Über diesen Titel

 The way you structure your time shapes everything else, including who else can reach you, and when. In this episode of Welcome to Cloudlandia, we get into two parallel time experiments that Dan and Dean are running, Dan's 70-day practice of using each day to "create a great yesterday," and Dean's intermittent phone fasting that divides the day into clear, protected zones. Dan traces the origin of his approach to a story from Leora Weinstein, who shifted his focus entirely from the uncertain future to building a reliable past, one day at a time. The result? His most productive December and January on record, and a measurable shift away from last-minute scrambling. They also explore how abundance, whether it's 14 kinds of corn flakes or an infinite choice of tasks, can paralyze decision-making rather than free it. The conversation moves through Dan's "Upping Your Game" tool (an evolution of the A/B/C model), AI bots taking on their creators' personalities, the surprising legal and real estate ripple effects of data centers, and a listener book recommendation about the history of money. Dan makes the case that the real cure for future anxiety isn't better planning, it's higher consciousness in the present. There's something almost game-like about committing to a better past each morning, and both Dan and Dean are finding that the scoreboard doesn't lie. This one's worth your time. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Dan's 70-day "great yesterday" practice turned December and January into his most productive months ever.Dean's intermittent phone fasting from 10 PM to noon creates four protected daily zones for deeper focus.Future anxiety may simply be a symptom of low present consciousness, not a problem that better planning solves.Dan's upgraded "Upping Your Game" tool helps identify which activities to eliminate, tolerate, or expand and where AI can step in as the "who."An East German twin's paralysis in front of 14 varieties of cornflakes illustrates how abundance without criteria leads to retreat, not freedom.AI chatbots tend to reflect the personality of the person who created them, including their blind spots and biases.

Hello there. There he is. From the West Coast. Dan Sullivan: Yes, I am straight Dean Jackson: To Cloud Landia. Cloud Landia is accessible from all points. Dan Sullivan: Yes, yes. But where you're sending from does make a difference. So I had a question for you. Dean Jackson: Tell me Dan Sullivan: From your experience, because you've had both, what's worse, 23 degrees Fahrenheit in Orlando, or minus 10 degrees in Toronto? Dean Jackson: Well, I will tell you this, that it came to the point last week that I actually had to wear pants one day. And so yeah, there's that, which I don't prefer, but today is a beautiful, we're right back now up to, let's see, it's 71 and sunny, probably similar to what you have right this moment. Dan Sullivan: Yeah, we're probably there. Yeah, the door is open. I'm looking out at, it's a nice place. I don't know if you've ever been here. Which one? La Jolla. Estancia. Dean Jackson: Yes. I've been to Estancia. Yeah, it's very Dan Sullivan: Nice. Nice place. Yeah. Yeah. We gotten in here just about this time yesterday, just a casual afternoon. Went to a really nice place, Maxima, who was with you last week? Maxima. And we went to an old hotel called the Empress Hotel. Dean Jackson: I know where that is. Dan Sullivan: Really nice restaurant. Dean Jackson: Oh, that's great. Dan Sullivan: Yeah, it's good. Dean Jackson: So the crowd is gathering. Dan Sullivan: I don't know if any of the clients are in yet. Our team just came in. I was sitting in the lobby. Lobby. And so half our team. Yes, Dean Jackson: Please. When is the actual, so you are in La Jolla, California for the Free Zone Summit, and that is on Tuesday is the actual day? Dan Sullivan: Well, it really starts Dean Jackson: Monday night. Dan Sullivan: Well, it starts Monday afternoon because Mike Kix is going to put on an AI from three to five o'clock. And then, Dean Jackson: Oh, there you go. Dan Sullivan: Then the Pacific Dean Jackson: Starts right in his backyard. Dan Sullivan: Yeah. Pretty well. Pretty well. And he's going to use one of our tools for part of his presentation. We have, I don't know if you remember an old tool. It was called the A BC model, and the A represented activities that you find really irritating. You hate them. Dan Sullivan: Yes. Dan Sullivan: And B represents okay activities that you don't hate them, you don't love them, you're just doing them more or less as a matter of habit. But it takes up your time and attention, and then they see as fascinating and motivating. And then you apportion what amount of time do you think you're spending on A and also B, and also C ...
