The AI Life Playbook
Why resolutions fail (and the system that fixes them).
Happy New Year’s Eve.
It is December 31st. By now, you probably have a list of resolutions noted down in your phone or swimming around in your head.
I’m finally going to launch that side business
I’m going to get back into the dating scene
I’m going to get organized
We make these promises every year, but statistically, most of us drop them by February. Why?
Because of friction.
It is hard to write a business plan from scratch. It is exhausting to think of witty replies on dating apps. It is boring to meal plan every Sunday.
But 2026 will be different.
This year, we aren’t just using AI to summarize meetings, we are using it to design our lives.
Today I am introducing a new 5-part series: The 2026 AI Playbook.
I want as many people as possible to start the year with these tools, so I’m making this entire series free for everyone.
However, you need to be subscribed to get them delivered to your inbox. If you are seeing this on social media, subscribe below so you don’t miss Part 1 tomorrow.
Over the next few weeks, I’m going to investigate exactly how real people are using AI right now to reclaim their time, boost their income, and yes, even improve their love lives.
Here is the roadmap for that series:
1. The Income Accelerator 💸
The gig economy has evolved. We will look at how everyday people are using AI to generate digital products, write freelance content 10x faster, and build income streams without needing to be master coders.
The goal: Turn “I have an idea” into “I have an invoice” in days, not months.
2. The Relationship Algorithm ❤️
This is controversial, but it’s happening. The dating landscape has shifted. We will break down how people are using RIS apps and feedback tools to optimise their profiles and overcome the anxiety of the first move.
The goal: Stop swiping into the void and start actually connecting
3. The Life Admin Autopilot 🗓️
If you want to be more productive in 2026, stop doing tasks a machine can do. I’ll share workflows to instantly turn messy brain dumps into travel itineraries, meal plans, and budget trackers.
The goal: Hire AI as your personal executive assistant
4. Search 2.0 and the end of Googling 🧠
Stop scrolling through tens of pages of ads to find an answer. We will look at how to use AI as a 24/7 personalized tutor to master new skills or plan complex projects.
5. The Creativity Engine 🎨
How to use image and text generation not just for work, but for fun. From visualizing your home renovation to creating custom entertainment.
Your First Step for 2026
You don’t need to master all of this today. Enjoy the countdown.
But when you wake up tomorrow, check your inbox. We are going to start with Part 1: the Income Accelerator, because the best way to start the year is with a plan to fund it.
Hit reply and tell me: Which of these five areas is your biggest priority for 2026?
Here’s to a high-leverage new year.
