coast this time of year. They tell themselves they’ll get serious again in January, that they’ve earned the break. But the truth is, how you finish this year determines how you start the next. Momentum doesn’t magically appear on January 1st. It’s built right now, in the moments when no one’s watching and everyone else is slowing down. The way you show up in these final weeks says everything about the kind of year you’re creating ahead. Because anyone can start strong, but few have the grit to finish stronger. So while others are taking their foot off the gas, you double down. You sharpen your focus. You look for leverage, the tools, systems, and strategies that multiply your results without multiplying your effort. Because winning isn’t about working harder anymore. It’s about finding your unfair advantage. So let me ask you this: What’s the one thing you can commit to finishing in these final weeks that will set you up for a powerful new year?

One of the biggest advantages you can build in life isn’t more information. It’s adaptability. Not the dramatic kind. The disciplined kind. The kind that comes from being willing to look at what’s actually working… and what isn’t… without making it mean anything about you. Most people don’t get stuck because they’re incapable. They get stuck because they’re loyal to an old version of themselves. Old rules. Old patterns. Old ways of operating that once served them well. And here’s where it gets tricky. Resistance loves rigidity. It tells you that staying the same is integrity. That changing course means you failed. That letting go means you’re giving up. But adaptability isn’t quitting. It’s professionalism. It’s the ability to face reality as it is today and make a clean decision from there. No drama. No self-judgment. Just honesty and action. Growth doesn’t always ask you to push harder. Sometimes it asks you to release what no longer fits and keep moving. The people who grow aren’t the ones forcing the next step. They’re the ones willing to learn, unlearn, and choose again without turning evolution into a personal indictment. The future doesn’t belong to the most rigid. It belongs to the people who stay open and keep showing up. So my question for you today... where might Resistance be asking you to cling instead of adapt?
