THE 20-MINUTE CONVERSATION THAT REVEALED MY ‘HUMAN 3.0’ WITH DAN KOE
We spend an agonizing amount of time bargaining with our own potential.
You know the internal dialogue. It’s the negotiation where you debate if you should do the work, when the timing is perfect, and how much effort is strictly necessary to get by. We rationalize the delay. We settle for a "good enough" standard because the gap between our current reality and our vision feels too wide to bridge.
For the last few years, I found myself stuck in that negotiation.
I had the vision. I know the aesthetic I wanted for my life and business. But I was operating on friction, running mental loops, and waiting for a breakthrough while repeating the same daily patterns. I was living an "off-the-rack" week while dreaming of a premium future.
Then, this past summer, I stopped the noise. I stopped bargaining. I sat down for a 20-minute conversation that provided more clarity than months of strategy planning.
I didn't speak to a business coach or a therapist. I spoke to AI, but I gave it a specific set of blueprints: Dan Koe’s "Human 3.0" model.
The results were revealing. It was the single most important conversation I’ve had in months because it stripped away the excuses and forced me to look at the architecture of my own operating system.
Here is how I unlocked the advantage I’d been looking for, and how you can do the same.
The Blueprint: Understanding Human 3.0
To build anything of value—a body, a brand, or a life—you need a blueprint.
The "Human 3.0" concept, developed by philosopher and creator Dan Koe, is that blueprint for evolution.
Human 1.0 is Survival. Reactive. Driven by base impulses.
Human 2.0 is Social. The conformist. Following the script, seeking validation, and living a life designed by others. This is where high-potential people go to die.
Human 3.0 is The Creator. Autonomous. Purpose-driven. You become the architect of your reality.
The goal is to stop operating as a 2.0 human in an economy that rewards 3.0 behavior.

The Audit: Why AI Changes the Game
I understood the model intellectually. But intellectual understanding is a cheap commodity; execution is the luxury asset.
When we self-audit, our ego gets involved. We dodge the hard questions. We soften the blow. We tell ourselves we’re "busy" when we’re actually just distracted.
AI doesn't care about your feelings. It cares about the data.
By feeding the Human 3.0 framework into Gemini and asking it to use that model as a lens to interrogate me, I created a mirror that wouldn't lie. I invited it to audit my standards.
The 20-Minute Revelation
I sat down. No distractions. Just the prompt and the truth.
I didn't ask for generic advice. I asked it to identify exactly where my actions were contradicting my ambition.
The conversation was uncomfortable. It highlighted exactly where I was "bargaining"—where I was seeking external validation (Human 2.0) instead of executing on my internal vision (Human 3.0). It pinpointed the precise habits that were diluting my focus.
The revelation wasn't new information. The revelation was that I could no longer pretend I didn't know.
Once the data is laid out that clearly, the bargaining stops. You can’t negotiate with the truth when it’s staring you in the face.
The Protocol
I high encourage you to stop negotiating with yourself and start designing your outcome, here is the protocol.
Step 1: The Source Material Open the Dan Koe link above.
Step 2: Prime the AI Open Gemini. You are going to give it the "Human 3.0" parameters so it knows the rules of the game. Now copy and paste this prompt from the Website Article Provided Above.
Step 3: The Work Set a timer for 20 minutes. Answer the questions with total transparency. If you lie to the input, you break the output.
Stop Bargaining
There is an advantage you have been looking for to creating a framework for your mind to be successful. When you are starting with TailorFit, it can be tough to break your limiting mindset due to past experiences. It can be the fear of failure or the fear of success. However, as I always say to my kids,
“On the other side of Fear, is everything you ever wanted.”
Unlock your potential. Run the model. Tailor your life to the standard you know you're capable of.
