I just don’t know if I can walk around every day filming myself, capturing my every thought, putting so much emphasis and importance on ‘I.’
How does this look instead as how we move about to build better we, aside from a hefty mailing list? I mean if we are reinventing ourselves for now and forward, with AI looming large, how does this become less of a vanity super SME stance and more of an ‘us’ thing without only being a bunch of zoom meet ups?
I’m just throwing this out there because I would become altogether too bored of myself after one week of following myself around and listening to myself on film. I’m guessing there are probably a lot out there like me when it comes to this 😂
But you see what I am getting at here is not how it’s referred to as a pronoun— I find your prompts helpful but only for someone that is looking to be ‘the’ influencer. How does this apply now on a growing landscape of non real identities promoting “itself” with all the AI tools to create all of what you are suggesting as if it’s always been there?
Suddenly this about more than the authenticity and promotion of the ‘I’ but how your lessons learned could work for more of a ‘we’ environment? Any thoughts on how it might shift?
I don't think this is about being an influencer at all. This is about sharing one's self in their most natural form; raw, no makeup, unfiltered, spur of the moment; hit publish without thinking about it.
Given that the world is desperately trying to make autonomous AI bots run our lives, our stories, musings, missives, and sense of self are the best things we have going for us.
As far as sharing everything, that's subjective as well. As I mentioned, I don't mean every single moment, but instead, what if we stop worrying about the curated takes and editing, but instead, share the side of us that shows our humanity. If I share my story as I've experienced it, I assume some will get some value from it even if it's merely for entertainment purposes.
The X-factor here is that it's all relative to what it is you're trying to accomplish. If you're trying to build a community, then yes, the *we* is important, but if you're trying to build a business around your creativity, it's almost implied that the people paying attention are there for the *you.*
When I watch Blake's videos, I am not concerning myself with greater appeal to the community, or what lessons I can learn from him. I'm interested in hearing his latest monologue because his message resonates.
What about ‘We’?

I think that’s a semantic issue. All pronouns are royal.

Helpful. Thank you!
