Ai, Bitcoin & Media. My 3 Core Focus for 2025 and Beyond

As I look ahead to 2025 and beyond, I’ve been asking myself one fundamental question: What’s truly worth my time, energy, and focus?

After breaking it down from first principles, three things stand out: AI, Bitcoin, and Media.

These aren’t just passing trends. They’re the foundation of where the world is headed. More importantly, they align with how I think, how I build, and how I want to live. Here’s why these three areas are my focus—and why they might need to be yours too.

1. Bitcoin: The Core of Financial Conviction

Let’s start with Bitcoin. At its core, money serves three purposes: a store of value, a medium of exchange, and a unit of account.

However, fiat currency is failing as a store of value due to inflation, debt, and reckless monetary policies that continue to erode its worth.

Bitcoin flips the script by being finite, decentralized, and resilient—more than just digital money, it’s an independent financial system free from manipulation.

My conviction is clear: in 10 years, when my grandkids ask, “Did you get Bitcoin when it was cheap?” I want my answer to be, “Yes, and here’s why.”

To me, Bitcoin isn’t just an investment; it’s a hedge against a broken system, a means of financial security, and the future of money.

That’s why I’m not diversifying across 20 different cryptocurrencies—Bitcoin is the foundation, and everything else is just noise.

2. AI: The Ultimate Force Multiplier

AI is the most powerful tool we’ve ever created to amplify human potential. If we break down work from first principles, it’s simply the application of energy to create value—and AI multiplies that energy.

As one person, my time and focus are limited, but with AI, I can extend my capabilities beyond human limits.

For example, AI handles repetitive tasks so I can focus on strategy and creativity, processes massive amounts of data to extract insights in seconds, and helps generate content, automate workflows, and scale my efforts.

It’s not about replacing people; it’s about leveraging technology to achieve more with less. But AI isn’t just a tool—it’s a mindset shift.

Every day, I ask myself: How can I get more out of the same effort? How can I focus on impact instead of input? For my plans in 2025, AI isn’t optional—it’s the engine that will drive everything I do.

3. Media: The Amplifier of Everything

If Bitcoin is the foundation of financial security and AI is the tool for leverage, then Media is the amplifier.

At its core, influence is the ability to shape ideas, narratives, and decisions—and today, Media is the most powerful way to amplify that influence.

While AI and Bitcoin are game-changers, without Media, they remain invisible. Media matters to me because it allows me to share what I’m learning, attract like-minded people who want to build the future, and build trust at scale through YouTube, newsletters, and social platforms.

If Bitcoin represents the future of money, Media helps onboard others into that vision. If AI represents the future of work, Media allows me to show people what’s possible.

But Media isn’t just about building an audience—it’s about building relationships. The formula is simple: share valuable insights, attract opportunities, and build long-term trust. For me, Media isn’t just a side hustle—it’s the glue that ties everything together.

4. The First Principles Flywheel: Why These Three?

Bitcoin, AI, and Media are three focus areas that reinforce each other, creating a flywheel effect that strengthens over time.

Bitcoin provides financial stability, allowing me to focus on what matters without worrying about failing systems, while AI gives me leverage to scale my efforts without burning out.

Media then amplifies my ideas, ensuring my work reaches and impacts the right people. Bitcoin funds innovation, AI drives productivity, and Media attracts opportunities—forming a loop of unstoppable momentum.

Final Thoughts: What’s Your Focus for 2025?

For me, AI, Bitcoin, and Media aren’t just investments; they are the foundation of how I want to build my future, shaping the way I work, create, and grow.

These three pillars provide financial security, leverage, and influence, allowing me to focus on what truly matters.

So, I’ll leave you with this question: if you stripped everything down to the basics—removing distractions and noise—what would you choose to focus on?
