What Is Foundation Setting?

Chakras are the body’s main energy centers.  Most teachers today include seven of them.  Other models include 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, or 13.  Whichever model you choose, “the chakras” are considered the most important of 100s (or even 1000s) of energy centers in our bodies.

My Two Cents

Money is one of my Tier 1 Topics.

That makes it an entrance to many rabbit holes.

These profiles are largely for me.  I use them to record and reference.  In the future, I may make them more meaningful to the outside observer.

No guarantees.  Let’s start small.

The Basis of Commerce

This is an odd way to put it.  But it’s the only phrase that captures the entire bucket.  Gary thinks like a Scorpio.

Plans to Destroy It

Many of my heroes talk about company culture.  Gary’s idea of a “Honey Empire” is one of the best.

A Game to Be Played

Most people know Gary as “that social media guy.”  Makes sense.  He’s one of—if not the—best at it on the planet.

Not the Root of Evil

Gary wants to buy the Jets.  Big dream, but he has a practical plan for it.  Luckily, he is documenting the journey.

For the time being, this site is mostly just a data dump.  Over time, it may become more useful to the outside observer.  Who knows?

How I Think About Foundation Setting

For me, Money Mastery is basically one half of the overall Money puzzle. 

On the same level, I have Economics.  It’s the practical side whereas Economics is more about curiosity. 

It has many sub categories, already 4 or 5 tiers deep–and growing as more knowledge does.  Like it’s parent category, I break Money Mastery into two big chunks… Playing Markets and Financial Literacy.

Here’s a quick look at those.

 

Playing
Markets

There is a lot that goes into.  I can’t make up my mind whether to focus on the writing or the designing.  I guess it doesn’t matter.  The daily content challenge marches on.

This site is the definition of a work-in-progress.  I can’t make up my mind whether to focus on the writing or the designing.  I guess it doesn’t matter.  The daily content challenge marches on.

My Progress So Far

More than anyone else:

Gary is the reason I started creating hero profiles.

Now that I’ve started, I see that his profile may be less useful than my other heroes to other people.  But his will likely always remain the most important to me.

I fucking love this dude.  He changed my life.

More accurately, he teamed up with Nahko to save my life.

I’m not quite sure when I found him.  I featured him all the way back in one of my first posts for Greensboro SEO Pro.

365 Day Content Challenge Week 33: Black As Night

365 Day Content Challenge Week 33: Black As Night

As I started to put this one together—over two weeks ago now—I planned to call it "New Dawn." Coming back and knocking out this update to my Daily Content Challenge a week late, I thought the new title made more sense. Sorry Nahko. I usually use Healing Music for that...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 32: Renewed Commitment

365 Day Content Challenge Week 32: Renewed Commitment

Last week I allowed Inertia to push me along. This week I did not. This week I put a hard stop to my content streak. And I made some much needed decisions about this Daily Content Challenge. It's served me well so far. But recently I've come to realize that it needed...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 31: Inertia

365 Day Content Challenge Week 31: Inertia

One of the main goals of my Daily Content Challenge is to create a habit. And it seems that this objective may have already been achieved. ✔ Despite disheartening losses I continue to produce. ✔ Despite a new soul searching mandate last week I continue to produce. ✔...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 30: Moment of Weakness

365 Day Content Challenge Week 30: Moment of Weakness

Maybe I was onto something in last week's update. Or perhaps this is a bit more than simple Deja Vu. It very well could be an indication. Welp.  My content streak is back down to single digits after an apathetic Monday and Tuesday of this past week. 💩 Both days I...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 29: Relentless Restart

365 Day Content Challenge Week 29: Relentless Restart

After last week's flop, I'm back into double digits once again. This thang ain't no joke. I'm gaining more respect for guys like Seth Godin all the time. Still, my Daily Content Challenge marches on. Everything is going fine, minus a minor bout of... Deja Vu I've been...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 28: Double Trouble

365 Day Content Challenge Week 28: Double Trouble

Last week I was so confident. As I write this I'm fairly disappointed. 😩😔😢 On Wednesday though, that feeling was a bit more extreme. I broke my content streak again. Not only was I on the verge of a new record, but I also failed to produce new content (for myself) for...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 27: Marketing Machine

This thing is becoming matter of fact. Today was another good week. But it doesn't even seem worth bragging out. At this point, the goal of the 365-Day Content Challenge seems an inevitability. My longest streak so far is 96. I'm less than two weeks from breaking that...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 26: Rising Support

This week felt remarkably easy on the content front. I was saying the same thing just a few weeks ago. And now it's been several weeks since my last slipup. Perhaps I'm coming into my own with the Daily Content Challenge. There is certainly a strong... Base Building...

365 Day Content Challenge Week 25: Lucky Break

Lot's of resistance to break through this week. But it was indeed broken through. I got a little help I think, but I'm not mad about it. Couldn't be pulling back with BTC blowing back up. 😉📈💰 This one's for you, my spirit guides. Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you. 🙏💗🙏...
