Today, I am talking to Jakob Greenfeld. I’ve been reading Jakobs blog posts for years now, and they’re as spicy as they’re thoughtful. There’s not a single post on there that feels unfinished. That’s quite impressive. Well, I think we’ll figure out why that is during our conversation. We’ll also chat about how to unlock critical thinking by writing and what it means to give yourself permission to do things your way.

Here’s Jakob Greenfeld.

In my conversation with Daniel Vassallo this week, I learned that Daniel uses social media —Twitter in particular— to find inspiration for his own work as a teacher and content creator. Intentionally doomscrolling Twitter to come up with writing prompts and business ideas? Why not!

If we consider this a strategic effort, not just wasting our time on social media, let's develop a few frameworks that lead to more tangible results.

Today, I want to talk about finding ideas, problems, and points of tension that hint at practical business opportunities on social media.

There is a huge difference between building a product, a business, and a company. It's a progression from one to the other, usually involving making significant changes in your life. Requirements change, and so does our lifestyle to make our dreams possible.

Ideally, we have a master plan on how to get there.

But in reality, we have to pay bills, take care of our family, and deal with the often unexpected hardships of life.

And while everyone's situation is unique, many entrepreneurs have found ways to finance their business-building journeys and make ends meet. That's what we'll be talking about today.
