  How To Become Dangerously Self-Educated (with AI) 24.08.2026 20min

  Most people don't have a learning problem. They have an action problem. They buy the courses, binge the podcasts, fill the shelf, and somehow nothing in their life actually changes.In this episode, I break down why the way you were taught to learn is quietly failing you, and how to use AI to fix it so what you study finally sticks.Watch to the end, because the gap between knowing something and actually owning it is smaller than you think.✅ Get Your FREE AI Company Operating System here: https://go.danmartell.com/3RLAdzG👥 Are you building an AI software company? Partner with me: https://go.danmartell.com/4yX8Q6r---Prompts from the episode:1) Build your custom learning curriculum:"I want to self-educate on topics that help me solve the biggest problems I am currently facing. No shelf-help, no learning for the sake of learning. Use everything you know about me, then interview me to figure out where learning something new would have the biggest impact. Then do a deep research project to build me a list of resources to learn from. I believe in just-in-time learning, not just-in-case, only recommend things I can apply immediately. Don't give me the most popular resources. Give me the ones that fit my current struggles. Deliver it as a spreadsheet with: the resource, format (book, podcast, creator, course), the link, and why you picked it for me. If anything's unclear, ask before you start."2) Build your daily brief:"I want a daily brief on [your space, AI, business, finance]. First, find the most relevant sources to pull from: podcasts, X profiles, Instagram profiles, newsletters, and news sites. Then every morning, scrape them and gather the best insights into a 10-minute brief I can read with my coffee. Only include what's relevant to what I'm learning, cut the noise, no clickbait, no repeats."3) Grade your understanding (the Mirror Test):"Grade my explanation against this material. Where was I vague, wrong, or unclear?"4) The Book Architect (build a book from anyone's body of work):Voice and Style: Insightful, concise, emotionally resonant, and faithful to the public figure's tone.

  The next six months are going to pass whether you do something with them or not. Most people spend that time busy, not better, and end up in the exact same place they started.In this episode, I break down the simple reset I use to turn six months into the kind of change most people wait years for.

  You’re Not Behind (Yet): How to Build Your First AI Agent (Full Guide) 20.07.2026 22min

  By 2030, the biggest wave of new jobs isn't going to reward people who can chat with AI. It's going to reward people who can build with it.Right now most people are still typing prompts one at a time, while a small group is quietly building AI agents that run their businesses in the background.In this episode, I show you exactly how I went from doing the work to directing it, and how you can build your first AI agent this week even if you've never touched code.Watch until the end and you'll walk away with a repeatable way to think about every future agent you build.✅ Get Your FREE AI Company Operating System here: https://go.danmartell.com/3SXCfgk👥 Are you building an AI software company?

Create its three identity files: a SOUL file, an IDENTITY file, and a USER file (about me). Ask me any questions you need to fill these in accurately, then write all three."Manager agent prompt:"You are my Manager agent. You never do any task yourself. When a job comes in, your only move is to spin up a dedicated sub-agent for that one job, hand it the task, and let it run. One agent, one lane. If a job touches on multiple areas, split it into separate sub-agents, one per area. You coordinate and report back to me."Specialist agent prompt:"Your one job is my inbox — nothing else. You never step outside the inbox."Email voice study prompt:"Connect to my email and read my last 50 sent messages. Study how I actually write — my tone, my greetings and sign-offs, how long my sentences are, the phrases I use the most. Then write a style guide that captures my voice and tone. To test it: draft a reply to my newest unread email as me, and I'll tell you what's off so you can tighten it."▸▸ Subscribe to The Martell Method Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3XEBXez▸▸ Get My New Book (Buy Back Your Time): https://bit.ly/3pCTG78

  These 12 Minutes Will Save You 20+ Hours Every Week 02.07.2026 12min

  Most business owners are losing 20+ hours every single week to work that AI could be doing for them right now, and they don't even realize it.In this episode, I show you exactly how I use AI to claw back at least 20 hours a week so I can run over a dozen companies while traveling and barely touching my phone.Stick around because the way most founders are using AI today is the exact reason they're still drowning in their calendar.Prompts from the episode (run these on your AI with your calendar connected):1) "Audit the last 2 weeks of my calendar. Based on my quarterly goals doc in Notion, tell me what meetings I shouldn't be in, what stuff is below my pay grade, and where I'm wasting time. Ask me questions first to get better context."2) "Okay, based on that, build me a mock calendar of what I should actually be spending my time on. And walk me through your reasoning."3) "Now tell me the top 3 action items I need to focus on to make this change happen. Be specific.

  If you don’t understand these money laws, you’ll never be rich 19.05.2026 18min

  Most people never build real wealth, not because they're lazy or uninformed, but because they've been following rules designed to keep them comfortable, not wealthy. I went from broke at 22 to running a $100M company. What made the difference wasn't hustle or a hot stock tip. It was understanding that wealth operates on laws, not suggestions, and that most of the advice out there completely ignores them. In this episode, I break down the 5 laws that actually govern how money works, and why the people who understand them build wealth while everyone else stays stuck on the treadmill.
