sounds like you need my How To Get An Assistant course which I'm actually having a sale on right now. it'll teach you how to get an assistant and also sign you up to my mastermind and zoom bootcamp full of assistant-less CEOs. together we do PISBT, Passive Income Sound Bath Therapy which is my patented technique which guarantees assistants and passive income instantly after doing one session. also i've hired a Tony Robbins lookalike who will yell at us for $400 an hour. please come i really need this

Alex will be a complete doofus if he doesn’t sign up for this. A wolf is not a doofus. I think I might also need Passive Income Sound Bath Therapy. Please contact my virtual assistant (virtual as in doesn’t exist).

The links don't work (note to my assistant, reach out to Alex's assistant, yes that overstuffed granola person sitting sobbing in the corner, and find out why they haven't put the links in yet) note to self (reduce my assistants salary and buy granola bars to get kick back from Nature's Way)

What if we want a different brand of granola bars?

The position of being ‘my assistant’ seems to have opened up. Your comment suggests you may be willing to work for granola bars of another brand? I would absolutely consider this salary adjustment. Please apply with full CV, I look forward to hearing from you.

There's no way I'm doing this, Alex.

But since not doing it is publically admitting you are right about something, I'm doing it. I'm going to dedicate the rest of my life to it. I am now the No-Man. "Pay your taxes by January 31st." NO. "If you don't remove yourself from these premises we will call security." NO. "Don't lick that flagpole when it's minus 20C outside." NO. STOP ME.

And then I'll do a course, which I'll have to do because I'll be bankrupt and tazered and I'll need tongue surgery.

As always, thanks for a life-changing post, Alex. Not.

You don't need this but I'm sharing it anyway of course, because NO. (And because I'm a language nerd.) Here's the written Sanskrit for wolf:

अरण्यश्वन् - basically means 'forest dog'. So woof woof. Or maybe Aaoooof?

It could also be these other two words.

वृक and ईहावृक

Ok, hope you enjoy.

Aaoooof! 🐺

“Someone will pass out Nature’s Valley granola bars.”= the moment I knew this was not satire and was in fact all too real.

Does this course include capsule wardrobe styling support because if I'm transforming I will def need that as well. And, can I bring my own water because it sounds like this may take awhile (plus please ask the assistant to buy some of the gluten-free granola bars).

Dobrenko, you're a genius! Thanks so much for pointing this out.

The very hardest thing about writing is NOT writing.

Maybe I am a real writer after all.

Awoooooooo

Truer words have never been said. From now on, I'll say no to everything (except for your Nature Valley's granola bars).
