If Jordan Peterson is writing another book it should be about overcoming the Benzos addiction he was hiding while writing the last book about getting your life in order.

Huge opportunity for him to honestly share his challenges with others suffering similar struggles.
Writing another book giving life advice without addressing that comes off as hypocritical
Relevant:
I don’t want this to get interpreted wrong, this isn’t meant to be a dunk.

I have a lot of respect for Peterson’s work and there are probably > 1,000,000 people out there who also like his work and who struggle with some form of addiction that his story could help.

My mind has been completely blown.

THC is secretly legal in Texas, and you can buy it OTC in Austin.

Read on to learn about this incredible, brilliant loophole.
It turns out that THC is not one "thing." It has a bunch of different compounds, and only one of them is illegal.

Delta-9 THC is the THC you're most familiar with. But there's a very close cousin, Delta-8, that's not actually illegal.
When you buy normal weed, it has Delta-9 THC, Delta-8 THC, CBD, etc.

Some people figured out how to extract CBD and make pure CBD supplements, which we all know about.

But now some companies have found a way to extract the Delta-8 THC, while removing the illegal Delta-9

About a month and a half ago, I decided to get into YouTube.

I'd seen how many sales a couple extremely half-assed videos were sending for Effortless Output, and figured it'd be worth trying to grow that channel...
For the first month, I was doing all of it myself.

Shooting, editing, optimizing, lighting, etc. I tried to figure it out on my own.

@AliAbdaal made the process so, so much easier. His videos, courses, and generous help rapidly accelerated my learning.
That's why I'm SUPER excited that he's launching his "part time YouTuber academy."

Ali is going to make over $1,000,000 from his YouTube channel this year.

And now he wants to help more creators do the same.

You should 100% check it out: academy.aliabdaal.com/a/89f1i

If you're young and ambitious, you shouldn't over-invest in retirement funds.

Yes, even though they're tax free and have a crazy ROI compared to other investments.

Here's why 👇
When I was 23, I got fired from the only real job I've had.

Instead of looking for a new role, I spent the next year traveling, learning, and focusing on growing my site.

I was making maybe $1-2k a month passively, but I didn't need to make much.
Why? Because I had a lot of cash.

I'd saved aggressively while at that job, and some of my previous side projects (like this one) had given me a bunch of extra cash to sit on.

My $4,505 in Bedroom Tech 😱

I've been obsessed with improving my sleep quality for 9 years since I first realized how insanely important it was.

I've tinkered with tons of products, and now have over $4,505 worth of tools helping me sleep.

Here are my favorites 👇
The @eightsleep Mattress 🛌

$3,000

I've tried most of the "cold bed" solutions and this is the only bed I've slept in where I don't regularly wakeup in a pool of sweat (yuck)

It gets COLD, is super comfy, and I miss it dearly when I'm away from home.

The @ouraring 💍

$300

The best tool I've found for monitoring sleep quality and recovery.

Extremely useful for seeing how lifestyle changes are affecting my sleep and for giving me rapid feedback on what's aiding or hurting my physical recovery.

One common thread among all the really successful and productive people I know is they have a "systems mindset."
As soon as they do the same thing more than a few times, and that thing is not $1,000 per hour work, they start to think about ways to automate or systematize or delegate it so they can focus on something else.
Sometimes this manifests in small ways: I type in my email all the time, so I set up a hotkey in TextExpander to type my email in 3 characters instead of 20.
