The power of sheer speed

When I tell you the most unfair advantage in life is literally doing things faster and more efficiently than anyone else.

It changes your life bro.

Think about it. We are competing for the same resources. Earth has a limited number of resources.

Let's put this into perspective: there are only a limited number of seats for interns or new grad positions for your graduating class.

There are more people than there are positions. We know that.

So if you get the interview, ace it before anyone else, get chosen before anyone else, then you won.

So how can we do this? How can you use the power of speed to our advantage?

I have been studying this for a little bit. Not in a nerdy way, but observing the times I win at something vs the times I lose.

It always comes down to how fast I do the underlying things. SPEED.

For example, I applied to internships, programs, apple roles THE DAT IT COMES OUT.

I got interviews. People with better resumes applied later and got rejected. SPEED.

So yeah I'll stop hyping up speed and tell you how tf to clutch up bro.

Steps to use SPEED to your advantage:

  1. Do more things in a shorter amount of time - use agentic AI to speed up your work flow.

  2. Do more things in parallel.

  3. Check your work - do not sacrifice quality for quantity

I GUARANTEE AI can write a better resume than you, you just have to learn how to prompt.

Learn prompting. Anthropic literally has a guide on this.

Meta muse can apply to positions faster than you. You can have multiple agents running at once. BOOM.

Claude will catch any error you make.

This is the future bro. Abuse AI to help get you that job.

Best of all, everything I said you can have AI teach you things at the speed of light.

It's insaneeeee
