You Have to be In It to Win It — by Dan Lynn

You can't really understand something transformative by reading about it from a distance. You have to get your hands dirty — be in it.

AI is the obvious example right now. If you want to capitalize on it, you can't just follow the headlines. You have to actually use it, every day, until it stops being abstract.

That's what I do. I'm hands-on with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, Grok, and Lovable. I spend four to eight hours a day deep in it — vibe coding, researching it, listening to AI podcasts, reading about new breakthroughs, investing, and exchanging ideas with other like-minded people.

The best way to learn about it is to go deep. You have to be in it to win it.
