Supposedly some small team in China with a tiny budget made an AI that’s WAY better than ChatGPT?!

What if you only saw your loved ones 15 more times in this life?

Here’s a perspective from Sahil Bloom’s new book, The 5 Types of Wealth, that hit me hard:

1. Estimate how many years your loved one has left.

2. Multiply that by how many times you see them per year.

3. That’s the number of visits you have left with them.

For example, if your parent is 65 and you see them once a year, and they live to 80… you’ve only got 15 more visits.

That’s it. Just 15.

Here’s the thing, though: you’re not locked into this math. You can change it starting today.

Here’s some ways to turn the tables:

• Call them every Sunday.

• Plan a weekend together every three months.

• Start a tradition, like a family dinner, game night, or book club.

• Share something consistent—like sending a funny meme or quick text daily.

• Move closer (if you can).

A few years ago, my wife and kids up and moved from Utah (my home state) to Idaho (her home state).

We love living here, but it’s meant that we see my family a LOT less. So when I read this concept from Sahil Bloom, it was like a sucker punch to the gut thinking about my parents, my brothers, their families…

While we may not be moving back, 3 things hit me:

1. How can we prioritize visiting as often as we reasonably can?

2. How can we be 1000% present when we are visiting?

3. How can I talk on the phone more often with my loved ones (and let my kids do the same)?

But this isn’t just about family. The same principle applies to anything you care about:

• Your best friend you see twice a year? If you both live 30 more years, that’s only 60 more hangouts.

• The hobby you keep putting off—writing, painting, hiking, piano, skiing? How many more times will you realistically do it?

• Even your favorite vacation spot—if you only visit every 5 years, how many more trips will you take in your lifetime?

The math isn’t meant to scare you—it’s meant to wake you up. If the numbers feel too low, change something. Show up more. Schedule it. Prioritize it.

It’s not about cramming in everything—it’s about making the things (and people) you love a bigger part of your life.

So, who—or what—are you going to “hard reset” your time with?
