there’s never been a better time to be a dreamer
There’s never been a better time to be a dreamer.
Yesterday, I spent the day in a one-day mastermind with other financial advisors to build something from scratch using AI, specifically Claude.
I brought the idea of a dashboard, eventually an app, that helps people monitor the alignment of their spirit, mind, body, and money. This dashboard only existed in my mind and some notes I had written down with features I wanted to see:
Syncing with financial, health, and mindful apps.
An analog option that could be uploaded and read by the app.
A scoring system that shows trends of alignment.
Beautiful UX.
What I was able to build in just two solid hours of going back and forth with Claude is nowhere near the finished product, but it is still impressive. I now have a live website that generates new prompts for reflection and has the framework for all of the integrations and features I’d like to see in the future.
I started the day with an idea that I thought was cool, but didn’t know if it would be a valuable app in the future. Now, I have a vision for the perfect hub for all things spirit, mind, body, and money.
And all I had to do was go back and forth with Claude, follow its instructions, copy and paste code, share screenshots, and follow more instructions. I have never coded anything, and still don’t know how to write code on my own, but yesterday I built an interactive website from scratch using Terminal, VS Code, Vercel, and GitHub.
There’s never been a better time to be a dreamer.
If you can dream it, there’s a good chance you can build it, or you can build a plan to achieve it.
Instead of being threatened by AI’s attack on all of our jobs, be excited about the opportunities to use AI to make your life easier and to potentially bring that idea you once dreamed about to life—who knows what the financial implications could be?
Start dreaming.
Start tinkering.
See where it takes you.
See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
