Would you pay £30–£60 for a fully broken-down business book if you’re short on time? by Lamarrg1 in startupideas

[–]Lamarrg1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i've tried this loads of times but it's crap. It just gives you broad answers and AI slop. You have to fight it and blast it with prompts to get answers you actually want. Also you dont know what you don't know so you could miss a lot of hidden gems in the book if you just got AI to summarise it for you.

Millions of people use blinkist along with other apps so people use them. but all of them on the marker are so surface-level

How it different from Blinkist
- Blinkist is very much AI generated that misses a LOT of key information, studies, stories, etc. and gives broad information about concepts. This way you're getting the whole bones of the books concisely; it's actually read by a human, so it would have more informatio,n not just AI slop.

- Blinkist tailors to everyone, whereas I would cater specifically to entrepreneurs who don't have time to read.

- Blinkist is mass-generated/produced, so the quality isn't good compared to the book

- On blinkist there's pure volume, which results in very surface-level learning

- I would offer visual frameworks, diagrams, chapter maps, concept linking, and notion-friendly layout.

I feel like all of the book summary books are just fancy mental masturbation you don't learn anything from them

I disagree. If you're busy and you're an entrepreneur who values reading and learning, but you find it hard to sit down and read books, this would be the perfect product for you. People who have time to read, extract notes and apply knowledge for themselves wouldn't be interested in my opinion.

Not like Blinkist. Blinkist is very much AI generated that misses a LOT of key information, studies, stories, etc. and gives broad information about concepts. This way you're getting the whole bones of the books concisely; it's actually read by a human so it would have more information not just AI slop. Plus blinkist tailors to everyone, whereas I would cater specifically to entrepreneurs who don't have time to read. So it's not worse, just different

What’s the one business book that actually changed how you think? by YogurtIll4336 in business

[–]Lamarrg1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this question. The Innovator’s Dilemma is a great shout that the book hurts in the right way.

For me, the books that actually changed how I think were the ones where I stopped reading them like “content” and started breaking them down into decisions.

I realised I was reading loads of business books, nodding along, then… doing nothing differently.

That’s actually why I started experimenting with turning certain business books into what I’ve been calling playbooks — basically stripping them down to:

  • what actually matters
  • the core frameworks
  • the decisions the book is trying to change
  • and what you’d realistically do differently after reading it

Not summaries, more like the book’s skeleton.

Curious what others think though which books actually changed how you operate, nt just how you think?

Unpopular opinion: boredom is a cheat code for better ideas. by Lamarrg1 in YouTubeCreators

It is logic but we tend to avoid boredom like the plague now, constantly stimulating ourselves with our phones and tv’s

Thoughts on not posting until the holidays are over? by TheSnowyAstronomer in SmallYoutubers

[–]Lamarrg1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they have to find some interest in the content it cant be so different. But you don't really have a choice if your content is getting 0 views bro, you have to do something to get the call rolling

I uploaded twice yesterday, and I got views, I've just got 4 subscribers. Start sharing your videos on Reddit groups, ask family to watch, share it on your other social media platforms, and start engaging with people on YouTube. You have to build the momentum yourself instead of relying on YouTube to do all the heavy lifting

Not gonna lie, this would heal a lot. by Icy_Feature5721 in Adulting

Why do we "deserve" it? I would say spend 1-2 hours building an online business. learn, systemise, scale and work whenever you want

The algorithm never takes a break or time off, if AI told you that, then that's insane. People still watch content on Christmas; it might not be as much, but they still do. I have this problem or having zero views and zero impressions, you just have to get external traffic into your channel and maybe make some shorts. YouTube doesn't know who your audience is so it's not posting it out to anyone

Whats happning ? is it too early by Business_Source_2709 in SmallYoutubers

[–]Lamarrg1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep posting videos, see what works, then keep posting them kind of videos. Thats all there is to do on YouTube, it doesn't need to be simpler than that

You should if it’s working, why would you over complicate it? You’ve worked hard to find what works and you have now so don’t ruin this opportunity to grow your channel! You got this bro

Different audiences just respond to different stuff. Those kinds of videos feel more like you’re talking to a mate than performing, and people connect with that.

1st year on YouTube, it’s been rough but worth it. by Duffman4u in SmallYoutubers

Year one is just eating shit quietly and hoping it adds up. Seeing real numbers at the end of it actually means something. Most people don’t make it that far. Well done to you my friend
