Speaker 2 (00:36):
The Late Night Internet Marketing Podcast To
run yourself.
You want to know how to startand where to begin.
Can you get out your comfortzone, my friend?
Yes, you can do it right whenit's late at night.
(00:56):
At the end of the day, yourdreams burning inside.
So keep it up and you will findthat you're building your
business at night from a littlestudio in the big doing.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I am your host, mark Mason coming to you early in the
morning from the little studioin Dallas, texas.
The sun is just coming up and Ialways chuckle, because
(01:33):
late-night internet marketing isthe side hustle brand name that
I use to describe my onlinebusiness journey, because most
of the time, I'm working late atnight on my internet side
hustles after the kids go to bed, but sometimes, because my
schedule is whatever it is, Iend up working very early in the
(01:54):
morning, and this morning I'vebeen up early working on various
things, and now it's time torecord some content from you
guys, and I'm very excited aboutthat, because we're going to be
talking about my recentexperiences trying to journal
using AI, and this has been anamazing experience, so much so
(02:19):
that I'm prepared to recommendthat you give this a try.
So, first of all, let's talkabout why you would even want to
create a journal in the firstplace, and I can tell you,
especially if you're a sidehustle, but a side hustler, but
for entrepreneurs in general, Ithink journaling is incredibly
powerful, and I was recentlytalking to my buddy, cliff
(02:42):
Ravenscraft, who does a lot ofcoaching.
I was recently talking to mybuddy, cliff Ravenscraft, who
does a lot of coaching, and hetalked about the power of
journaling.
We discussed the differentthings that can come of it, but
for me I think for a lot ofpeople journaling is a way to
express your thoughts, to getorganized, to kind of work
through ideas that are in yourmind.
(03:03):
And that's one of the thingsthat's really helpful for me is
that when I force myself tojournal, I'm actually able to
organize my thoughts or exposeall my thoughts rather more
accurately so that they canbecome organized in my mind.
I find that to be reallyhelpful and that's the reason
(03:26):
that I've journaled in the past.
When I was talking to Cliff,one of the things that came out
that's incredibly powerful forjournaling is that when you go
back and look at your journalentries especially if you're
talking about how you feel,what's going on, what's
motivating you to do differentthings and so forth you can
(03:47):
really start to expose patternsin your daily behavior that you
can amplify or correct orleverage or whatever's
appropriate for that particularbehavior.
And I, in my journaling anddoing these exercises, I've
recognized things in my own lifelike I tend to plan daily and
(04:12):
over commit the amount of thingsthat I'm going to be able to do
in a day, and then the next day, when I haven't done all of the
things that I said I was goingto do, I feel a little
demotivated or frustrated bythat.
This comes out in my journalingand that's not necessarily
something that I wouldautomatically have noticed
(04:34):
without going back and lookingat journal entries.
So that's a simple butillustrative example of the
kinds of reasons that journalingis valuable.
Recently I tried to get backinto journaling and I had a
really tough time of it.
To be honest with you, I have avery busy life going on.
(04:57):
I've got my day job, I've gotkids in the house that are high
school age they keep us hoppingI've got this side hustle going
on, and my son plays baseball,as most of you know, and in fact
I'm recording this now beforewe're going to get in the car
and drive to another city inTexas for a four day long
(05:19):
baseball tournament, and so youknow I'm going to be away from
my recording equipment.
Things are crazy busy and itjust doesn't leave much time for
journaling.
At least that was the limitingbelief that I put on myself.
So I recently started trying tojournal again and I tried all
(05:41):
the things that people try.
I love paper journals.
I went out and bought a reallynice one.
I had these really nice pensand I tried paper journaling and
while I really enjoyed theexperience, finding 15 or 20
minutes to quietly sit and writedown my thoughts wasn't great.
And, and you know, the otherthing I really miss when I'm
journaling by hand is spellingcorrection, because I just can't
(06:05):
spell anymore.
Computers have ruined me inthat way.
I find it personally veryfrustrating that I don't spell
well.
I mean, I spell reasonably well, but I'm constantly looking at
words, wondering if they'respelled correctly and I just
find the whole thing, I don'tknow, not as enjoyable as it
should be.
So I started trying using what Ithink is the most popular, you
(06:29):
know, electronic journalingmethod, which is day one.
I've also tried things likeMichael Hyatt's full focus
planner and other kind of pseudojournaling methods.
I've tried bullet journalingand so forth, and the big
problem that I have is I justhad trouble making it stick.
(06:49):
So I got to thinking about whendo I have time to journal?
And one time that I have timeto journal is when I'm driving
in the car to work, because I dothat every day and I'm stuck
there and for years I've triedto find various ways to make
that time productive for me, andusually that has been turned
(07:12):
into consuming content.
I've tried creating content inthe car, tried various things,
but it occurred to me with thenew version of chat GPT 4.0 that
are 4.0, actually O for Omnithat I could actually journal in
the car.
And here's what I did.
(07:34):
So I created a custom GPT and ifyou're not familiar with custom
GPTs, custom GPTs are basicallyinstructions that you give the
core GPT engine that you cansave and use over and over again
.
They're instructions that tellthe GPT what behavior you want
(07:58):
it to have.
So, for example, the custom GPTthat I built, I told it you are
an expert in journaling forproductivity that's the phrase
that I use.
You're familiar with all formsof journaling, including bullet
journaling, the full focusplanner and other techniques of
(08:20):
journaling that are done for thepurpose of self-improvement.
I am using you as a dailyjournal and each time that I
make a journal entry I want youto ask me questions about how my
day was, how I'm feeling, howmy projects are going, what
(08:45):
projects are important to me,and at the end of the
conversation I will tell you themost important things that I
need to get done at the day.
When I'm done with eachconversation, each journal entry
, I want you to create a oneparagraph journal entry in my
(09:08):
voice, along with the key tasksthat I need to complete for the
day.
And so that was the custom GPTprompt that I built.
It said it would do that and Ihave been doing this.
So I get in the car and afterI'm on the highway and things
are all settled, I put chat GPTinto voice mode, just like I'm
(09:30):
talking to someone who might besitting in the car and I ramble
on for two or three minutesabout everything that happened
yesterday.
Hey, chat GPT.
Good morning.
This is my daily journal entryand I'm excited because
yesterday I finished these tworeally important tasks.
And here's what they were.
They they support my monthlygoals in the following way and I
(09:51):
liked that because I didn'tfeel all that great, because you
know, I had too much red winelast night and that gave me a
sinus headache or whatever.
I give it all this kind ofinformation that you might
normally give a journal abouthow I'm feeling, what my
behaviors and activities havebeen, what correlations that I'm
(10:12):
seeing in the moment, what Iwant to accomplish, what I have
accomplished and so forth.
And then at the end of that, Iasked ChatGPT to create a
journal entry for me and to,based on my summary and the
things that it knows about whatI want to get accomplished
during the week and the month,to go ahead and create a journal
(10:33):
entry along with tasks for theday.
And ChatGPT, by the way, at theend of that prompt I've also
experimented with, hey, chatgpt,ask me a few questions that
would help you create a journalentry.
That's also very effective andit will ask me questions like
how are you feeling, what wasthe best part of your day
(10:55):
yesterday, what challenges didyou face, and so forth.
It's pretty smart about that,given the custom GPT that I
created and as a result of thatit creates of the journal entry
was and how much it was in myvoice and how helpful it was to
(11:20):
have that journal entry.
So it creates it in the threadand then when I get to work, I
just copy that journal entrythat it created out of chat GPT
and into Apple notes.
Now I expect in the future I'llbe able to ask ChatGPT to
actually move the entry intoApple Notes itself, based on
(11:41):
what we saw at WWDC.
Eventually we're going to beable to control the built-in
apps from AI tools like ChatGPT.
So I think those features willcome, and maybe even the
built-in chat bot that Applewill eventually deploy will be
good enough to do this and willeliminate chat GPT, the discrete
(12:06):
chat GPT app, altogether.
It may be that we may be ableto have Siri do this kind of
journaling journal capture forus and this kind of summary for
us, since chat GPT is in theback end, but you don't have to
use chat GPT for this.
I think any large languagemodel, particularly Clotopus,
(12:28):
should be able to do this foryou as well.
I think it's fantastic toexperiment.
You know this goes to the bigthing.
I think, the big thing that weneed to be thinking about with
AI and so forth.
You hear a lot of people talkingabout how AI is going to ruin
(12:48):
everything, it's going to taketheir jobs, it's going to create
chaos and disaster and, youknow, some of those things may
even be true.
Change is inevitable and justlike when robots came into the
automotive industry and changedthe way we make cars, just like
when cars came in and displacedhorses, these new technologies
(13:11):
are going to bring with themchange.
I think the way to think aboutthese things is it's up to us to
make the most of that changeand make things better.
And, as a person who is underthreat from artificial
intelligence or who feelsthreatened by artificial
(13:33):
intelligence, if that's you, youneed to flip the script.
And I think it's not that AI iscoming for people's jobs.
What I truly believe is AI.
People who know how to use AIare coming for the jobs of
(13:53):
people that don't.
Ai is a tool.
It's no different than a pencil.
You know, when computers came,all the typists in the world
were worried about how computerswere going to make typing
obsolete and in many ways theyhave.
But those people went on to dodifferent and, quite frankly,
(14:14):
more valuable and higherleverage jobs the admins in my
fortune 500 company.
Today they are much morepowerful than the typing pool
was 30 years ago.
That's because the technologyhas lifted them up and given
them more capability to do morethings, and I think AI will do
(14:37):
that for us as well.
Ai will make things better, butit's up to us to find the
points of leverage so that weare the people who are using AI
effectively, coming for the jobsof the people who don't embrace
AI.
I really think that's the rightmindset.
(14:59):
It's a question of what AI makespossible and what we can do
with it, and in this case, thisjournaling is one great example
of something that there wasreally no effective way for me
to do before.
But now I can take this timethat is, quite frankly, mostly
(15:24):
wasted in my car and I can useit having a conversation with
ChatGPT, as if there were aperson in my car that I was
talking to about my day Supereffective.
Now here's where AI is betterthan journaling.
Ai journaling is better thanjournaling because I can ask
(15:45):
questions of my journal.
I can say, hey, journal.
I can say, hey, chad GPT.
Three weeks ago I was makinggood progress and now I'm not.
Can you uh, understand whythat's the case?
And it can see things like well, I see that you're spending
(16:06):
more time on project a thanproject B.
Or I can say, hey, chad GPT.
I've told you every time that Iwake up with a headache.
Can you see any patterns there?
Or hey, chad GPT.
I've told you every time that Iwake up with a headache can you
see any patterns there?
Or hey, chat, gpt.
What are the patterns in mymood that, you see, compared to
what I'm telling you, and I'vestarted asking it these kind of
questions and it does raiseinteresting observations and,
(16:28):
like any psychologist, I guessnot everything it says is true,
but it's definitely veryinteresting and I think that
it's the kind of thing thatwe're going to be able to use AI
as a super smart assistant, avery intelligent intern, someone
who's helping us accomplish ourgoals.
(16:49):
That's going to be a key usecase for AI and that's something
I think you can do.
So my call to action for yougive this a try.
Treat chat GPT as someone thatyou're telling what's going on
in your life, as a journalingpartner, and ask it to create
small records of thatconversation.
(17:10):
Build a journal, try it for aweek.
Then ask ChatGPT to summarizeyour week.
Tell me what you think.
If you think that's interesting, send me some feedback at
feedback at latenightimcom.
Drop me a line, let me know howthat goes for you, and if you
know someone who's interested inthis kind of thing, be sure and
(17:31):
tell them about this episode.
Super helpful for me when youspread the word about the show,
because then you know we canbuild this community and I can
help more people.
Until next time I hope you takeeverything that you're doing to
level 11, like in spinal tap,and I hope it's great for you
(17:51):
Until next week.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Hey, crazy week this week, but I'm really excited
about it.
I'm about to get in the car andhead out to Waco, texas.
My son's baseball team isplaying at Baylor University
this weekend, which is reallycool.
Super nice field, super nicefacility.
He'll pitch a little play, alittle second base and maybe
even a little left field, andthe only downside will be it's
(18:52):
hotter than the hinges of hell.
Already here in Texas we'reexpecting temperatures up near
100, and that's just really hotto be outside playing baseball.
It's hot to be outside watchingbaseball.
Fortunately I've got one ofthose travel baseball parent
tents that you put up like atthe beach, so at least I'll be
sitting in the shade and we'llall be drinking tons of water.
(19:15):
I'm taking two cases of waterand a cooler to keep it in, uh,
in the back of my, my vehicle,so we'll have that with us.
Try to stay hydrated allweekend.
But it should be fun.
The boys enjoy overnight trips.
You know their high school agenow, so they hang out in the
hotel and they go out to eat,and sometimes they borrow the
(19:36):
parents' cars and go do stuff inthe local town that we're in.
So it should be fun for them.
For me.
I'm going to take my laptop andtry to get some work done, but
anyway, I hope you have afantastic week and we'll see you
next week.

are going to bring with themchange.
I think the way to think aboutthese things is it's up to us to
make the most of that changeand make things better.
And, as a person who is underthreat from artificial
intelligence or who feelsthreatened by artificial
(13:33):
intelligence, if that's you, youneed to flip the script.
And I think it's not that AI iscoming for people's jobs.
What I truly believe is AI.
People who know how to use AIare coming for the jobs of
(13:53):
people that don't.
Ai is a tool.
It's no different than a pencil.
You know, when computers came,all the typists in the world
were worried about how computerswere going to make typing
obsolete and in many ways theyhave.
But those people went on to dodifferent and, quite frankly,
(14:14):
more valuable and higherleverage jobs the admins in my
fortune 500 company.
Today they are much morepowerful than the typing pool
was 30 years ago.
That's because the technologyhas lifted them up and given
them more capability to do morethings, and I think AI will do
(14:37):
that for us as well.
Ai will make things better, butit's up to us to find the
points of leverage so that weare the people who are using AI
effectively, coming for the jobsof the people who don't embrace
AI.
I really think that's the rightmindset.
(14:59):
It's a question of what AI makespossible and what we can do
with it, and in this case, thisjournaling is one great example
of something that there wasreally no effective way for me
to do before.
But now I can take this timethat is, quite frankly, mostly
(15:24):
wasted in my car and I can useit having a conversation with
ChatGPT, as if there were aperson in my car that I was
talking to about my day Supereffective.
Now here's where AI is betterthan journaling.
Ai journaling is better thanjournaling because I can ask
(15:45):
questions of my journal.
I can say, hey, journal.
I can say, hey, chad GPT.
Three weeks ago I was makinggood progress and now I'm not.
Can you uh, understand whythat's the case?
And it can see things like well, I see that you're spending
(16:06):
more time on project a thanproject B.
Or I can say, hey, chad GPT.
I've told you every time that Iwake up with a headache.
Can you see any patterns there?
Or hey, chad GPT.
I've told you every time that Iwake up with a headache can you
see any patterns there?
Or hey, chat, gpt.
What are the patterns in mymood that, you see, compared to
what I'm telling you, and I'vestarted asking it these kind of
questions and it does raiseinteresting observations and,
(16:28):
like any psychologist, I guessnot everything it says is true,
but it's definitely veryinteresting and I think that
it's the kind of thing thatwe're going to be able to use AI
as a super smart assistant, avery intelligent intern, someone
who's helping us accomplish ourgoals.
(16:49):
That's going to be a key usecase for AI and that's something
I think you can do.
So my call to action for yougive this a try.
Treat chat GPT as someone thatyou're telling what's going on
in your life, as a journalingpartner, and ask it to create
small records of thatconversation.
(17:10):
Build a journal, try it for aweek.
Then ask ChatGPT to summarizeyour week.
Tell me what you think.
If you think that's interesting, send me some feedback at
feedback at latenightimcom.
Drop me a line, let me know howthat goes for you, and if you
know someone who's interested inthis kind of thing, be sure and
(17:31):
tell them about this episode.
Super helpful for me when youspread the word about the show,
because then you know we canbuild this community and I can
help more people.
Until next time I hope you takeeverything that you're doing to
level 11, like in spinal tap,and I hope it's great for you
(17:51):
Until next week.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
Hey, crazy week this week, but I'm really excited
about it.
I'm about to get in the car andhead out to Waco, texas.
My son's baseball team isplaying at Baylor University
this weekend, which is reallycool.
Super nice field, super nicefacility.
He'll pitch a little play, alittle second base and maybe
even a little left field, andthe only downside will be it's
(18:52):
hotter than the hinges of hell.
Already here in Texas we'reexpecting temperatures up near
100, and that's just really hotto be outside playing baseball.
It's hot to be outside watchingbaseball.
Fortunately I've got one ofthose travel baseball parent
tents that you put up like atthe beach, so at least I'll be
sitting in the shade and we'llall be drinking tons of water.
(19:15):
I'm taking two cases of waterand a cooler to keep it in, uh,
in the back of my, my vehicle,so we'll have that with us.
Try to stay hydrated allweekend.
But it should be fun.
The boys enjoy overnight trips.
You know their high school agenow, so they hang out in the
hotel and they go out to eat,and sometimes they borrow the
(19:36):
parents' cars and go do stuff inthe local town that we're in.
So it should be fun for them.
For me.
I'm going to take my laptop andtry to get some work done, but
anyway, I hope you have afantastic week and we'll see you
next week.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
Ciao, Late night.
Internet marketing.
