Scrolled past this chart last week and went down a black hole. It's from a book called Bitcoin One Million. It predicts when AI replaces entire professions. Doctors. Lawyers. Coders. Teachers. Surgeons. All on a timeline. I'm not attached to the dates. Could be off by a decade. That's not the point. The question I keep sitting with: what are the odds the direction is right? Gary Keller once quoted Andy Grove in a mastermind: complacency is what kills great organizations. You don't lose because you saw the wave coming. You lose because you convinced yourself it wasn't real. Same energy here. If there's a 60-70% chance AI reshapes most of what we call "work" within our lifetime, the rational move is to prepare now. Even if the dates are wrong. The harder question isn't economic. It's human. What happens to a person's sense of meaning when their job disappears? I've always kept thoughts like this in my journal. Starting to share them out loud. If you want to read where this one went, I published the full piece on Substack over the weekend. → https://open.substack.com/pub/shoney/p/when-work-disappears When you look at a chart like this, what's your honest first reaction?

What makes building a digital twin possible isn’t AI. It’s a lifetime of documentation. Books, principles, journals, decisions, mistakes. I’ve heard Ray speak a few times while at Tony Robbins masterminds, and what stands out every time is how clearly he thinks. That clarity didn’t happen by accident. It came from years of writing things down and refining his thinking. Here's where it gets interesting. If you document well enough, your thinking doesn't have to die with you. Your great-great-grandkids could have a conversation with you. Not a photo album or a letter. An actual exchange. Generations that would have been forgotten could pass on their learnings, ideas, and memories in a way that's never been possible. But it all starts with the documentation. I used to journal constantly. Lessons learned, ideas, what worked, what didn't. Somewhere along the way, I drifted from the habit. I'm picking it back up in 2026. In a world where AI handles more of the doing, your ability to think becomes the real leverage.

"AI is the biggest technical thing ever in my lifetime. I mean, it is so profound and therefore its influence is hard to overstate."

The whole point of mastering AI and Leverage is to buy back time. Don’t forget to spend it on what matters most.

Two truths to think about…
