Harnessing the Currency of Attention
Join the Court for $1/month: ko-fi.com/misterpmacd
I'm exploring the topic of attention and how it holds immense power in our lives. We discuss my personal experience with attention and how it has evolved from childhood to adulthood. I go on to highlight the views of high-level influencers like Gary Vee, Alex Hormozi, Andrew Tate, and Iman Gadzhi, who consider attention to be an essential and valuable currency.
The video delves into what makes attention so valuable, emphasizing how it fulfills three of the core human desires of being seen, known, and loved. Attention is considered a superpower that can be converted into something else, such as money or power, and can be given in exchange for informative, entertaining, or personal content.
I also discuss how attention can be a tool to gain influence, citing examples of KZreadrs who use their large audiences to promote products or services. However, attention can also be taken away, as demonstrated in the case of Andrew Tate, who lost access to social media platforms and was thereby cut off from a global scale of attention.
The video also provides insights into how to gain attention, highlighting the importance of providing an abundance of value to your content consumer, which leads to word-of-mouth marketing and influence. The speaker emphasizes that it is essential to have a reason for seeking attention and to offer something valuable that people are willing to exchange their attention for.
Finally, the video touches on the spiritual aspect of attention, discussing why humans value attention and how it relates to our desires for connection and purpose. I encourage you all to understand the power of attention and how to navigate the creator economy.

Thanks Yama, just checked out your channel and gave you a sub. Looks like you've been putting out some solid videos. Would love to connect on IG or Linkedin.
Great video - it's also a status thing, Seth Godin talks about this - people don't buy exotic cars cause they necessarily like cars, they buy it for status! when providing extreme value for a customer, you increase their status. And when you increase their status, they gain more status by telling their friends about you and it's a continuous chain of value and status increase. But the key is to provide a service people will talk about.

You’re very outspoken, brother! Watched your video about Alex Hormozi, now onto this one and I gotta say, despite me presumably being about your age, I imagine, I’m eating up your content here as powerful brain food; I’m happy to call you one of my many mentors I follow along listening to because you’re really adding value to my portfolio I’m assembling on my business journey. As someone who just opened up an LLC last year for real estate investing, listening to your content builds my character. So I wanna say thank you and best of luck to you on your journey! I hope it’s fruitful for you with wherever your endeavors lead you!

Watched the last video and came to this one just like someone else said in the comments. Love this so far, I have given you full retention/attention on both videos so I hope this boosts your channel a little bit. Keep bringing up this unspoken value! Certainty a market to explore... Philosophy for business and explanations. Haven't seen that before

It depends on what the startup is, do you have any sales experience? Learning that skill in your own business is an expensive one. Maybe get some sort of sales job first? But tell me more about what you want to do.

@@misterpmacd I do not have any sales experience and I will look after any job I can get and maybe improve my skills, thanks for the suggestion 😁❤️ 🎯Startup Idea {one of few} : here in India there are many small business which are ghosted by customer so I'll try to increase their sales by online ads , setup website/app (on demand) for them and then charging them on monthly basis etc . Any tips on this? 🎯Another idea: I love to make design so maybe start an online print on demand tshirt and hoodie brand , I am very confused in this Btw thanks ❤️

Just watched your previous video, now watching this one. Congrats on your content, Peter. You deliver your ideas in a very well spoken and cohesive way. I like your view on these subjects a lot. As I can see, you're starting to get paid some attention hahah and I'm sure you will make good use of it. I did my share for making up for your good content, I subscribed, liked both videos and I'll probably stick around to see where you get from here. Good luck, brother!

How can we make our audience feel 'seen' through our content?
@misterpmacd

Great question. I think the answer lies ‘not’ in the content itself but everything else. How do you interact with your audience in the comments? Or on twitter or LinkedIN? Do you answer DM’s? It’s more of a matter of being a real person to the real people of your audience.
