1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
Sam Harris’ podcast this week was a conversation with David Frum and Andrew Sullivan that covered a wide range of topics, including the incredible communication power that we each now hold in the form of our smartphones, and how we’re all part of the media now:
“You’re carrying in your pocket more communication power than Walter Cronkite ever had at his disposal, and you have some responsibilities on how you use it. And I think one of the things we’ve seen in 2016 is that’s sort of a new thought to people. We talk about the media as if not every human being on earth with a cellphone is part of the media but we all are.”
2. Another wonderful film
The movie Good Time by the Safdie brothers was largely ignored at the box office, but it’s a cracker. It includes amazing performances from Robert Pattinson (of Twilight fame) and Benny Safdie. Here’s the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrR-SbCRgCU
3. This week’s glimpse of the future
This is a really important Wired article on how the threats to free speech have changed radically in a world where we’re all part of the media. https://www.wired.com/story/free-speech-issue-tech-turmoil-new-censorship
4. An encore performance of my transition masterclass
After the great response to Monday night’s transition masterclass I’ve decided to offer a replay. It’s called the zero-risk path to doing work you love without taking a pay-cut, and the feedback was fantastic.
There’s one replay at 1pm UK today (Thursday), but that’s it! You can register here if you act fast: https://www.jamiesmart.com/transitionwebinar/
5. This week’s 3 minute miracle
This is some breathtaking bass playing by newly emerging legend, Mohini Dey. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt5DblMRsiM
That’s it for this week!
Big love

4. Join the next intake of Project Jupiter
If you want to transition from full-time employment to something more fulfilling and on-purpose for you, you may be a good fit for the next intake of Project Jupiter (starting at the end of this month). Here’s how you’ll know if you’re right for Jupiter (and vice-versa):
– You are currently in full-time employment, but…
– You want to transition from your job to something more fulfilling and “on-purpose”
– You sense that it’ll probably take 1-3 years to complete the transition, but…
– Your goal hasn’t been getting much closer; it seems to stay the same distance away
– You want to make progress, but lack clarity about either the ‘what’ or the ‘how’
– You know that if you were clear on those, with a solid plan, you’d do what it takes to make it happen
– You’ve been thinking about it for long enough, and you’re ready to do something about it NOW
If that’s you, email Nikki at info@jamiesmart.com and type “Project Jupiter” in the subject line.
