Things when we're talking about ethics, we're talking about nuance, we're talking about human values.

I like to be mostly creative myself and then use AI as a content partner.

So I like to come up with new ideas because I always ask myself questions like how to do it in a different way or if I was in this profession, how would I look at this?

I think creativity is connecting dots from other fields.

My meditation, that's self-awareness exercise, mindfulness exercises, and the inner work, the intra-personal development,

I also want to just not lose my compassion and my empathy, feeling on other people's life.

Sometimes when we're so data-driven, we forget they're human beings.

Even something simple like we have students in every country in the world, we have over 100 million downloads on our podcasts,

a couple million on YouTube, but it's so easy to look at stats and forget their stories behind them.

So in our Slack even, we take all those joy stories, these testimonials, we take screenshots, put it up on our Slack channel called Joy Stories, and every time somebody logs in from work, first thing they start today, wherever they are in the world, they have to read those first just to remind people why we do what we do.

So I feel like those are human elements.

First of all, we teach people the software, how to learn faster, how to learn a language, how to read faster, how to remember fax figures, give speeches without notes, not have to use a teleprompter when they make videos or whatever it is like that.

That's more the program software.

I want to remind people how important it is to also take care of the hardware.

which is that three pound matter between our ears also.

As I could teach somebody great techniques on how to learn faster or how to focus better, but if they have brain fog or they're struggling with mold or they're not sleeping or whatever, they're just not going to get the kind of results that they're hoping for.

So just four things just to think about that are easy enhancements is to take your meds, M-E-D-S, just really quick.

The M is meditation.

I don't know if you have a mindfulness practice yourself.

I think nature is a wonderful way.
