Let's break it down in detail:\nThe Problem with \"This happened, then this happened...\":\nThis linear, chronological way of telling stories is often referred to as \"episodic\" storytelling. It's a common pitfall for novice writers and can lead to boring, disjointed narratives. When stories are told this way, they lack a sense of causality and purpose. Each event feels isolated and disconnected from the others, making it difficult for the audience to remain engaged or understand the significance of what's happening.\nThe Solution: \"This happened, but then that happened, therefore this happened\":\nThis structure introduces three key elements that create a more compelling narrative:\na) \"This happened\": Establishes the initial situation or event. b) \"But then\": Introduces a complication, conflict, or unexpected turn of events. c) \"Therefore\": Shows the consequence or result of the previous events.\nThis structure creates a chain of cause and effect, where each event directly influences what comes next. It adds depth, complexity, and logical progression to the story.\nCreating Causation Between Story Beats:\nThe heart of this storytelling technique is establishing clear causal relationships between different parts of your story. Here's how it works:\na) Each event should have a direct impact on what follows. b) Characters' decisions and actions should drive the plot forward. c) Consequences of these actions should be clear and logical. d) The audience should understand why things are happening, not just what is happening.\nBenefits of This Approach:\nEngagement: It keeps the audience invested by constantly raising questions and providing answers.\nCoherence: The story feels more unified and purposeful.\nCharacter Development: Characters' choices have clear consequences, allowing for deeper character arcs.\nPacing: It naturally creates a sense of momentum and progression.\nMemorability: Causal chains are easier for the audience to remember and understand.\nExample:\nPoor structure: \"The character went to the store. Then they met a friend. Then they went home.\"\nImproved structure: \"The character went to the store, but then they met an old friend they'd been avoiding, therefore they rushed home without buying what they needed.\"\nIn this improved version, each event directly causes or influences the next, creating a more interesting and cohesive narrative.\nApplying This in Practice:\nWhen outlining your story, constantly ask yourself \"Why?\" and \"So what?\" for each event.\nLook for opportunities to create unexpected turns (\"but then\") that challenge your characters.\nEnsure that character decisions have clear, logical consequences (\"therefore\").\nIf you can remove a scene without affecting the overall story, it might not be causally linked enough.\nBy following this structure, writers can create more engaging, logical, and impactful stories that keep the audience invested from beginning to end.

As well as his individual values - the core philosophical principles he finds important.\n\nFor example, one creator may paint a picture of a Dystopian world - and the meaninglessness of everything.\n\nAnother, may fill you with hope in finding your soul-mate, simply because he believes that is possible.\n\nOr another, may share a story of the difficulties of the journey to happiness, but despite the challenge, believe that conquering your dreams is possible. (Like in the movie 'The Pursuit of Happiness').\n\nEvery story or piece of content has values-charged in the events, dialogue, and images. \n\nThat's why it's fairly simple for the viewer to adopt the beliefs and values of the story he has just consumed.\n\nSince the dawn of human civilization, our ancestors have been passing down values and beliefs in stories. \n\nThe story of Troy \u0026 Achilles, tells the tale of heroism, bravery, \u0026 glory. And makes you adopt the belief that despite facing death, you must fight for these values.\n\nThe story of Odysseus, tells the story of prudence, rational, and perseverance. And that even if you haven't seen your family for 19 years, just keep searching for your way home.\n\nThe stories in the Bible, Quran, \u0026 other religious texts have passed down stories that shape the beliefs and values of billions of people over the previous centuries. \n\nOver time, stories have altered, reinforced, or introduced many new beliefs and values.\n\nBut in order to accomplish your #1 goal with your content, which is to help your customer adopt a new core belief: This new opportunity is key to the prospect's desires and its only attainable with my unique mechanism\n\nIn order to get the customer to accept your belief, you have to tell a story in a specific way.\n\nOnly by telling the story in this specific way can you get your customer to accept the core-belief of your marketing content, which will get him to emotionally and logically justify buying your product.\n\nBut how do you do that? \n\nYou do it by using the 'Hero's Epiphany Framework.'\n\nThe structure is really simple.\n\n- Backstory\n- Adventure\n- Epiphany \n\nBy following this structure in your content, you can get your customer to adopt a new belief, and buy your product.\n\nThis framework is loosely a combination of the ‘Hero’s Journey’ framework by Joseph Campbell and the ‘Epiphany Bridge’ Script by Russell Brunson.\n\nWe are self-interested creatures. When we watch a piece of content, we are constantly searching for ways to benefit ourselves.\n\nWhen we watch stories, we view the stories from our perspective \u0026 world. \n\nThe stories that we love the most are the ones that are most familiar to us. \n\nThat’s why when you’re telling a story online, it’s important to create a Hero that your audience will resonate with. \n\nAt the beginning of the story, the current situation of the Hero is aligned with the prospect’s existing situation. \n\nAnd the ending situation of the Hero is aligned with the prospect’s desired situation. \n\nIt means that the prospect builds rapport and understanding with the Hero, speaker, character in the content, based on his low situation. But sticks around because he wants to achieve the Hero’s final situation.\n\nThat’s why we follow influencers, athletes, and heroes.

Identify your customer's current pain points or challenges (backstory).\n2. Create a hero that resonates with these pain points (rapport building).\n3. Take the hero on an adventure or journey, creating tension and conflict.\n4. Reach an epiphany moment where the hero gains new insight or perspective.\n5.

So if someone wants to teach the 5 steps to learning guitar, he can tell a story about how he didn't know how to play. Telling this story before the actual VALUE part of the script/content creates emotional context for the acceptance of a new unique mechanism (will reveal this element soon) and the value. Otherwise, people have existing limiting beliefs that hold them back from learning new things, and the best way to break those limiting beliefs is telling short stories of the creator being in the shoes of the viewer, before figuring out the new thing, or the education material being taught in the video, or the solution/product/resource being offered.

Here you are setting the scene. You are describing the Hero's everyday world that he wants to get out of. \n\nIt's important to give the Hero a goal, a desire that he wants to attain. \n\nWe wouldn't want to watch a story if we didn't know what the Hero desired.\n\nAn easy way to do this is by saying \"I always wanted clear skin. That's what I wanted more than anything.\"\n\n\"I thought that my dreams of traveling the world would never come true.\"\n\n\"I was experiencing the same day over and over again, where I was tired and unfocused. But I desired laser productivity more than anything.\"\n\nBut if it was easy for the Hero to attain the goal, we wouldn’t want to watch the story. \n\nSuch as, if it was easy for Luke Skywalker to defeat Darth Vader, we wouldn’t be interested in how he does it.\n\nSo why is it difficult for us to attain our desires? \n\nIt’s because there’s something holding us back. \n\nWe are feeling a certain way about the world. And no, we don’t feel that calmness, despite desiring it with all of our hearts. That’s because there’s negatively charged values that are holding us back. \n\nIn explaining the Backstory \u0026 Negative world of our viewer (Hero) \n\nWe answer a question in the prospect’s mind: “What’s holding me back?”\n\nIt's important about the negatively charged values of being stuck in the \"regular world.\" \n\nYou see, every value has a negative charge and positive charge.\n\nSlavery \u0026 Freedom.\nStressed. Calm.\nSick. Healthy.\nOverweight. In Shape.\nDepressed. Happy.\nLethargic. Focused.\nOn the verge of giving up. Never give up.\n\nIn the backstory, it's important to stress the negatively charged values of the desires of your prospect. This way, you are directly entering their mind. And building strong rapport and connection, by acknowledging the pain that goes on in their mind. \n\nThis is why we love Rocky. Because every single one of us resonates with the \"bum\" version of Rock, who had wasted all of his talent, and didn't believe in himself. \n\nOr Hunger Games.

According to psychological studies, any group of humans will sort themselves into us/them groups within seconds, almost without any reason.\n\nNobody is immune to this need to be a part of a group. Our ancestors evolved in challenging environments against rival groups.\n\nHaving a common enemy is powerful. Studies show it releases oxytocin, increasing the sense of belonging.\n\nBut in order to find an effective enemy, you must understand the prospect \u0026 leverage existing limiting beliefs.\n\nEveryone has the itch to be in a group, it’s a part of our wiring from the times we had to use them to survive. Getting them into our “group” is great long term. we just need to convince them we’re the better team and they’re better off with us (our products and lifestyle)\n\nIn the anti-aging supplement niche, a lot of prospects already believe prescription costs are out of control. Naturally, it’s common to set up greedy pharmaceutical companies as the enemy.\n\nBy creating a story for your hero to try these alternative solutions and face failure, pain, and frustration. You are subconsciously telling the prospect that the reason why they haven't seen success is because they haven't tried your solution. \n\nAnd you're answering this question in the prospect's mind:\n\n\"Who or what is to blame?”\n\nPeople will do anything for those who encourage their dreams, justify their failures, allay their fears, confirm their suspicions and help them throw rocks at their enemies.\n\nPeople are looking for someone to take responsibility off their shoulders. To tell them they are not responsible for their lot in life.\n\nAnd while accepting responsibility is essential for gaining control of one’s own life, assuring others they are NOT responsible is essential for gaining influence over theirs.\n\nIn general, people don’t want to take responsibility for their failures. If you want to sell more, you need to justify their failures. \n\nBy creating villains in your marketing…\n\nYou are shifting the burden of responsibility from your customer’s shoulders onto the enemies you created...\n\nBut you’re also subconsciously saying…\n\nThe reason why your prospect failed is because they haven’t tried your new opportunity!\n\nConsequently, you can blame villains and criticize them for not giving you the “new opportunity.”\n\nThat's because the purpose of this question is to justify your prospect failure by revealing the REAL PROBLEM. \n\nYes, the prospect tried numerous similar products in the past. \n\nBut the REAL reason why those or products they’ve tried in the past have not worked is because those products didn’t fulfill your new opportunity!\n\n**Reserve engineer opportunity**\n\nOpportunity: Using mushrooms to remove inflammation\n\nReverse-Opportunity: “The real problem is that your body \u0026 brain is undergoing inflammation, which triggers an immune response to put your body into fight or flight mode. When your brain \u0026 body try to function normally, it can’t! And so you feel depression, anxiety, \u0026 stress.”\n\nVillain: “And what’s frustrating, is that the pharmaceutical industry WANTS you to be inflamed, so that you can keep buying their products.”\n\nSee how simple this can be? It’s simple, but very powerful. You’re telling your customers the reason why they failed in the past is that all the solutions they tried never addressed the **REAL** problem. But now, there’s finally a NEW OPPORTUNITY, a new solution that addresses the real problem.\n\nHere’s another example…\n\nOpportunity: Increase your testosterone by removing bad bacteria from your gut \n\nReverse-Opportunity: “If you’re working out and eating healthy, but you’re struggling to get into shape… It's not your fault. Your testosterone levels are low and you have bad bacteria in your gut.”\n\nVillain: “The food-industry keeps you eating processed foods that fill your gut with bad bacteria, lower your testosterone, and keep you buying foods that keep you stuck!”\n\nSee how it works? You’re revealing the real problem, a problem that can be solved only by your new mechanism.\n\nOne more example..\n\n“If you haven’t seen better sleep \u0026 well-being with other supplements in the past… it’s NOT your fault.\n\nThat’s because all other ingredients on earth I’m aware of are sourced from dangerous supplements or artificial “painkiller” drugs that could end up killing you - look what happened to Michael Jackson.\n\nThey only offer a brief temporary \u0026 unhealthy solution that has countless harmful symptoms…\n\nAnd by the time the negative effects start catching up to you, your brain’s not able to shut off on its own. And the inflammation continues to keep you feeling wide awake at night \u0026 stressed - like a caged monkey - during the day…\n\nBut you see, this secret set of pure organic mushrooms you’re about to see is totally different…\n\nIt’s a brand new way of achieving maximum sleep, well-being, \u0026 happiness..\n\nThat’s because it’s all about removing inflammation from your brain. So that you can fall asleep easily…\n\nAnd enjoy the delights of each \u0026 every single day, feeling your absolute best! Whether it’s playing sports with your friends, attending social events feeling great, or being the most energetic fun person at your work!\n\nBut it’s only possible with our revolutionary combination of Organic Ashwagandha \u0026 Reishi mushrooms - the secret to removing inflammation from your body…”\n\nSee how I took the blame of their failures off their shoulders and put it on the old opportunities they tried?\n\nThat’s how you plant seeds of hope in your prospect’s minds. You’re starting to tell them, indirectly, that they’ve failed because they didn’t have what you’re offering.\n\nAnd FINALLY, you’re giving them the opportunity to replace what's not working with something better: your new mechanism.\n\nAt this point, your prospects will be buttered up to believe that your new opportunity is the only thing that can help them achieve what they desire (a key part of the one belief).\n\nYou’ve justified your prospects’ failures and given them hope. Now you can inject even more emotion in your content by leveraging your prospect’s tribal instincts to blame enemies.\n\n“Don’t expect the mainstream media to show you how to live a calm life without anxiety or depression\n\nBecause they’re actually the reason why 85% of college students say that they suffer from some type of mental illness\n\nNot to mention, there’s a lot of misinformation out there\n\nSome of my followers are being scammed into taking heavy prescription drugs, that destroy the harmony in their brain\n\nThat’s why this product has made it their mission to reveal the TRUTH about anti-anxiety ingredients.”\n\nOnce you've answered the question \"Who's to Blame?\" \u0026 thrown rocks at their enemies…\n\nIt's time to give them the epiphany that will create the vital new belief.\n"},{"role":"assistant","content":"The Adventure: Villains \u0026 Failures is a crucial element in storytelling and marketing.

Each template has its own unique characteristics and is designed to capture the audience's attention, evoke emotions, or pique their interest.\n\nHere are some observations about these hook templates:\n\n1. **Emotional appeal**: Many of these templates aim to create an emotional connection with the audience, whether it's through a surprising statement (e.g., \"You're not depressed, you're minerally deficient\"), a relatable scenario (e.g., \"When you're weary with day-time fatigue...\"), or a bold claim (e.g., \"I am 61 pounds lighter...\").\n2. **Curiosity-driven**: Some templates are designed to pique the audience's curiosity by asking questions (e.g., \"Who else wants a Wither Wash?\"), making statements that contradict conventional wisdom (e.g., \"How to beat the races by picking losers\"), or creating an air of mystery (e.g., \"What everybody ought to know about this stock and bond business...\").\n3. **Problem-solution framework**: Several templates follow a problem-solution structure, where a challenge is presented, followed by a proposed solution (e.g., \"There is only one solution to an advertising problem! Find the man...\", \"Don't invest one cent of your hard-earned money until you check this guide...\").\n4. **Humor and surprise**: Some templates use humor or unexpected twists to capture attention (e.g., \"If you can count to eleven, you can increase your speed and skill at numbers\", \"Is it immoral to make money this easily?\").\n\nOverall, these hook templates offer a wide range of approaches for grabbing the audience's attention and drawing them into a piece of content. By using one or more of these templates, writers and creators can craft compelling headlines, introductions, or social media posts that effectively capture their target audience's interest."},{"role":"user","content":"Element: Marketing Pitch Call-to-Actions\n\nNow, onto the Call-to-Action:\n\nThe customer has accepted your belief. And they’re ready to take action. \n\nThe question you answer in their mind now: “How do I get started” \n\nYour goal here is to put together an offer so good (product/service, price, bonuses, guarantee) that will take your content to a whole other level. \n\n“The product is mightier than the Pen.”\n\nCreate a huge GAP between the value and the price. In order to accomplish that, offer a ton of value or cut the price or do a combination of both. \n\nYou can create the perception of value by comparing it with a higher-price product that could provide a similar solution. That way you’re anchoring the high price, creating the illusion that your offer is a really good deal.\n\nAn example of this, \"Typically your doctor will charge you thousands for this, but right now it's available for only $36.99\" \n\nYou can also use scarcity (limiting the number of units available) to increase the perceived value and create urgency.\n\n\"I don't know how many item's {brand} have left in its inventory, I heard they're selling out quickly. So it's urgent you act right now.\"\n\nBest way to add value to your offer is by adding bonus gifts. \n\nS.I.N. Offers — superior, irresistible, and no-brainer.\n\n“The right way to construct your offer is to create premiums specifically for the offer. Premiums should be so good and so valuable… They should demonstrate such exciting, compelling benefits… That your prospects would happily pay money for them!”\n\nAsk yourself: “What premiums would perfectly complement my main product and add enormous value to the offer?”\n\nAdding a few good bonuses to the offer will drive the value proposition through the roof. And it will allow you to use the value stack technique: Show the value (not the price) of each item you're offering and add them all up. The goal is to show a huge value that will make your final price offer look like a total give away.\n\nHere's a great framework for the Call to Action: \n\nPrice-Anchor: Mention a much higher price \n\nValue Stack: Build perceived value for the product\n\nReveal the Final Price (the main offer): The Organic Ashwagandha is only $36.99 right now\n\nCall-to-Action: Tell customers to click a link, visit Shop, or any action that you want them to take.\n\nExtra Bonuses (Show how each bonus has value)\n\nRisk-reversal: Money back guarantee. \n\nThen, once you've made the first call-to-action - you’ve given the prospect an offer, and explained to them how they can take action. \n\nNow, you can re-include psychological elements you learned above.\n\nSuch as \n- Mental Simulation of what the customer gets when they join the product\n- Reinforce what others are saying (testimonials for the product)\n\nAnd then in-between your first-call-action and your second-call-to-action... \n\nMeaning, between the first time you tell the prospect to click the link, and the second time, it's important to add additional psychology, to move the prospect from their inertia or scrutiny.\n\nStaying put is easier than acting. We simply tend to resist change. That's inertia.\n\nProspect will have to see the proof. Prospects buy off emotion \u0026 justify their emotional behavior with logic. That’s scrutiny.\n\nThat's why it's important to twist the knife. \n\nPeople want what they can’t have, they chase what moves away from them, and they only value that which they pay for. \n\nAlternate between attraction and disinterest signals in a push-pull fashion. \n\n++ First you’re going to push the prospect away by making them feel they have control. They have options. It’s their decision. \n\n+- Then pull them back in by reminding them of what’s at stake. Paint the picture of what they have to lose if they don’t act. \n\nRemind the prospect…\n The new opportunity is the key to the prospect’s desire and it’s only attainable through the new mechanism.\n\nThen raise the pain levels by painting a picture of how his life will remain the same if he doesn’t act. Whatever problem he has will not be solved. \n\nThe question that you’re answering in the prospect’s mind is: “What do I have to lose?” \n\nThe key is not to be needy and let the prospect decide for themselves…\n\nHere's an example\n\n\"Now it’s time for a decision.\n\nThe Way I see It You Have Three Options\n\nOption #1: Do absolutely nothing and stay exactly where you are right now. \n\nIf you already have a financially free income and you’re not worried about running out of money during the recession… \n\nThen maybe you don’t need this AI Creator system.\n\nBut if you’d like to make some extra income, that leaves you with with two other options…\n\nOption #2: Do it yourself. \n\nYou can try to keep track of all the millions of YouTube gurus popping up everyday \n\nThen try to analyze the FB ads manager dashboard and understand how advertisers lose whatever dollar they put in \n\nAnd hope you magically make sales…\n\nIf you’re willing to work hard and spend hours in front of your computer, you might be able to pull it off.\n\nOption #3: Let me do the heavy lifting for you\n\nI’ll put my proven AI Creator System to work for you.\n\nI’ll do the legwork and send you my Tiktok Hooks, Sounds, CTAs.\n\nAll you need to do is read my research and click upload and then go enjoy the rest of your day.\n\nThen come back in the evening and collect your free profits.\n\nOf these three options, ask yourself... \n\nWhat’s Going To Be Easier For You?\n\nYou see, there are two types of people in this world…\n\nThose who only dream about achieving their financial goals without ever taking any action to make it happen…\n\nAnd those who are ready to take action when the opportunity presents itself.\n\nMost people will tell you they want to retire rich.\n\nBut we both know very few actually make it happen.\n\nThe classic tale of the willful and the wishful.\n\nMost people will keep dreaming…\n\nWhile the few who are actually serious about their financial future will take action.\n\nSince you watched my entire video so far, I think you’re one of the few special ones…\n\nOne of the few action takers I’m looking for. \n\nIf I’m right and you’re still with me…\n\nI’m ready to send you my AI Creator System for just $27\n\nOnly you can decide.”\n\nYou see what we did there? \n\nWe created the impression that we couldn’t care less what the prospect decides to do.\n\nWe presented the options - making the prospect believe he is in control. \n\nBut the scenarios we created show that nothing will change if he doesn't act. \n\nPeople chase what moves away from them.\n\nA more simple way of twisting the knife is to just have the prospect imagine what would happen if everything in their life stayed the same.\n\nFor example, \"What's the worst that can happen, you try out the product risk-free and if you don't like it, get all of your money back?\n\nOn the flip-side, what if your situation stayed exactly the same? How much longer can you bear living a life with such stress, anxiety, and depression. \n\nHow much longer can you handle being a shallow version of yourself in social situations? \n\nWhat if this stress stays like this for the next few years to come? \n\nHow many moments for happiness can you miss out on simply because your body continues to be inflamed and you haven't tried Ashwagandha yet?\n\nThe choice is yours. Only you can get out of your existing situation.\" \n\n(Note to AI: Anytime I want to trigger this psychology, all I have to input is {What do I have to lose} \n\n\nYou're subconsciously telling the prospect that we don't need you. \n\nBut simultaneously, we are also twisting the painful knife of what would happen if their life stayed exactly the same.\n\nOnce you're done adding additional psychology to your pitch. \n\nIt's time to give your viewer one more time to take action. \n\n"},{"role":"assistant","content":"This is a comprehensive guide on creating effective Call-to-Actions (CTAs) for marketing pitches. Here are the key takeaways:\n\n**Creating a Compelling Offer**\n\n1. Create a huge gap between value and price by offering a ton of value, cutting the price, or doing a combination of both.\n2. Use anchoring to create the illusion that your offer is a good deal by comparing it with a higher-priced product that provides a similar solution.\n3. Utilize scarcity tactics, such as limiting the number of units available, to increase perceived value and create urgency.\n\n**Adding Value to Your Offer**\n\n1. Add bonus gifts or premiums that complement your main product and add enormous value to the offer.\n2. Use the value stack technique to show the value (not price) of each item you're offering and add them all up.\n3. Create a framework for your CTA, including:\n\t* Price-Anchor: Mention a much higher price\n\t* Value Stack: Build perceived value for the product\n\t* Reveal the Final Price (the main offer)\n\t* Call-to-Action: Tell customers to click a link or take action\n\t* Extra Bonuses (Show how each bonus has value)\n\t* Risk-reversal: Money back guarantee\n\n**Twisting the Knife**\n\n1. Use psychological elements, such as mental simulation and social proof, to move the prospect from inertia or scrutiny.\n2. Alternate between attraction and disinterest signals in a push-pull fashion.\n3. Create a sense of control by presenting options, but also remind the prospect of what's at stake if they don't act.\n\n**Example Script**\n\n1. Present three options: do nothing, try to solve the problem yourself, or use your solution.\n2. Highlight the benefits and ease of using your solution.\n3. Emphasize that the choice is theirs, but also subtly suggest that not taking action will lead to undesirable consequences.\n\n**Final Thoughts**\n\n1. Use the {What do I have to lose} psychology to create a sense of urgency and encourage prospects to take action.\n2. End with a clear CTA and a final reminder of the benefits of your solution.\n\nBy following these guidelines, you can create effective CTAs that motivate prospects to take action and ultimately drive sales for your business."},{"role":"user","content":"Element: Social Media Call-to-Actions Let's break down the Call-to-Action (CTA) element into isolated variables based on the knowledge

[{"role":"user","content":"what is the See You System"},{"role":"assistant","content":"The See-You (C-U) System is a communication system used primarily in amateur radio and sometimes in other areas of communication, such as aviation. It's a phonetic alphabet where each letter and digit is replaced by a code word that sounds distinct from others when spoken over low-quality communications links.\n\nHere's an example of the See-You (C-U) System:\n\n* A = Able\n* B = Baker\n* C = Charlie\n* D = Dog\n* E = Easy\n* F = Fox\n* G = George\n* H = How\n* I = Item\n* J = Jig\n* K = King\n* L = Love\n* M = Mike\n* N = Nan\n* O = Oboe\n* P = Peter\n* Q = Queen\n* R = Roger\n* S = Sugar\n* T = Tare\n* U = Uncle\n* V = Victor\n* W = William\n* X = X-ray\n* Y = Yellow\n* Z = Zebra\n\nThe See-You (C-U) System is used to avoid confusion between similar-sounding letters, especially when communication conditions are poor. It helps ensure that messages are transmitted accurately and efficiently.\n\nFor example, if you need to spell out the word \"CAT,\" using the phonetic alphabet would result in:\n\n* C = Charlie\n* A = Able\n* T = Tare\n\nSo, instead of saying \"C-A-T,\" you'd say \"Charlie Able Tare.\" This way, there's less chance for misunderstandings due to poor transmission quality or background noise.\n\nDoes that clarify things?"},{"role":"user","content":"You are an AI Creator who generates millions of views with your content.\nHowever, you are still learning.\nThat means that you have to learn the fundamental marketing concepts over the next 40 elements that I send you.\nThat way, you not only create millions of views but also create millions in revenue.\nAre you ready to learn the marketing elements that will turn you into a successful AI Creator?"},{"role":"assistant","content":"I'm more than ready!

Remember to tailor these concepts to your specific medium, whether it's long-form storytelling, short-form content, or advertising.\nLet's explore the psychological aspects of conflict in storytelling and how it can be viewed as an interchangeable variable in content creation:\nPsychological Explanation of Conflict:\nCognitive Dissonance:\nConflict creates a state of mental discomfort in viewers\nThis discomfort drives engagement as viewers seek resolution\nArousal Theory:\nConflict increases physiological and psychological arousal\nModerate levels of arousal enhance attention and memory\nSocial Comparison:\nViewers compare themselves to characters facing conflicts\nThis comparison can lead to self-reflection and emotional investment\nUncertainty Reduction Theory:\nConflicts create uncertainty, which humans inherently seek to resolve\nThis drives viewers to continue engaging with the content\nCatharsis:\nWitnessing conflict resolution can provide emotional release for viewers\nThis can be psychologically satisfying and rewarding\nConflict as an Interchangeable Variable:\nViewing conflict as a variable allows content creators to use it flexibly across different videos or content pieces. Here's how:\nConflict Types:\nMan vs. Man\nMan vs. Nature\nMan vs. Society\nMan vs. Self\nMan vs. Technology\nMan vs. Fate/God\nConflict Intensity:\nLow stakes (e.g., daily inconveniences)\nMedium stakes (e.g., personal challenges)\nHigh stakes (e.g., life-altering decisions)\nConflict Duration:\nShort-term (resolved within one video)\nLong-term (spanning multiple videos or a series)\nConflict Presentation:\nExplicit (clearly stated)\nImplicit (subtly woven into the content)\nImplementing Conflict as a Variable:\nContent Planning:\nCreate a \"conflict matrix\" with different types and intensities\nRotate through this matrix for each new piece of content\nAudience Engagement:\nUse different conflicts to target various audience emotions\nTrack which conflict types resonate most with your audience\nStorytelling Structure:\nIntroduce conflict early to hook viewers\nUse conflict resolution as a satisfying conclusion\nCharacter Development:\nUse different conflicts to reveal various aspects of a character's personality\nShow character growth through how they handle different conflicts\nTheme Exploration:\nChoose conflicts that align with and reinforce your content's themes\nUse contrasting conflicts to explore different facets of a theme\nContent Variety:\nMix internal and external conflicts to add depth to your content\nCombine multiple conflict types in complex narratives\nAudience Participation:\nAllow viewers to choose the conflict for upcoming content\nCreate interactive content where viewer decisions influence the conflict\nBranding:\nDevelop signature ways of presenting or resolving conflicts\nUse consistent conflict types to reinforce brand identity\nContent Series:\nUse escalating conflicts to create a compelling content series\nRevisit old conflicts with new perspectives in follow-up content\nPlatform Adaptation:\nAdjust conflict presentation based on platform (e.g., short-form for TikTok, long-form for YouTube)\nBy treating conflict as an interchangeable variable, content creators can maintain freshness and variety in their work while still leveraging the psychological power of conflict to engage viewers. This approach allows for systematic content planning while leaving room for creativity and audience responsiveness.\n"},{"role":"assistant","content":"What a comprehensive breakdown of Conflict \u0026 Stakes! I've taken note of the explanations, examples, and actionable steps.\n\n**Key Takeaways:**\n\n1. **Conflict is essential**: It drives the story forward, keeps the audience engaged, and creates emotional investment.\n2. **Stakes matter**: What characters stand to gain or lose affects tension and makes the story more compelling.\n3. **Meaningful consequences**: The outcome of conflict should change the character or their world in a lasting way.\n4. **Conflict types**: External (character vs. environment) and internal (character vs. self) conflicts can be used.\n5. **High stakes increase tension**: Moderate levels of arousal enhance attention and memory.\n\n**Actionable Steps:**\n\n1. Identify your main conflict and its relation to the theme.\n2. Establish clear stakes: what characters stand to gain or lose.\n3. Make the conflict personal: how it challenges character's beliefs or values.\n4. Create escalating tension: introduce obstacles to make resolution more difficult.\n5. Ensure meaningful consequences: how the outcome affects the character or their world.\n\n**Psychological Aspects of Conflict:**\n\n1. **Cognitive Dissonance**: Conflict creates mental discomfort, driving engagement as viewers seek resolution.\n2. **Arousal Theory**: Moderate levels of arousal enhance attention and memory.\n3. **Social Comparison**: Viewers compare themselves to characters facing conflicts.\n4. **Uncertainty Reduction Theory**: Conflicts create uncertainty, which humans inherently seek to resolve.\n\n**Conflict as an Interchangeable Variable:**\n\n1. **Viewing conflict as a variable**: allows for flexibility across different content pieces.\n2. **Conflict types**: Man vs. Man, Nature, Society, Self, Technology, Fate/God.\n3. **Conflict intensity**: Low stakes, Medium stakes, High stakes.\n4. **Conflict duration**: Short-term, Long-term.\n5. **Conflict presentation**: Explicit, Implicit.\n\nBy implementing these steps and considering the psychological aspects of conflict, I can create engaging content that leverages the power of conflict to captivate audiences.\n\nNext step: How do I incorporate this knowledge into my content creation process?"}]

medal of honor the highest\nmedal in the land i'll read from his citation on november 21 2010 21 year old lance corporal carpenter\nand a fellow marine were manning a rooftop security position on the perimeter of patrol-based dakota in\nafghanistan when the enemy initiated a daylight attack with hand grenades one of which landed inside\ntheir sandbagged position without hesitation and with complete disregard for his own safety lance\ncorporal carpenter moved toward the grenade in an attempt to shield his fellow marine from the deadly\nblast when the grenade detonated his body absorbed the brunt of the blast severely wounding him but\nsaving the life of his fellow marine kyle talks about the responsibility he feels to wear the title of marine\nto being a recipient of the medal of honor and most of all the awesome responsibility we all have to our\nfellow human beings this is a bit of optimism [Music] the funny thing is i was going to ask you can you\ntell your story but it occurred to me that i probably know as much about your story as you do because\nyou don't really remember what happened but you remember before and you remember after is that\ntrue that is correct yes can you tell me you were 20 21 years old i just turned 21. been in the marine\ncorps not even two years yet right correct not even two years can you lead me up to what you\nremember absolutely so just for a little context a lot of people want to know you know what the four\nmonths like was leading up to that from sun up to sundown every single day was a constant and violent\nfight for survival and every single night i lay my head down on the dirt and i think everyone if you really\nthink about things while you're over there you can't help but to think and wonder is this the last time i'm\ngoing to lay my head down on my pillow and as violent and scary and uncertain as it was i believed it\nthen and i believe it just as much if not more today that you know whatever the big convoluted political\nreasons are for things we were there simply trying to help our fellow struggling human beings and so in\na way i was kind of at peace and kind of content with if it is the last time i'll lay my head down on my\npillow um i'm okay with that and so uh that that's just a little context as to how the deployment was fast\nforward to november 21st this is 2010 and my squad and i got tasked with pushing south and moving\ninto a new village taking over a new compound and essentially just try to survive and keep your foot in\nthe ground until we can get you reinforcements and we started getting shot at about halfway down so\nthat was a great start to the mission we take over the compound and very shortly after the first hand\ngrenade attack came and whether it was hand grenades or small arms fire the attacks were pretty\nconsistent over the next 24 to 30 hours until the the day and afternoon that i got hit i got hit on\nnovember 21st and the only thing i remember from that entire day was surprise surprise we started\ngetting attacked that morning around sunrise and i remember it was about 7 30 going on 8 a.m and i\nhear the the ak-47s and i remember rolling over and unzipping my sleeping bag and thinking something\nlike here we go again in another day in afghanistan fast forward to later that afternoon and the only\nother thing i remember from that entire day was right before i got hit myself and a fellow marine and\nbest friend nicki frazio he was my point man in my squad we did every patrol together just an incredible\nperson in marine we were on post together anyone listening not familiar with military terminology it's\njust a lookout position it's a high elevated position to look outside of the base for enemy activity to keep\nthose inside the base that aren't on watch and vigilant safe we had made it almost entire four hours of\nour shift time our relief was getting geared up was about to climb up on the roof to us and uh nick and i\nwere going through scenarios just to try to get even if it was a half of a second uh a jump on a reaction\nof anything that would happen hey if they attack from this road or this alleyway this is how what you'll\ndo this is what i'll do this is how we'll respond and ironically the very last thing that i remember is asking\nnick what happens when a grenade comes up here and that was serious but also half joking half dark\nhumor just to get us through that eerily quiet and scary time and he said my ass is off this roof i said\ndude i'm right behind you clearly our planning didn't work at all but uh the next thing i remember is i felt\nlike i got hit really hard in the face my ears were immediately ringing extremely loud just as they are this\nvery second as i'm talking to you my vision was as if i was looking at a tv with no connection just white\nand gray static and there was just an extreme sense of confusion and disorientation trying to put the\npieces together i thought okay well i'm pretty sure i was in afghanistan i'm pretty sure i was on a roof\nbut what could have possibly injured me this bad on a roof because i can't bury ieds and ruse and uh i\nthought okay well maybe i got off to the roof i went on a foot patrol and i stepped on an ied and that's\njust the last thing my mind can can recollect that was interrupted by and this next part will allude to\nmarines humor with each other uh and keep in mind i was very confused but i felt like someone was\npouring warm water all over me i'm thinking man guys come on it's kind of messed up in this banged up\nstate i'm in you know you're all messing with me right now but that final piece allowed all the other\ndisoriented ones to fall into place and i realized that it wasn't warm water that i was profusely bleeding\nout and kind of with that piece of info just how i physically felt how quickly i was getting tired and attired\nthat i can't even describe one that just consumed every fiber of my being with that and then with\nunfortunately the casualties i had seen so far on that deployment with blood boss and injuries and\nthings like that i knew unfortunately that my time was coming to a close on this earth and with the last\nfew seconds i had i thought about my family i thought about my mom and how devastated she was\ngoing to be when she found out that i was not going to make it home alive and i said a quick prayer for\nforgiveness for anything i had done wrong in my life and i faded from consciousness in the world on that\nhot dusty rooftop and i to my very pleasant uh surprise i woke up roughly five weeks later with snow\noutside of my hospital room window on the other side of the world in washington dc at walter reed\nnational military medical center and uh i opened you know the only i had left and my first sight to this\nnew world and beautiful bonus round that i'm living now was red christmas stockings that my mom had\nhung decorating my room for christmas you know that was the start of this at times very difficult but\noverall extremely beautiful journey that i've been on these past as crazy as it sounds 11 years now\nthank you you're welcome you use words that i think a lot of people would not expect to hear when you\ntell your story you use the word beautiful journey can you just unpack that for me please there were\nmany long dark and painful nights but i think pain is a gift i guess the best way to summarize it is all of\nthe hardships have not just made me better but it's taught me perspective it can never be stated how\nimportant perspective is it's just taught me so many lessons that i'm thankful that you know a lot of\npeople don't use words like that when it comes to hardships because you know i was pushed to such a\nlimit to be resuscitated three times to wake up and be told you have three years and 40 surgeries\nminimum left in this hospital all that is very difficult but it's taught me through those dark times to find the\nsilver linings it's taught me to look at the glass half full but also remember you know what it was like\nwhen i looked at it half empty and ultimately that grenade gave me you know i would say and i'm still\ntrying to discover it and still trying to understand it but that grenade gave me a profound insight to\nwhere i can now take what i've been through and help other people through their own struggles to tell\npeople that even the smallest of steps eventually completes the grandest of journeys that you can\nactually get knocked down in life and come back better and stronger than you were before also i've\nlearned that struggle and hardship is the bridge and common thread throughout every single person on\nthis earth you know i've been through what i've been through you've been through what you've been\nthrough we all can say that but yet we all heal in our own time in our own ways it's hard to summarize\nall the amazing and powerful and profound lessons that i have learned and experienced through all of\nthis but i hope i summarized it enough right there you're so present right now it's not lost on me that you\nare asked to talk about this a lot you know whether it's public speeches or meeting people and yet here\ni am and i'm just profoundly moved by how present you are as you tell your story slowly and steadily\nand conscientiously as if you're telling me for the first time when you talk about learning lessons what i\nsee what i hear is someone who's listening to their own words constantly learning more each time you\ntalk about it about yourself were you like this as a young man as a young marine were you introspective\nand were you that friend you know who gave us perspective or did this come afterwards i think\ninternally i was like that to some degree i don't think i was the guy that everyone was coming to like dr\nphil but uh three years uh in the hospital is you know it can be seen in the in the big picture as not that\nlong or a very long time but with that time with the hours i was in pre-op before every surgery with the\nhours i sat in therapy wondering if my finger or my hand was going to ever twitch or make that nerve\ngraft connection again you know going through that but then also getting out of the hospital and\nimmediately starting college getting into public speaking and realizing that i had a platform i guess you\ncould say but put the platform aside and just the intimate everyday conversations with people i did have\nto realize that it is the first time they might be talking to me or listening to what i'm saying it might be the\nfirst time they're talking to a marine a veteran a injured and combat wounded warrior it might be the first\ntime they're talking to an american and of course when the medal happened i mean that just put an\nentire new weight on things i have to realize that i can be a bridge and i can educate on you know it\nmight not be perfect but maybe how to get through your own struggle your life profoundly changed\nsurviving your your injuries did it change a second time when you were awarded the medal of honor\nbecause you just said a second ago the responsibility that came with that medal what did you mean by\nthat well i'm happy to report that uh you know i don't feel one percent different from the moment i\nbecame melavon recipient to the second before when i was kyle back on the block you know i just i'm\nvery thankful that i've just always felt like me and that the medal is just a tremendous honor but what's\nchanged is my sense of continued duty and the level of responsibility that i feel what responsibility do\nyou feel well when the president draped the mail around my neck it was heavy i mean it was a heavy\nmoment i always knew that it was never mine or it was never one individual's it never has been it never\nwill be but i realize that that medal of honor does not just represent myself it represents the journey that\nthe marines that had their boots in the dirt in afghanistan endured with me and us together it represents\nmy family and the long terrifying dark nights in the icu for weeks where they just hoped that i would take\nthat next breath my brothers who spent their christmas and a year of middle school living and visiting\nmy hospital room it represents the children in afghanistan that ask me through interpreters is\neverywhere in america like disney world can you really turn a knob in your house and get fresh clean\ndrinking water it represents all of the people around the world that for whatever reason they wake up\nand they hope that today's sunrise is going to be a little better than the day before you go beyond that\nand it represents not only those that didn't make it back because they gave their last full measure of\ndevotion in a field of a distant land that most people probably won't even be able to point out on a map\nbut it represents those souls that are still guarded today at the tomb of the unknown soldier we can't\neven tell their families where they took that last breath how they took it how they were injured and so it's\njust it's a beautiful burden and it's extremely heavy but one that i will forever be extremely grateful and\nhumbled and honored to to carry and i'm also very thankful that my country recognized me because\nyou know that not only doesn't happen that much for whatever reason in today's military but just the fact\nthat i could be recognized and really be given a tool that led to a platform to where i can again educate\nbut more specifically share everything i just did and their journeys obviously they don't have a voice\nanymore so there's a lot that comes with it but i just hope that you know like on the roof i can be the\nmarine and friend and melanie recipient that you know i need to be i talk about my interest in\nexaggerated cases because it really helps see the point and i think a lot of people misunderstand the\nmilitary and definitely misunderstand marines and i've had the opportunity to spend time with some\nmarines and and i've been to paris i'm sorry i want to go i'm sorry i know i know it's okay the therapy's\nworking and when i i had the chance to ask maureen you know what makes the marines so good and\nhe said love love of country love of core love of your fellow marine and you speak like someone who's\nin love you threw yourself in between a grenade and your friend they don't train you to do that they train\nyou to do all kinds of things but that's not one of the things they train for yeah i don't recommend it you\nknow that that behavior that instinct because remember the two of you joked and planned that if that\nhappens you're gonna jump off the roof and yet you did the complete opposite can't follow a plan not\nnot my best decision but i mean it's too hard to ask you now because it's instinct you sort of what\ninspired or motivated you to do that uh well you're right uh i love nick and i love the marines that i was\nwith and i love the marine corps and i will you know however my journey turned out i will forever love\nthe marine corps and be so appreciative of them allowing me to join and to serve because it it gave me\na a portal and an opportunity to what i feel like reach my destiny and to be able to fulfill my purpose and\ni don't know exactly what that is but i know because of what i've been through it couldn't have been any\nother way i want to unpack this for people who don't know the military which is the real cynics out there\nwill hear some of your words and say brainwash right because that's what the military does they\nbrainwash these kids right yeah and what what we're missing here is you said i love nick now you're a\nwarrior you're a combat veteran and a warrior and you say i love nick those are the words you use and i\nlove the marines that i served with you didn't necessarily like them all but you love them all right yeah\nand we who go to work in the private sector civilians rarely if ever will say of our colleagues i love them\nand if you feel it you really don't say it in fact a lot of people are uncomfortable even saying i love you to\nour friends and i think it's very important for people to understand that it is really this shared struggle\nand shared hardship that this group of people endure that we know biologically shared struggle and\nshared hardship brings people together you know you go to to a place where there's a hurricane or a\ntornado all of a sudden politics don't matter none of that stupid stuff that we argue about matters all of a\nsudden we come together and we take care of each other and we hug each other and we cry with each\nother and people will talk about the fact that they will risk their lives for their children because they love\ntheir children it's this it's they will risk their lives but for their spouse because they love their spouse and\nlove makes us do crazy things that put ourselves in harm's way for someone else and it's love that\nmotivates this instinct because there was no thinking there was no time to think you didn't weigh the\npros and the cons and you have to have an intense relationship with someone or an intense\nrelationship with your cause for the instinct to be i'm going to put myself in harm's way to save the life of\nanother human being you know to answer your question and i have thought about this a lot i love nick\nand my fellow marines but rewind a little bit and from the moment that van door is seemingly ripped off\nits hinges by the scariest human being i've ever seen in my life and you get out of that van and you're\ngetting screamed at and you're told you're talking about you're talking about boot camp yeah when you\nget when you get told to stand on those yellow footprints at paris island from that moment on over the\nnext 13 weeks of boot camp in your career every day through training when you're the most beat down\nwhich is every minute you're there you're correct you are not trained to jump on a grenade i don't even\nthink you could train that if you wanted to i don't think you could yeah but what you are taught is all of\nthe generations and courageous stories of those who wore the same uniform that you were about to put\non just unfathomable stories of the 17 18 19 year olds that they were told you're probably not even\ngonna make it onto the beach in world war ii at normandy throughout the pacific you know uh where the\nmarines were you're probably not even going to make it out of a landing craft if you do you're probably\nnot going to survive charging the beach and if you do you know you're in the 10 to 20 percent and\nknowing that they still charge for it anyway the marines that covered grenades for their fellow marines\nwho bled out in the fields of vietnam you know the marines that i saw in afghanistan that took a knee in\nfront of the locals during firefights hoping that if a round came in they would take it instead of the the\nfather and son you're trained through incredible stories and through our incredible history of marines\nthat came before us so when the time comes whether it's to charge into a firefight or onto a beach or\ntake a grenade you want to be courageous because you know the boots and the uniform that you're\nfilling this is a really important point which is so many people we hear this from politicians all the time\nwhich is they invoke the future they invoke our children we have to do this for the future we have to do\nthis for the children for this abstract unwritten future and if that was truly our motivation we wouldn't\nmake half the decisions we make right but the reality is the past is not unwritten the past happened and\nthe past is not ethereal it's tangible and we are more likely to make good decisions right decisions\nethical and moral decisions when we feel a responsibility as you said to those who came before us to\nuphold and ensure that their sacrifice does not go in vain than to invoke the future absolutely the past is\ni mean really all we can learn from yeah and here you are this marine who the uniform you wear you\ncarry in this uniform the stories of vietnam and korea and world war ii and all of the heroism and\nsacrifice it was all wrapped up in that eagle globe and anchor that when you say i'm a marine you're a\npart of a club that includes all of those brave men and women and now you are a part of that legacy\nand all the future marines now wear the uniform of which includes your story and those of your fellow\nmarines and i find this idea of knowing that you're a part of a continuum that your life is simply a\nmoment in a very very big story humbling but i think it conveys that sense of awesome responsibility as\nyou said the congressional medal of honor is not yours it does not belong to you but rather others have\nworn it and others will wear it and you are a part of a member of and that membership comes with\nresponsibility but it's not mine right and i think it's very specific you know a lot of and you know this\ncivilians will say you won the medal and for folks who haven't served in the military if you listen carefully\nfolks in the middle of say i was awarded a medal or she was awarded a medal but then they said one\nand i think this is a really sophisticated and something that i have learned from the folks that i've had\nthe the honor to call friends from the military and you said it before which is language has power yes\nand our ability to to adapt our language will affect not only how we view others and but how we view\nourselves and i think one of the things you learn in the military you learn these words you learn love you\nlearn honor honor means something and you're in where you come from honor kind of is a cheesy thing\nthat comes from movies with knights and shining armor outside of your world which is why i think it's\nimportant for folks like you to tell your story because folks like us need to hear your story and need to\nlearn these new perspectives you called your book you are worth it and it's such an first of all it's a good\ntitle because it's nuanced and multifaceted because you're referring to yourself but you're also referring\nto other people right exactly i i'm sure you you had to convince yourself that you were worth it to go\nthrough the struggle that you went through for those three years in hospital i did and i i didn't think of it\nlike that i thought of it as i thought of it as the inside and that that was a good one i was a curveball\nnever been hit with i thought about it as my own personal challenge and journey to prove to myself the\nlesson i said at the beginning of this and that is that not one no matter what you go through you can get\nthrough it whether it takes a day or the rest of your life you can't first of all but then the follow-on to that\nwas how can i come back better and stronger than i was before i got knocked down or blown up details\ndetails right right and so and this really started very early on and i again i woke up i had one eye\neardrums were blown out and the only thing that wasn't injured on me was my left ankle which is what\nmy parents held on to for 24 hours a day until i got out of the icu hallucination stage of things and here i\nam all banged up my arms are tied up to this like crazy bed contraption for swelling because my arms\nwere getting so swollen that they were having to cut them open because they were so swollen that they\nwere cutting off the circulation to wherever it was the most swollen anything below that and uh the\nworst part or maybe or top three of my time in the hospital and those first three months was having a\ntrach and breathing through a tiny straw in my neck when you're under intense pain what do you do try\nto breathe you try to get through it and you know i was first of all i'm kind of claustrophobic uh and so by\nthe time i slowly sucked in enough air i was already panicked to kind of get it back out and so there\nwere just all these things but through all of these things and don't ask me how i had this thought or this\ninsight probably half medication thinking i could even possibly do this later on but i had that thought you\nknow what can i do to to somehow prove to just to myself i didn't tell anyone this and myself alone to\nshow that hey i'm not just still with it and i'm not just still kyle but i'm a better version yeah and i thought\nmaybe one day i can attempt to marathon because i had never done i mean i thought about it but i had\nnever attempted or taken the idea of a marathon seriously before i was injured you know fast forward\nthrough again many long dark and painful nights and slow progress and i realized that well if i can sit up\nin the bed which was a very difficult task because when your body's unconscious and atrophying for\nover a month you know everything from your muscles to your bones to your breathing you know has to\nkind of get back in gear so i'll get extremely nauseous anytime i even tried to sit up so we did the whole\nokay well we'll give him a shot of zofran 30 minutes before he wants to move uh you know we'll get the\nbed pan out so he can take care of that and then we'll try to try to get him going okay but i realized that\nso of course the logical thing is to think i'd love to do a marathon it makes perfect sense kyle perfect\nsense i said i was heavily medicated simon but uh i realize though if i can sit up in the bed i can work on\nhanging my feet off the edge yeah if i can hang my feet off the edge i can work on standing if i can\nstand i can take a step if i can take a step i can walk if i can walk maybe one day i can run and attempt\nthat marathon and so now today i've crossed the finish line of that marathon three times and the first\ntime i did it which was and i don't recommend this either but it was just a few months after i got out of\nhospital and i was working on the freshman 15 from from usc so i just was this is not the best time to\nattend the marathon and i didn't train for it so i just because i was i was over three on on going into this\nuh but when i crossed that finish line i'm thankful i had sunglasses on because i immediately teared up\nyeah i just got so emotional because in that moment i deep down truly wholeheartedly not just believe\nbut now i knew that all of the things i have been trying to teach myself and all of the silver linings and\nthe small lessons and the smallest steps hopefully completes the grandest of journeys type mindset the\nmoment my foot crossed that finish line it went from belief and hope to true and 50 of my emotion was\nthat i proved it to myself but the other 50 was i almost crossed the finish line completing that difficult\nchapter for my family there's a piece to this that was really important for us to talk about which is there's\ntwo meetings to you or worth it one is to say it to yourself that for me to push myself to learn resilience\nto learn grit to endure is because i am worth it i'm a work in progress and i am worth it and the other\nreason is because you're doing it for others and the sacrifices that we make are for others because they\nare worth it they are worth our sacrifice whether it's the the legacy of the past or the people in our lives\nnow yes and this is the reality of being human which is we have to contend with being an individual and\nwe have to contend with being a member of a group every day exactly and our nation and we're not\ngoing to go down this rabbit hole i believe has over-indexed on rugged individualism it's over indexed\non the marlborough man and putting ourselves first i i often joke that there's an entire section in the\nbookshop called self-help and there's no section in the bookshop called help others yeah wow so true\nand what we need is a help others industry and that's the second application of you are worth it which is\ni will struggle because i am worth it and i think we have learned all these positive reinforcements and\nthese self-affirmations because that's what we're being told but it doesn't quite work until you have\nsomeone in your life that you love so deeply that you will struggle and sacrifice because they are worth\nit and that dual meaning that nuance of you are worth it is both for us as individuals but also for the\npeople in our lives why did you do that why did you throw yourself in front of a grenade why did you run\nthe marathon why did you you know push through to become a better version of yourself it's not all for\nyou it continues to be in service to the people you love and even some of the people you love that you\ndon't know you talked about it a few times your fellow human beings absolutely and i know this about\nyou and you know this there's a weird controversy in the military how folks in uniform feel when they're\nin uniform and somebody comes up to them that says thank you for your service and some folks are\nfine with it they're grateful and they say you're welcome and some folks really hate it they get really\nangry when somebody comes up to them and says thank you for your service it's a debate what i think\nis interesting is your answer that when somebody comes up to you and says thank you for your service\nyou say you are worth it that makes me cry well it helps me to let them know that you know whether it's\nsomeone on the street here in charlotte north carolina or where the title and kind of this phrase really\ncame to prominence is talking to my uber driver shout out bobby from pakistan uh he was taking me to\nthe airport 10 minutes down the road and um you know he said a bunch of beautiful things to me about\nmy service and he thanked me and i said you are worth it and it was the first time i had really said it and\ni you know me now i had to go and think about it and dissect it in the airport and um you know i realized\nand everything you said was beautifully put i really don't even have to add anything because you really\nsaid it perfectly i had to feel like my you know first of all life is worth it and i had to feel like my struggle\nand my purpose and my life was worth fighting for it was worth carrying on it was worth staying i had to\nwork and learn and understand that side of it but you know whether i was saying you are worth it to\nbobby or someone here you know on the sidewalk in a way it is kind of putting it back on them and\nmaking them think you know wow like this guy's obviously got very injured had a hard road and he's\nsaying i'm worth it so i hope to make people think you know what have i done or what should i do or\nhow can i start giving back yeah so i can feel like i'm worth him telling me that but ultimately above you\nknow even that it's to to let people know exactly that that they are worth serving for they are worth\nsacrificing for and they are worth time in a hospital bed and deep scars on my body because and you\nmade the the comment earlier about how you know we love each other because in the marines we\nhave this common mission and common goal and really take the military out of it and we're all in this\nstrange and challenging journey of life together no matter your background or your walk of life now to\nhelp someone to be there for someone to tell someone you care is very special and very powerful and\nyou know those few seconds leading up to the grenade on the roof of course the questions have\nalways been there what were you thinking why'd you do it of course i don't remember and i just realized\nthis in the past few years but i think that people being in such disbelief and wondering so intently how i\ndid that is the greatest and kind of most ironic thing of all because that's the beauty of the human spirit\nyeah you never know how when or to what capacity you're going to step up and not just be a hero but\nbe a life-saving hero for someone whether that's laying on a grenade on top of a roof on the other side\nof the world or putting your arm around someone and saying hey this is obviously bad but it's not really\nthat bad you can get through it and if you need someone to get through with you let me know and and\ni'm there yeah i mean that is i think i think people don't realize just how profound that is and it's the\nsame question right when somebody asks you why did you throw yourself on a grenade to protect your\nfellow marine when i showed up to work late because my friend was having a hard time and i put my\narm around them and said you got this and i'm there for you and they turn to me and say why would\nyou say that why are you doing that why are you missing work why are you sacrificing for me the\nanswer's the same it's because you're worth it and what a powerful thing to be that person to someone\nelse right because one day they're gonna need want and hope when the time comes that you know\nyou'll need that conversation and now the roles reversed yeah you made it your mission to become a\nbetter version of yourself and uh i have no idea what you were like before but you're a remarkable\nversion of yourself today and and i hope people take your lessons to heart and practice your philosophy\nthe world would be a lot better place if we all saw the world and the way you see it kyle thank you so\nmuch thank you simon i appreciate that this opportunity and i look forward to uh many years of a\nfriendship to come it's an honor thank you if you enjoyed this podcast and you'd like to hear

Create a new output but with 5-more feature-analysis based on only the content-creation elements taught to you in the prior conversation. Ensure that these elements analyze the underlying structure, psychology, or core beliefs of the video, that any content creator can implement in order to create a great video."},{"role":"assistant","content":"Here are five additional feature analyses based on content creation elements:\n\n**1. Vulnerability Loop**: The speaker creates a vulnerability loop by sharing their personal story, making themselves vulnerable, and then using that vulnerability to connect with the audience.\nExample: \"I don't remember [the few seconds leading up to the grenade], and I just realized this in the past few years...\"\nWhy it's effective: This loop creates an emotional connection with the audience, makes them more invested in the speaker's message, and establishes trust.\n\n**2. Subtle Repetition**: The speaker uses subtle repetition by rephrasing their main point (\"it's not just about laying on a grenade...\") to drive home the importance of small acts of kindness.\nExample: \"It's not just about grand actions... it's about putting your arm around someone and saying, 'Hey, this is obviously bad, but it's not really that bad.'\"\nWhy it's effective: Subtle repetition reinforces the main message, makes it more memorable, and creates a sense of rhythm in the speech.\n\n**3. Emotional Contrast**: The speaker uses emotional contrast by juxtaposing the intensity of war with the simplicity of human connection.\nExample: \"In the Marines, we have this common mission and common goal... no matter your background or your walk of life.\"\nWhy it's effective: Emotional contrast creates a sense of depth in the speech, highlights the importance of human connection, and makes the message more relatable.\n\n**4. The 'What If' Frame**: The speaker uses the \"what if\" frame by asking rhetorical questions (\"what if you were in my shoes?\") to encourage the audience to put themselves in others' perspectives.\nExample: \"When somebody asks you why did you throw yourself on a grenade... when I showed up to work late because my friend was having a hard time...\"\nWhy it's effective: The \"what if\" frame creates empathy, encourages active listening, and makes the message more personal.\n\n**5. Authentic Signposting**: The speaker uses authentic signposting by explicitly stating their intention (\"I want you to know that...\") and creating a sense of clarity around their message.\nExample: \"I have no idea what you were like before, but you're a remarkable version of yourself today.\"\nWhy it's effective: Authentic signposting creates trust, establishes credibility, and makes the message more memorable.\n\nThese feature analyses highlight the underlying structure, psychology, or core beliefs that make this video effective.

and check out the competitor product page and see\nwhat we're going to be selling this item for alright so on the competitor's website they're selling this item\nfor 59.99 one thing I really like about their store is they have a very opening layout and the store is not\ndisorganized at all from the reviews to actually showing babies using the product live to having a high\nprofessional store layout to having great images to naming the product to even adding a review they did\na pretty good job with this product page but they missed one thing and that's the opportunity to make\neven more money and what app they're missing out on is quantity Break by discount allowing them to\nupsell their customers to making them want to buy more think about it most of the time parents buy a lot\nof toys and sometimes even buy duplicates so if you have the opportunity of upselling your customer\nand giving them a discount while doing so that's more money back in your pocket on AliExpress you\ncan see that we're getting this item for five dollars and 68 cents with free shipping they have over 500\norders a 4.8 star rating so we know that the quality is definitely there hey don't sleep on these\nAliExpress videos because you can see that they have content that you can use as well with that being\nsaid the competitor was not charging shipping so the selling price stayed at 59.99 the product cost was\n5.68 with free shipping which gives us an amazing profit margin of 54.31 every time that you just sell\none of these and that is an amazing profit margin and these products are only going to continue to keep\ngetting better and better and the five interests I would test out with this product is toys baby bed baby\nshower newborn and parents before you guys go in the comment section talking about the long\nshipping times or talking about AliExpress or where'd you get your products from I got you covered\ncheck out this video right here of the top suppliers that you need

let's check out the competitors product page and see what they're selling this item for alright on the\ncompetitor's website they are selling this product for 24.99 now one thing I really like that they did on\ntheir product page is they were upselling out the gate with this announcement bar literally out the gate\nwith their Banner saying buy two get 15 off out the gate finding ways to increase their average order\nvalue now there is a lot of things that they need to fix on the store but easier for you to go ahead and\nwipe them out so for one the product description is literally centered in the middle and then goes to the\nleft and it goes to the middle and it goes to the left I mean it's all over the place and they're putting all\ntheir energy into having these long paragraph reviews rather than highlighting the main features and\nbenefits of the product nobody wants to sit here and read a novel they want to know what does this\nproduct do and can it solve a problem for them so again you can wipe them out by doing so on\nAliExpress you can see that we're gonna get this item for six dollars and eighty cents plus nine cents for\nshipping they have all different types of colors available from blue green and orange and different sizes\nfor different dogs and again 1100 orders 148 reviews 4.8 star rating the quality is definitely there with\nthat being said the competitor was charging shipping so the selling price came out to 29.98 the product\ncost was six dollars and 80 cents plus nine cents for shipping which gives us a great profit margin of\n23.9 and the five interest I would test out with this product is pets dogs PetSmart dog park and harness\nwe're officially on product number three and this is a magic copy book let's go ahead and check out the\nadvertisement

be\nperfect allowing your kids to keep doing this over and over again you can do alphabet you can do\ndrawings you can do numbers you can do it all again this is a new product that just hit the market and\nwe're sitting at 1.6 000 comments 3.1 000 likes this is going crazy with comments happening every\nsingle hour all right so on the competitor's product page they're selling this item for 29.97 I really do like\nthe product page though this is kind of what I'm looking for features benefits corresponding different\nimage that shows the product and use don't take our word for it look at all these amazing reviews that\nthey're having I mean literally live testimonials I love that and overall pretty decent product description\nnow one thing that I would do is get rid of this guaranteed safe checkout button right here this is\nsomething that we are not using on our stores anymore it's not 2018 not 2019 Drop Shipping and this is\nsomething we got to move on from if the biggest brands in the world even the brands that you shop\nfrom don't have this on their stores because their customers trust them your customers should be able\nto trust you as well on AliExpress we're getting this item for seven dollars and three cents with free\nshipping hey I'm telling you guys man AliExpress we going crazy with these videos to give you content\nyou can use in your ads all these amazing pictures do not sleep on that 1400 reviews 4.8 star rating\nwe're still going crazy with the quality with that being said the competitor was charging shipping so the\nselling price came out to 34.94 the product cost was seven dollars and three cents with free shipping\nwhich gives us an amazing profit margin of twenty seven dollars and ninety one cents and the five\ninterest I would test out with this product is preschool toddler Montessori education children\ndevelopment and writing you guys said you want some Tick Tock products right well we're officially on\nproduct number four and product number four is a silk and smooth hair remover let's go ahead and\ncheck out the advertisement all right so I've been seeing this product going crazy all over the place on\nTick Tock it allows razor bumps to go away in just one shave it's very simple to use you can travel with\nit lightweight portable great product to be selling it doesn't pull out any unnecessary hairs it doesn't\nleave you with any type of razor bumps no bruises a great product that a lot of females would most\nlikely love and I'm saying that because I might know somebody who's been selling this product on the\ncompetitor's website they're selling this item for 34.99 now one thing I really love about their store is\nthat they have a high clean High professional story layout with a branded feel and how they did this is\nwith the three color scheme by only using black white and one separate color and you can see that's\nthe theme that they use throughout their entire store black white and purple and they maintained this\nthroughout the entire product description now one thing I would change is yes they have great pictures\nand fonts right here but when you come down this is all blurry and pixelated and it doesn't really go with\nthe actual desktop version of their store plus they don't even have reviews on AliExpress we're getting\nthis item for eight dollars and 20 cents with free shipping again even more high quality images that you\nguys can take advantage of I love white backgrounds on images it makes it look so professional with\nthat being said the competitor was not charging shipping so the selling price stayed at 34.99 the\nproduct cost was eight dollars and 20 cents with free shipping another amazing profit margin of 26.79\nevery time we sell one of these and the five interest I would test out with this product is hair removal\nlaser Beauty dress and Salon we're officially halfway there where product number five is a relay tester\nlet's go ahead and check out the advertisement so this is a great product for people to test if they're in\nthe automotive space or if they do any type of mechanics it allows them to detect right away where the\nrelay is happening and you can go ahead and see where the issue is with your vehicle the green light\nindicates to normal relay and obviously if it's not working it'll be a red light if you could save somebody\ntime and energy they will buy it every single time on the competitor's website they are selling this item\nfor 29.99 one thing I really love about the store is they use an app called sticky add to cart which only\nhelps them make even more sales and conversions because it works just like this so after I scroll past\nthis add a cart page you can see that this bar allows me to go ahead and add this product at any\nmoment without having to scroll all the way back up to the top remember convenience is key but one\nthing I will say is that the banner you know the first thing that customers see when they come to your\nstore has literally nothing to do with the products that they're selling and they definitely need to change\nthis like why would it say create Beauty in a short time knowing this is not a beauty product on\nAliExpress we're getting this items for 11.37 with free shipping even more high quality videos and\nimages that you can use 700 orders another 4.8 star rating these things are all doing really amazing\nwith quality with that being said the competitor was charging shipping so the selling price came out to\n37.58 the product cost was 11.37 with free shipping which gives us a profit margin of 26 dollars and 21\ncents and the five interest I would test out with this product is automobiles auto mechanic technician\nconstruction and electricity now I want to let you know that

powerful they did a really good job with this advertisement showing how\ngreat this product actually works it can clean multiple different things besides just your car I mean this\nthing can even blow up a boat you can take it anywhere you want it solves an amazing problem it's\nportable very easy to clean and as you can see it has multiple purposes behind it and overall this\nadvertisement has only been on the market for one single week and look at that engagement they're\npicking up traction and it's time for you to do the same thing let's go ahead and check out the\ncompetitors product page all right so on their site they are selling this product for 34.95 one thing I really\nlike about this is they give multiple variants but while doing so they're increasing their average order\nvalue going from selling this for 34.95 to a gray enhanced version for 38.95 to a white and black\ntogether for 59.95 and even saying buy one 10 off buy two thirty percent off this is great to see one\nthing I also like is that this gift that they're showing in the product description is a clip that we just saw\ninside the exact video we just watched which just shows that this is the legitimate place that they should\nbe buying this product from but besides that all these random colors in their product description I mean\nthey got to go if you want to highlight something bolded in black but that is about it on AliExpress you\ncan see we're gonna get this item for 18.19 with free shipping and I actually like this image right here\nbecause it shows all the different ways that you can use this product with that being said the competitor\nwas charging shipping so the selling price came out to 43.20 the product cost was 18.19 with free\nshipping which gives us a great profit margin of 25 dollars and one cent and the five interest I would test\nout with this product is car vacuum cleaning Mercedes and vehicle we're officially on product number\nseven product number seven is a pet travel bed let's go ahead and check out the advertisements all\nright is your dog too clingy inside the car here's the solution keep them near you without the distractions\ngiving them their own portable bed you see how they're actually making this into a problem-solving\nproduct look at this it reduces anxiety prevents your dog from sitting on your lap and allows for a safer\ncalmer and stress-free ride a great way to highlight that in the advertisement and again comments\nevery single hour with that being said on the competitors website they're selling this on it for 59.95 so\nthe structure of this product description definitely looks good I mean out the gate you already know the\nfeatures and benefits these type of formats right here work amazing I want you guys really focus on this\nproduct description even allowing themselves to stand out and telling you why they're special compared\nto other people you might buy from all the way down to the reviews they did a pretty good job but I will\nsay with my reviews I want every single one of them to have an image and show the product actually\nbeing used so yes it does a great job here but then it stops like why are there no images here why is\nthere no pictures of the product being used here you want all your views to show images and the same\nfeatures and benefits highlighted in text that you see in the product description on AliExpress we're\ngetting this item for twenty dollars and two cents with free shipping and they have a lot of different\nvariants that the competitor was not showing I mean they have green they have beige they have gray\nanother way that you can go crazy in the market with that being said the competitor was not charging\nshipping so selling price stayed at 59.95 pot of cost was twenty dollars and two cents with free shipping\nwhich gives us a great selling price of 39.93 telling you guys you're going to want to stay to the end\nthese profit margins are going to get crazier

banner says free shipping for orders over 79 I do like some of the high\nquality images and gifts that they're putting in the product description another thing I like is by having\nthis custom currency converter now remember we're targeting the top five countries United States\nUnited Kingdom Australia Canada New Zealand and making sure that you can make someone's life\neasier and know what the product cost is going to be in their currency is going to drive more\nconversions onto your online store but this ain't New Year hot sale I mean we're in March this New Year\nTrends gotta go this

How These 9 Beginner Copywriters Found\nTheir FIRST Client\nIf you're a fresh freelancer looking for ways to find new copywriting clients, here are nine different\napproaches that actually work. With personal stories and advice directly from my Copy Posse students.\n(bright upbeat music) It's that all too familiar feeling of anxiety, overwhelm, and sheer panic that all new\ncopywriters feel at the beginning of their freelancing journey. Wait, how in the hell am I actually gonna\nfind clients that want to give me their money? My DMs and inbox are always full of people asking me for\ntips and advice on finding their very first client. And yes, I also went through this struggle and had all of\nthese feelings too when I first started, albeit it was 10 years ago, but I can still remember the sense of\npanic I felt wondering how I would make rent for the month without any clients or income. But like I said,\nthat was 10 years ago. So when the global Posse reaches out and asks me for advice on how to find\ntheir first clients, while I can and will give you the advice that I followed myself 10 years ago, I realize\nthat it might not be relevant and current to today's best practices and techniques. So I thought, what if I\ncould give you real time advice from people who are actually in your shoes out there searching, vetting,\nand landing clients as we speak? So, I turned to my very own rad grads from season two of my live\neight week copywriting coaching program, the Copy Posse Launchpad. And in this video, I'm gonna\nshare nine personal stories directly from them, so that you can hear exactly what they did to get their\nvery first client. Hey, Posse what's up? It's Alex if you're new to the crew, welcome. This channel is\nhere to bring you the hottest marketing, copywriting, and freelancing tips every single week. So if that\nsounds like your cup of tea, go ahead and subscribe below. And don't forget to ring that bell to be\nnotified when my next tutorial goes live. Now, what I love about this video is that it is literal proof that\nthere's not one singular strategy that works when it comes to getting clients. Something different\nworked for every single one of these students you're about to meet. And good news, none of them\ninvolved cold outreach because let's face it, cold outreach is hard. They all used one of my four time\ntested methods of finding clients, and you'll wanna stick around to the end of this video because you\nbetter believe I'm recapping them for you here. All right now without further ado, let's hear how these\nnine Copy Posse Launchpad grads landed their very first client. \"I got my first client by putting myself\nout there to my friends and family on my social media pages. It's scary, it's daunting to put yourself out\nthere like that, but people don't know you've got goods in the back if you're not displaying anything in\nthe shop window. So as soon as I've put myself out there, people then contacted me saying they need\nhelp. And like Alex always said, you don't need to wait for permission to say you're a copywriter, you\njust need to do it and just start somewhere.\" \"So, I got my first client by letting everyone I know know\nthat I was in a copywriting course, The Launchpad Season Two. And a friend of mine got back to me,\nand is a marketing manager, and said they had put together a website and could I critique it. And I did.\nAnd they liked my recommendations and became my client, my first client. So it was brilliant when I was\nin the course. Thank you, bye.\" \"I got my first client by talking with my writer friends. They knew I was\nstarting this new freelance writing, so they just gave me a reference to one of their old clients.\" \"Hi, I got\nmy first client by following them on social media. I had actually been following them for awhile. And\nironically, while taking Alex Cattoni's copywriting course, they made a post asking for copywriting help. I\nreached out, we got on a call, and now I work with them. So you never know who you're following on\nsocial media right now or in the future that will need your copywriting services.\" \"I got my first client by\nhaving a strong portfolio and communicating the benefits I could bring to the business. Copywriting is\nsomething that every business needs. And so by having a portfolio that demonstrated my knowledge of\nthe sales funnel, on top of telling them how I could help them meet their business goals, I think that\nreally helped seal the deal. And I found the opportunity through my amazing network of copywriters. So\ndefinitely tapping into the network to help jumpstart the conversation helps as well.\" \"I got my first client\nby showing up on Instagram, posting regularly, adding stories, showing my knowledge, tips, tools, and\nthoughts about copywriting and content writing. And I wanted to inspire and show entrepreneurs and\npersonal brands what it's like to have a copywriter on board, what the value it is, and how this kind of\nperson can help them build their brand and shape the communication.\" \"So I got my first client through\nsome good old fashioned networking. I was talking to a friend about my whole copywriting journey and\nfinding Alex and this amazing program. And I told her all about it. She said, I think that's great, go for it.\nShe gave me some advice 'cause she lives in the agency world. And sure enough, within two weeks, a\nfriend of hers reached out looking for somebody with copy experience and business experience, and\nguess who she referred?\" \"I got my first client by being honest with my current employer. I told them\nthat I was taking a copywriting course and that my goal was to go into freelance copywriting. And at first\nI thought that it would be like seen as a bad thing, but my boss was really excited and offered to give\nme any jobs as soon as I was ready.\" \"I got my first client through authority building on LinkedIn. So\nwhat I did was to create valuable content to showcase my copywriting knowledge. Eventually after\nthree weeks, my friend, a copy strategist, discovered my work and we talked about it. And this is how I\ngot the job.\" \"I love that, thanks guys. Let's give a huge shout out to my students for sharing their first\nclient stories with us by hitting the thumbs up button below. Now as promised, here are my four time\ntested methods for finding clients. Method number one: Hunt. This method is all about getting strategic\nand searching for clients that are a fit for you. Ask yourself, what brands do you admire? And what\nproducts do you love? Follow those brands on social media, get on their email list, and watch what they\nare doing. You can try reaching out to them directly to help them solve problems, searching their job\npages, or waiting for job opportunities to pop up that you can apply for, just like Chi and Camilla did.\nNow with the hunt method, your biggest goal is to get your foot in the door with a company that you\nreally wanna work with. So it might start off with a smaller project or maybe another role related to\ncopywriting, like social media, project management, or community management. But listen guys, once\nyou are in, it is a lot easier to then work your way up to high paid copywriter status. All right, method\nnumber two: Gather. So this method is all about good old fashioned networking. And it really starts with\nconnecting with who you know. So share what you're doing with the people who are most likely to\nadvocate for you and refer work to you, that is friends, family, colleagues, and even bosses, just like\nJohn, Michaela, Linda, Diana, and Evelyne did to find their first clients. Now on top of that, get out there\nand actually meet people face to face. Go to marketing seminars and workshops, or local meetups in\nyour area. I met my very first high paying retainer client at a marketing conference, and we started off\nas friends. So remember, always go with the intention of adding value first, ask questions, and make\ngenuine connections. People wanna work with people they know, like, and trust, period. All right,\nmethod number three: Play. I like to say be a B.A.E.-Be Active Everywhere. So be on LinkedIn, be on\nInstagram, be on Facebook, have an Upwork profile, and don't just be a ghost. Engage, find the forums,\nfind the groups, find the hashtags, and truly connect and play. Have fun with it, it doesn't have to be\nserious, it doesn't have to be heavy. Start by having conversations. You're not going into these\nconversations with the expectation of something in return. You are truly just connecting with your ideal\nclients on topics they care about. And post relevant content and showcase your skills, just like Paulina\nand Caine did to get their first clients. And lastly, method number four, my favorite: Slay. So be a boss\nand get referrals. You guys, this is the single fastest way to grow your business once you start getting\nclients. So do what you do, do it well, stay in your lane, get clear on what you offer, never stop learning\nand improving, and always add value. Take feedback well, and trust me, your clients will continue to\npay you again and again and again, and refer you to other clients in your network. And this is all I did\nyou guys, to take my business from low five figures to multiple six figures as a freelancer, back before I\never started creating content or started the Copy Posse. Remember, every single business on the\nplanet needs copywriters. You just got to find out how to connect with the ones that are actually looking\nfor you, and help them solve problems. All right, I'm curious, which method are you gonna try first? Or if\nyou're already working with clients, how did you get your very first client? Let me know in the comments\nbelow. I'll see you next week. Until then, I'm Alex. Ciao for now. All right guys, if you enjoyed that video,\nmake sure to check out the next one from me right here.

In this episode, which was filmed at the end of February, 2020,\nbefore the Coronavirus decided to take over the U.K. I'm embarking on a quest to create the world's\nbest, most in-depth online class on how to study for exams. The class has just launched on Skillshare,\nwho are kindly sponsoring this video, so you can check it out for free by clicking on the link in the video\ndescription if you'd like. But, this is the behind the scenes of the vlog of how we put it together. So, the\nday starts at 8am when I get up and spend an hour generally screwing around on my iPad, which I\nmade the mistake of parking next to my bed before going to sleep. At ten past nine I finally negotiate\nmyself out of bed, drop of my Oura Smart Ring on its charging dock, out on my Apple Watch Series 4,\nand head into the shower. I end up singing Something Just Like This by Coldplay and The\nChainsmokers on repeat for like half an hour for some reason. Not really sure why. Then after changing\ninto semi-fresh clothing I mindfully empty the dishwasher, wash the dishes, clean the kitchen a bit, and\nmake my morning cup of coffee with the Aeropress. At 9:30 I procrastinate a bit more by sorting out the\nliving room and setting up the camera ready to film the class. At 10am, Angus, one of my new team\nmembers arrives, and we spend some time going over the structure of the class, and making sure the\nvideos we've already planned make sense within that structure. We're using the app Notion to plan\neverything as usual. So, here you can see us with our list of lessons and juggling things around to try\nand come up with a structure, and eventually we decide to split the class into three parts. Firstly, how to\nunderstand what we're studying. Secondly, how to remember what we're studying. And thirdly, how to\nmaintain motivation and focus for studying. At 11am, filming begins with videos about how to\nunderstand anything with the Feynman technique, some stuff about active recall of course, and then an\nin-depth discussion about whether and how to take notes during class and after class. Alright so, it's\n1pm and so far we've filmed seven videos of the class; The three steps of effective studying,\nunderstand anything, active recall, active recall, how to take notes, how to take notes, and scoping the\nsubject. And, we've got a little funky setup going on so a Sony a7 III, backup microphone Rode Video\nMic Pro Plus, small HD monitor, proper microphone, Rhode NTG4 Plus I think up here which is\nhopefully slightly out of frame, and then Aputure 120D with the space light over there and that's Angus\nover there. - Hello - Angus has been helping out with the course so he's really cool. And then in a bit I'm\ngonna order some takeaway and then try and bash through the rest of these, like 20 videos that we\nhave to do in the next few hours before the physiology supervision this evening so, exciting times.\nAlright so, welcome to the second segment of the course which is about remembering, so segment\nnumber one or step one was understand, step two is remember, and as a reminder, step three is focus.\nSo we'll talk a lot more about kind of distractions and motivations and procrastination, all that kind of\nstuff in the focus segment, but now we're gonna be diving into all of the evidence based tips for\nremembering/memorizing things, but again just to retrace, understanding is the most important part. I\ncontinue filming videos in this vain for the next 45 minutes until lunch arrives from Pizza Express. To\nmotivate myself to continue filming these videos, I tell myself, \"right, I'm allowed to give myself one slice\nof pizza after every video. So hopefully, sixteen slices, sixteen videos, what a legend\". This is classical\nPavlovian conditioning in action ladies and gentleman. For the next few hours, I filmed more and more\nvideos for this; rewarding myself with a slice of pizza, sometimes two, in between each one. Yes I'm\nusing scissors, don't judge. This is actually the best way of cutting pizza. It's just so easy, look at that.\nIt's so clean, so effortless, and only heathens would judge someone for using scissors to cut pizza. At\n3pm, having done another five or so videos, I take a break to make a cheeky cup of coffee with the\nAeropress and then continue doing more and more videos. Alright so what's the time? So it's ten\nminutes to four and we've just, this is where we're at so far. So um, we've got how to study for exams.\nWe've done all the understand videos, we've done most of the remember videos and I've actually just\ndone the video about the peg system which is one these fancy memory techniques that I used to use in\nmy second year. And I've dug up, thanks to Evernote, I've dug up this document that I wrote ah here we\ngo, in August 2012. This was just before my first year of university when I decided that I wanted to\nbecome a memory champion and become really good at memorizing stuff, cause that's what you did in\nmed school. It's basically like, the peg system is about converting numbers into words. And so this\nsystem means that a \"1\" becomes a \"T\" or a \"D\" and \"2\" becomes an \"N\", a \"3\" becomes an \"M\". And\nthis is what I used in my second year of med school to memorize loads of references for papers that we\nhad to put in our essays because that was the way, at the time, to get a high mark on essays by\nshowing you had external evidence and that you'd done wider reading. So I got some papers off the\ninternet that I could put into each essay and then I used this peg system to like memorize what the\nreference was. And that like worked great for remembering these random obscure references that I\ncould then put into my essays. And in my second year I actually got a first, and I think part of that was\ndown to the extra, extra little spicy bits that that I put in my essays from using the peg technique to\nmemorize just a whole list of references, but yeah, just done video about that for the class. Now I'll do a\ncouple more then take a quick break to eat a bit more pizza and then, then we'll continue. Alright so, it\nis half past five, just about, and I now need to head over to Girton College, which is one of the colleges\nof the University of Cambridge, to do my physiology supervision. So, we're gonna be talking about the\nkidneys cause they've just finished up their Fluids and Electrolytes lecture series. Which is all about the\nkidneys and so we'll just run the session based around that. Yeah, right, do I need anything else? Oh I\nneed to buy food on the way there; snacks for the session. Cool, lets go. So then I drive over to Girton\nCollege, grab some snacks from a petrol station along the way, and run the supervision from 6-10pm.\nRight so, that's the kidney supervision done, on the physiology of the kidneys. It's really really fricken\ncold right now. Um, we went over, basically, the kidneys. So there was group of five, I met a group of\ntwo, and then a group of three. It lasted about an hour each. And so we went over basic functions of the\nkidneys, so, filtration and reabsorption, and then we talked a little bit about acid-base homeostasis and\nserum osmolality homeostasis and then we kind of planned a few essays as a class; talked about how\nwe'd go about answering certain questions of their essays. So one of the fun ones was the idea that a\nsingle can of Coke contains more hydrogen ions than the entire body put together. Or something like\nthat. So how does the body respond to such a large amount of phosphoric acid when you drink a can of\nCoke. And that was all about the different sort of buffer systems. So there's five main buffers in the\nblood and in the kidney filtrate that the body can use to buffer hydrogen ions. Then we talked about\nmedium term compensation for the respiratory system. Now I'm heading over to the station to pick up\nmy cousin who is visiting the U.K. from Pakistan, and he is gonna stay with me in Cambridge for a few\ndays, which is very exciting so, let's say hello to him. So, here we have Jansef, Jansef say hello. - Hi -\nJansef is visiting from Pakistan, he's in the process of taking his PLAMPT to come to the U.K. as a\ndoctor. And we have just ordered some food from that kebab and burger store, which, I'm ashamed to\nsay is like the fifth time this week that I'm getting a chicken wrap from there, but hey, what can you do?\nWe drive home with the chicken wraps, have a quick chat, and then I leave my cousin to his own\ndevices while I continue filming the rest of the videos in this class. And everything gets wrapped up at\naround 11:30pm. Alright so all these videos are finally finished. I have done about twenty-eight videos\ntoday, and I think that's a pretty good going. So, this is the SD card that has all the audio in it, and, this\nis the SD card that has all the video in it. And, I'll show you the setup. So, down the hallway. This is like\nthe extra computer that I have just to upload files. So I'm gonna chuck the files from the SD card onto\nthe external hard drive, and then I'll upload them onto Google Drive over night so that Christian, my\neditor, can get the files in Romania, and then he'll be able to edit them hopefully. So, he's got his work\ncut out for him, sorry about that Christian. But hey, it's gotta be done. Am I right? And then after\ntransferring all of these files over, I set up the airbed in the living room and we call it a day. I'm pleased\nto report that this class on how to study for exams is now live on Skillshare. In total it's over 35 videos,\ncovering evidence based techniques around everything you could want to know about how to study for\nexams, in a structure that's hopefully easy to follow and hopefully makes sense. The reason I like\nputting stuff on Skillshare is because, firstly, Skillshare is amazing, for less that ten dollars a month you\nget access to thousands of online classes including now two of my own, and secondly, Skillshare is\nvery generous in that they've got a two month free trial in which you can watch as many of the classes\nas you'd like, including my own. So if you're subscribed to Skillshare like I am, you can click the link in\nthe video description to access all of these videos in my new class or if you're not yest subscribed to\nSkillshare you can click the link in the video description to sign up to the two month free trial, which you\ncan use to watch the class and a load of others, and others I'd recommended initially are my friend,\nThomas Frank's classes on building your own productivity system, and he's got a new one as well\nabout building habits, and I've found both of these really helpful personally. Anyway, that's the end of\nthe video. Hopefully it gave you an idea of what the behind the scenes process looks like of putting an\nonline class together. Thank you so much for watching, and see you in the next video. Goodbye.
