This morning I went to the gym, hit the sauna with my buddies, and got pulled into a mastermind I didn't see coming. Five hours of human conversation later, I came home buzzing. Not because anyone paid me. Because I remembered something we're all forgetting. We're getting siloed off. AI is making it worse. The most valuable thing you'll own in the next few years isn't a skill or a tool. It's knowing exactly who you are and connecting with other humans from that place. I'll show you the simple practice that gets you there. Press play. Featured Story I rolled out of bed this morning thinking I'd hit the gym, get my workout in, and head home. Then my buddies suggested the sauna. We sat in there for over an hour, sweating, talking, building ideas off each other. A full-on mastermind nobody planned. I came home and watched the stucco guys working on my house. Asked them questions I'll never need answered, because I love watching humans do what they're good at. By noon, I caught myself saying out loud — I just have a good life. All because of human connection. Five hours of it. No phone. No AI. No agenda. Important Points Human connection is the currency of the next few years. Build it now, even when it feels uncomfortable to engage. Your ideology shapes every decision you make. Audit your actual actions to discover the worldview running your life. Knowing who you are makes decisions feel simple. Once you write it down, the noise around you starts to fade fast. Memorable Quotes The greatest currency of the next few years is your ability to connect with humans, even when it gets uncomfortable. AI makes you feel smart until it makes you stupid. Humans make you stupid or mad until they make you feel loved. The younger they were, the more they thought they knew. The older they were, the more they tried to remember. Scott's Three-Step Approach Ask yourself the same questions every day for two weeks. Patterns emerge as answers shift over time. Use those patterns to write a Who I Am doc based on your actual actions and the friends you keep, not your dreams. Make every decision from that doc. The resistance you meet will be from people and habits you wanted gone anyway.
