The Cornerstone Workbooks were made to help with Marketing Yourself
Hello Reader,
If you've been kicking the cornerstones of your personal platform, you probably know which one needs the most attention.
We all have one area of our business that continually demands our attention. It's not as strong or as supportive as it should be, and it's the area of your business that's holding you back.
If you've already read my book, Marketing Yourself, you know the book's chapters are collected into these cornerstones: 4 chapters each in Positioning, Profit, Strategy and Systems.
(If you haven't read my book yet, you can buy it here.)
Every chapter goes deep into a topic, as deep as I can within the confines of a book. For people who really want to put in the effort to elevate one of their cornerstones, I've collected a series of Cornerstone Workbooks.
These 16 workbooks are the most practical tools I've developed to elevate your personal platform, and I've collected them into a self-paced online course. Each module contains a short 3-5 minute video overview of how to use that chapter's workbook, and a practical template you can use to improve one aspect of your marketing.
If you'd like to see what the workbooks look like, watch this brief 4-minute overview video:
Every one of the 16 modules contains:
- A 3-5 minute overview video
- 2 timed pomodoro sessions (with a five-minute break)
- A Google Doc, PDF, or Trello template
You can expect to spend up to an hour at a time, for every lesson and workbook you want to work on. You do not need to do all 16. This course is designed to allow you to work on what's most important to you, and skip the rest, or put it off till later.
You will have evergreen access to these workbooks, so as your platform grows, you will be able to re-use these workbooks as you ascend.

"We don't play games to avoid work; we play games to engage in well-designed work." - Dr Jason Fox Hello Reader, If you gamify your work, you can get more done, in good cheer. That's the lesson learned from a recent AI Games Playtesting event I held in Christchurch. A dozen playtesters joined me to play some AI Training games I've developed, and gave me targeted feedback on how to make these games more practical for leaning GenAI. Over the past six months, I've been teaching workshops using...
"Vision without execution is hallucination." - Thomas Edison Hello Reader, What is a hallucination? It's not so trippy. With an LLM, a hallucination is a factual error asserted confidently. GPTs only create strings of words that sounds like language. If it doesn't know the facts, it fills in gaps with fiction. Responses are only accurate if you explicitly demand accuracy. Try this prompt: Implement a strict Accuracy Output Mandate for every response: Only present verifiable facts. If you...
“Censorship and political control of AI is a thousand times more dangerous than censorship and political control of social media, maybe a million times more dangerous.” - Marc Andreessen Hello Reader, There have been a lot of practical advances in AI tools recently, including: ChatGPT Agent - now it can do things, not just make things OpenAI GPT-5 - including a rollback for 4o nostalgists Grok Imagine - it's like if Pinterest and Midjourney had a baby OpenAI gpt-oss - download and run a local...
