Brothers,

You asked how to learn about AI and how it applies to your businesses and careers. Here's the plan. This is the same framework I built for some of my most successful business mentees - it works because it's built on action, not theory.

Check off each module as you complete it. Your progress is saved automatically.

Week 1: Understand the Power

~35 min

Start here. These videos show you exactly how AI tools work together for market research, competitive analysis, and business strategy. This is the foundational "aha" moment.

Why these matter: Perplexity hunts down market intelligence. NotebookLM synthesizes your data into strategic insights. That's directly applicable whether you're scaling a startup, managing teams, or building personal brand.

Week 2: Understanding AI Workflows

~17 min (watch twice!)

This is the key insight: You don't need more tools. You need better workflows.

Grace walks through 8 specific workflows that show you how to chain Perplexity + NotebookLM, Claude + Gemini, and others together to create a personal team of specialists.

Grace Leung shows you how to combine AI tools into powerful workflows. Watch this video twice - once to understand the concepts, then again to identify which workflows fit YOUR work.

Key takeaway: The magic isn't in any single tool - it's in how you combine them. Pick 2-3 workflows from the reference table below that match your needs.

Week 4: Make It Your Own

~1 hour

Here's what separates the guys who talk about AI from the guys who actually use it:

  1. Pick ONE workflow from Grace's Week 2 video that matches your biggest business or personal pain point / opportunity
  2. Run ONE experiment using that workflow (30 min to 1 hour max)
  3. Message me on Facebook what you've discovered
Review Week 2 Workflows

This Is Non-Negotiable

This isn't about binge-watching content. This is about understanding how to think like a strategist WITH AI as your team. That's the real skill that's going to separate the top performers from everyone else in your industry.

Remember: This isn't about mastering every tool. It's about building a practical AI habit that makes your life easier. Start simple, stay consistent.

The Bottom Line

You've got:

  • Businesses to scale
  • Teams to lead
  • Careers to advance

These tools aren't distractions. They're force multipliers.

The guys who understand how to leverage AI strategically in the next 5 years will be operating at a completely different level. Let's make sure you're one of them.

Final Notes

  • These tools are free to start or ~$20/month
  • The ROI on your time is incredible
  • Your competition is sleeping on this
  • You won't be

Let's go, Bros.
