The 10 best Mindset shifts I made in the last 4 years, Everything I learned in 2 minutes.

Every day as an achiever, you're faced with two choices:

1. Effort or Excuses?

• Results come from effort, not just intention.

• Excuses delay progress—effort accelerates it.

2. Adaptation or Resistance?

• Change can be the key to growth.

• Embrace change, don't resist it.

3. Clarity or Speed?

• Moving fast without clarity is like driving blindfolded.

• Clear direction enhances speed.

4. Open Mind or Fixed Mindset?

• A fixed mindset limits potential.

• An open mind cultivates continuous growth.

5. Balance or Overwork?

• A balanced life fuels sustainable success.

• Work smart, live well.

6. Break or Burnout?

• Burnout stunts progress.

• Breaks are not a luxury, they're a necessity for peak performance.

7. Focus or Distraction?

• Multitasking leads to diluted outcomes.

• Focus sharpens achievement.

8. Learn, Reflect, Plan.

• The past teaches, the future awaits.

• Live in the present to shape your future.

9. Knowledge or Application?

• Knowing is just the beginning, it's the application that counts.

• Power lies in applying knowledge, not just accumulating it.

10. Progress Over Perfection.

• Perfection is an illusion.

• Progress, no matter how small, is real and transformative.

🙌This week's podcast episodes...

😮Microsoft's AI software is gaining traction with enterprise customers

Microsoft (MSFT) says more of its customers are signing up for and using its generative AI-based Copilot software, a sign that its AI investments are beginning to pay off.

The tech giant is pouring billions of dollars into its AI efforts as it seeks to spread the technology across its Azure-based cloud offerings, suite of productivity products, and Windows operating system.

🤖Google says it’s fixed Gemini’s people-generating feature

Google paused its AI chatbot Gemini's ability to generate images of people in February due to complaints about historical inaccuracies. Now, the feature is being reintroduced exclusively to paid subscribers, with improvements aimed at fairness, but general users will only see these updates later.

😮Anthropic publishes the ‘system prompts’ that make Claude tick

Generative AI models lack true intelligence or personality, operating purely as statistical systems that follow system prompts to guide their behavior and tone.

Anthropic has taken a unique step by publicly disclosing the system prompts for its models, setting a new standard for transparency in the AI industry and potentially pressuring competitors to do the same.

🙌OpenAI, Adobe and Microsoft support California bill requiring watermarks on AI content

OpenAI, Adobe, and Microsoft now support a California bill requiring clear labeling of AI-generated content, which is headed for a final vote in August. The bill mandates watermarks in metadata and visible labels on large online platforms, following amendments that addressed previous concerns.

✨Amazon aims to launch delayed AI Alexa subscription in October

Amazon plans to launch a major AI-driven upgrade to Alexa in October, introducing a subscription-based model with new features like "Smart Briefing" for personalized news summaries and conversational shopping tools. The upgraded Alexa, aimed at increasing user engagement and boosting e-commerce sales, will also offer specialized experiences for children and improved voice recognition, with the original version remaining free.
