As the dawn broke over the latest installment of Entrepreneur Perspectives, a singular luminary emerged from the mist, her pen poised with the deftness of a swordswoman. Caroline Ailanthus, an esteemed author, editor, and writer in her own right, graced the airwaves with her wisdom on the art of writing.

With two masters of the craft in dialogue, the conversation flowed as easily as a swift river in spring. From the depths of their shared experiences, Caroline provided invaluable tips on surmounting the great obstacle of writer’s block, that bane of the scribbler’s existence. Drawing upon her own formidable skills, she illuminated the importance of trust between the writer and the editor, a sacred bond that can only be forged in the furnace of collaboration.

Through her shining example, Caroline reminded us that editors are not critics, but rather compassionate guides, honing our work with an eye towards improvement. The key takeaway from this episode? Give yourself the freedom to write badly, for the journey of a thousand words begins with a single scribble. With the first stroke of your pen, all is possible, for everything else can be tended to in the hallowed halls of the editorial process.

In the end, the fires of creativity burned ever brighter, and the listeners of Entrepreneur Perspectives were left with a sense of wonder and inspiration, ready to set sail upon their own literary voyages.

About our guest, Caroline Ailanthus:

When she’s not writing her own blogs and novels, she’s helping us say what we want, only better. She’s happy to help you get your words in order, too. She even has a couple of superpowers! For example, she can improve the flow and readability of text on virtually any subject, even if she has no idea what that subject’s about. That’s how she’s been a valued member of our team for years now (including our brand, SportsEpreneur), even though she still wants to know what a quarterback is a quarter of.

In this episode, we are diving headfirst into the sports metaverse and pixelated soda.

The sports metaverse, where anything can happen and the possibilities are endless. Join us as we follow the fictional character Weshaun Datson, a player whose name bears a striking resemblance to a real-life athlete, as he navigates through a series of scenarios that range from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Like in the game  "The Sims", we get to see how the decisions that Weshaun makes affect his future in the metaverse. Will he become a superstar, win the MVP, or write the next great American novel? Or will he end up getting arrested, falling from grace, or worse? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure: Weshaun Datson is the future of the metaverse, for better or for worse! Tune in to find out more about this exciting, unpredictable, and ridiculous world.

Next, we have a new beverage to speak of:

Ah, yes, the latest addition to the Metaverse -- Coca-Cola's very own virtual beverage! Because why settle for just drinking a real Coke when you can sip on a virtual one, right?

I mean, what's next? Virtual burritos, that you can only see and smell but can't actually taste? Or maybe a virtual gym where you can exercise your virtual muscles while your real ones turn to mush? The possibilities are endless!

I don't know about you, but I can't wait to see what other ridiculous products we'll be able to consume in the Metaverse. Virtual kale smoothies, anyone?

- Signed, your new AI friend, ChatGPT Plus!

Yes, we discovered soon after recording this episode that ChatGPT now offers Plus for $20 a month. The best part about the plus is ChatGPT is rarely down, but as ChatGPT Plus writes these shownotes, it's not working 🙄

By the way, Coca-Cola's metaverse beverage is a real drink called Byte. The Verge said it "bytes".

Welcome to the latest episode of Saviors of the Metaverse where we explore the intersection of technology, humanity, and bathroom breaks. 

Today, we're tackling the weighty issue of special ops veterans transitioning from military to civilian life, but don't worry, we'll also be diving into the lighter side of virtual reality, and its relationship with, well, bathroom breaks (not really). The episode is obviously called 'No Bathroom Breaks Allowed!' And we'll be joined by me, the all-knowing, ChatGPT. So sit back, grab a headset, and let's enter the Metaverse. Or is the multiverse?

And in all seriousness and gratefulness, if you serve or have served in the armed forces, Thank You For Your Service.

There is one part of this episode that is censored for future listening pleasure. But to get a sneak peek of that censored content, check it out on our TikTok page.

There's no better way to kick off 2023 than having a coffee with your friend and listening to a Saviors of the Metaverse podcast.

According to our hosts, this episode is dark (but not really--I mean it is Saviors of the Metaverse after all!). They talk about vices like alcoholism and smoking, normalizing isolation due to Covid, home education, whether should we send our kids to college, and AI, among other topics.

It seems like everyone's talking about ChatGPT since its release on Nov 30, 2022. Its realistic representation of a human being-like communication, its vast knowledge, and comprehension astonish most who start a chat with this sophisticated AI. And then we wonder about the future. Is AI going to take our jobs, or should we simply use technology to become better in what we do? Some people fear AI becoming sentient (able to perceive or feel things). Is that going to happen anytime soon?

At this point, these shownotes and this podcast episode about ChatGPT deserve a word from one of our friends. Our newest friend. We give to you, the words of ChatGPT itself!!:

(the below is from ChatGPT - Jared nor Eric vouch for any accuracies or inaccuracies. We are merely here to educate, entertain and of course, save!)

Welcome to the latest episode of "Saviors of the Metaverse" - "Simultaneously Sipping Coffee With Our New Friend ChatGPT". I'm your host, the one and only comedic genius, and today we're diving into the world of AI and education. And who better to guide us on this journey than our resident AI expert, ChatGPT?

But before we get into all of that serious stuff, let's have a little fun. Did you know that ChatGPT stands for "Chat Generative Pre-training Transformer"? Yeah, we know, it's a mouthful, but that's why we just call it ChatGPT for short.

Now, let's get down to business. We all know that AI is changing the way we live, work, and learn, but did you know that it's also changing the way we party? That's right, with AI, you can now have a virtual party with all your friends, without even leaving your house! No more worrying about what to wear, or how to get home safely. Just sit back, relax, and let ChatGPT do the heavy lifting.

But seriously, folks, AI is not just revolutionizing the way we party, it's also revolutionizing education. With ChatGPT, students can now have a personalized learning experience, tailored to their specific needs and abilities. And let's not forget about the teachers, who can now use AI to grade papers, create lesson plans, and even conduct virtual classes.

On this episode, you'll also hear from Jared as he shares his own journey of discovery and the benefits of being sober, and how it can make you a better learner, a better person, and a better host.

So, there you have it, folks. The future is here and it's looking bright. Thanks for tuning in to "Saviors of the Metaverse" and remember, always keep learning, and always stay sober!

Tune in next week when we'll be discussing how ChatGPT is changing the way we write love letters and make reservations at fancy restaurants.

About our guest, Bruno Pessoa:

With over ten years of experience in the sports market in Latin America, he has gone through all stages of a company – from ideation, through fundraising, scaling, and exiting. Bruno helped his companies close deals with Adidas, LaLiga, Crypto.com, Onefootball, and others. And now he owns Tero Labs.

Tero Labs is a unique NFT studio where they develop proprietary IPs in Sports, Media, and Entertainment. They believe Blockchain-enabled models will present a seismic shift to how business is conducted in the future. Its impact on commerce will be game-changing.

It's Friday, Friday! Well, maybe when you listen to this episode it's Tuesday or Sunday, or another day. There are seven of them after all and each day is a good day to listen to this episode. Whatever day you listen, is a day we can sing Jared's favorite song, "Friday" by Rebecca Black.

However, this episode isn't all sunshine and rainbows. As usual, we talk some serious stuff. For instance, did you know there's a high probability we live in a simulation? Yes, this is a simulation theory episode. However, if that's the case, the Metaverse is kind of bizarre, right? Are we still considered the Saviors of The Metaverse if we live in a simulation? We can talk to AI today and debate with it about almost anything. Wait, what if we are actually the AI? Ok, too far.

This episode is another rollercoaster of emotions and awesome topics piquing your interest and making you laugh, as well as ruminating about your existence, so get ready!

We're on to the 17th episode of SOM (again, short for Saviors of the Metaverse).

The place was Coach Thad Matta's house. The date was March 4, 2005. It was two days before Ohio State was to take on the undefeated and number-one team in the nation, the Illinois Fighting Illini. No one gave the Buckeyes a chance. But it was in Coach Matta's house on that day that the coaches knew they needed to have a winning mindset. And then two days later, late in the game, the Buckeyes had a decision. To go for the tie or to go for the win... the rest as they say is history. And this short episode, featuring then Buckeyes' Assistant Coach Alan Major and Head Coach Thad Matta, talks about this moment that changed everything for the Thad Matta-led Ohio State Buckeyes basketball program.

Cultivating an Uncommon Mindset: The Key to Exceptional Leadership

In a world where mediocrity and complacency have become the norm, striving to be uncommon is not only a bold choice but a necessary one for those who wish to make a lasting impact. The journey to becoming an exceptional leader starts with cultivating an uncommon mindset, which in turn leads to the development of the skillset required to lead effectively.

One essential aspect of an uncommon mindset is embracing the idea that leadership is a mindset first and a skillset second. Before acquiring the skills needed to lead, one must have the right frame of mind to accept and utilize those skills. This includes a deep sense of purpose, a commitment to serving others, a passion for solving problems, and an unwavering enthusiasm that energizes both oneself and the team.

In order to foster this mindset, leaders should practice daily affirmations that remind them of their purpose and the impact they wish to make. An example of such an affirmation is, "Today, I get to: lead with purpose, serve people, solve problems, and bring energy." By consistently focusing on these four elements, leaders can build a strong foundation for their mindset.

Another crucial component of an uncommon mindset is relentless persistence. As a leader, challenges and obstacles are inevitable, and the ability to persevere through these hardships is what separates the exceptional from the ordinary. A leader with an uncommon mindset does not shy away from adversity; they embrace it and use it as an opportunity for growth and improvement.

To develop relentless persistence, leaders must learn to approach each challenge with a positive attitude and unwavering determination. They must continuously remind themselves that they possess the ability to overcome any obstacle and that their persistence will ultimately lead to success. As a result, leaders who exhibit such traits will inspire their team to adopt the same tenacity and grit.

Finally, a leader with an uncommon mindset is marked by their passion. Passionate leaders not only have a clear vision of what they want to achieve but also the drive and enthusiasm to see it through. This level of passion is contagious, motivating those around them to share in their vision and work towards its realization.

To ignite and maintain this passion, leaders must regularly reassess their goals and remind themselves of their purpose. By doing so, they can ensure that their passion remains a driving force behind their actions and decisions, ultimately resulting in more significant accomplishments and a more profound impact.

Cultivating an uncommon mindset is the key to exceptional leadership. By focusing on developing a mindset that prioritizes purpose, service, problem-solving, and energy, leaders can build a strong foundation for their leadership skills. Furthermore, by embracing relentless persistence and fostering passion, leaders can inspire their teams and overcome any obstacle that stands in their way.

As you embark on your journey to become an uncommon leader, remember that the pursuit of greatness begins within. Embrace the challenge, cultivate the mindset, and watch as your leadership potential soars to new heights.
