    • okay, so I spontaneously hopped onto a 1h "niching practice" call with Marketing for Hippies which redirected me to a 3h "ideal customer" call
    • and I quite like the workbook from that—it has lots of concrete stuff
    • but I found the zoom workshop format a bit overwhelming
    • and I decided to hop off rather than half-engaging or whatever
    • it's interesting that I often find this kind of thing kind of overwhelming given that in school I was usually bored
      • well, I guess in general anything that's not self-paced is going to either be too fast or too slow for most people
        • (Tad Hargrave could be a great person to approach about running a GCI-style workshop for his content!)
          • I want to experience a GCI-style workshop for his content! I want to go to that!
          • Tad could also be an interesting hub for the GCI itself, especially since it's PWYW (inspired by him iirc!)
      • and often I am bored by online workshops and stuff too
      • oh and often I'm not that interested in group work, like talking to others about my stuff
        • I find it distracting. I can't get deep into my own questions & puzzles
        • fragmented attention
    • anyway, now I'm here, trying to figure out what to do with the rest of my day
    • I could do more niching / ideal customer stuff but I don't really feel like it's the next move for me. I want to take care of a ton of this other stuff on my intentions list
    • there's a bit at @ 22:35 in MS convo
      • parallel between ACX Samsara story and the quote "to a buddha, everyone is enlightened, to an unenlightened person, nobody is"
