Fire Fighters, Freedom, and Finding Your Path

6min Read | Watch | Listen

Hey there Visionary Navigators!

March is already halfway GONE.

My kid's growing up way too fast.

And 2025 is zooming by like it's being chased by the tax man.

This week was a mixed bag of stepping into the fire (literally).

Helped a business prepare to move towns.

And chopping wood, carryee water while cranking out another spicy Compass Guidebook.

Why You Should Give All the Cares:

• Playing with Fire: What I learned at the firehouse could save your life (and your house)

• Small Town Takeover: The chiropractor who's about to OWN his market with our AI business strategy

• Self-Ownership Secrets: The spicy new guidebook society doesn't want you to read

CERT Training: Getting Hot & Heavy with Fire Safety

I just spent the day geeking out at Fire Department 42 in Birch Bay.

Massive thanks to the firefighters and CERT volunteers who showed me the ropes.

Did you know there are different types of fire extinguishers for different situations?

Or what all those hazard symbols on semis actually mean?

I learned when to fight a fire and when to say "screw it" and just focus on getting out alive.

The highlight?

Suiting up in full PPE and blasting a real fire with an extinguisher.

Talk about an adrenaline hit straight to the dome!

But here's the real value – I'm taking everything I learned back to my Mutual Aid group.

Simple stuff that could save lives:

• Map out your house with two exits from every room

• Know exactly where your fire extinguishers are

• Test those smoke alarms (when was the last time you checked yours?)

Six more weeks of training to go before the big role-play exercise!

AI Challenge: Getting My Butt Handed to Me by ChatGPT

Sometimes the This AI stuff hits you where it hurts.

While prepping prompts for my next ChatGPT Challenge, I got absolutely owned.

It dropped something so personal I’ve been SHOOK since I read it. Wanna see?

Thankfully, I've got close friends I can bare my soul to when I need to process this kind of mind-bender.

Here's the silver lining – this next ChatGPT challenge is going to be 10X better than the last one.

And the last one already got killer reviews:

Plus a few jabs to the mouth that pushed me to level up…

What's new in this challenge 2.0:

• We're going way beyond basic prompting

• Afternoon advanced feature walkthroughs for those ready to see what this bad boy can REALLY do

• Document editing, proofreading, and idea refinement

• Voice chat hacks for instant answers

• Video screen-sharing tricks and weekend AI guidebooks

Plus the community chat where everyone shares their AI wins in real time.

Seats are filling up fast for the kickoff next week, so don't sleep on this.

Small Town Domination: Chiropractic Edition

Just wrapped up a Entrepreneurs Compass strategy session with a chiropractor who's making a bold move to a small town.

But he's not going in blind.

We did real-time market data analysis of the area and his competition, so he knows exactly what he's walking into.

Now he's got a plan, knows exactly what to offer, and has the peace of mind that his business will thrive in the new location.

He's just one of many crushing it with my Entrepreneur's Compass 3.0:

• A salon owner who went from stuck to growth-ready in ONE session

• An accountant who's light-years ahead of competitors thanks to our research

• A software company that compressed 3 MONTHS of marketing into WEEKS

• A bodyworker building a digital empire that's set to dominate her niche

• A pet waste company that went from "just an idea" to paying clients in 60 DAYS

The Spicy Stuff: Self-Ownership Guidebook

Just finished this week's Compass Guidebook on Self-Ownership, and it's FIRE.

These are hard lessons I had to learn to stand on my own two feet.

Stuff I wasn't taught growing up.

Stuff society doesn't want you to know – because if everyone knew these things, it would be a whole lot harder to manipulate and divide this country.

I'm now up to 15 guidebooks, with a goal of 50 by year's end.

You can get them one by one in your inbox, or sign up for the AI Premium Path for lifetime access (soon to be subscription only, so now's your chance).

Today's Wake-Up Calls:

1. Fire Safety: Learn the basics BEFORE your house is turning into a campfire

2. AI Mastery: The gap between basic users and power users is getting WIDER – which side are YOU on?

3. EASTER EGG: Flow Use your voice to write 3x faster

4. Self-Knowledge: True freedom starts with owning yourself COMPLETELY

Alright, that's all I got for ya this week!

Remember - while everyone else is doom scrolling, you're here getting stronger, smarter, and more prepared. That's what puts you miles ahead of the pack.

Keep your eyes open, your BS detector cranked to 11, and your mind sharp as a tack.

The world's moving fast, but you're moving faster.

Stay curious and keep it real,
