Apply · The year with me · $100,000

Eight sections. About ninety minutes.

It is long on purpose. At this price the application is the first hour of the year, and someone who will not spend ninety minutes on it will not protect fifty-two.

The process, and the terms.

This application, then one conversation of sixty minutes, then my decision. You hear either way inside fourteen days, with a reason.

$100,000, paid in full, before month one. No plan, no deposit structure, no instalments. Anything you have already bought from me comes off it.

One protected hour a week for fifty-two weeks, the same day and the same time, plus two full days in Tallinn or online.

It ends at month twelve. No second year, no continuation, no alumni arrangement.

I say no more often than I say yes, and my reasons are published. Read them before you spend ninety minutes on this.

This page does not save what you type. Write the long answers somewhere else first — a document, a note, paper — and paste them in when you are finished. On a phone, do the writing on the phone’s notes and come back.

You

Name

A · The facts

01Name, age, where you live, where you work, who you live with.

02What do you actually do all day? Walk me through yesterday, hour by hour.

03How many people depend on your decisions for their income?

04Who depends on you for something that is not money?

05What is the day and time you would protect for the next fifty-two weeks?

Give me one, not three.

B · The body

06Sleep: what time down, what time up, how many wakes, and for how long has that been true?

07Everything you take, with doses and times.

Prescribed, over the counter, supplements, caffeine, nicotine, alcohol. Leave nothing off.

08Diagnoses, current and past. Surgeries. Injuries you are still working around.

09When was your last full blood panel, and do you have it?

10What does a doctor currently tell you that you are not doing?

C · The pattern

11What takes you down? Describe the last time, from the first minute.

12How often, and what does it cost: money, hours, people?

13What have you already tried? List it, with what each cost and how long it held.

14Why did each of those not hold?

Your honest answer, not the polite one.

D · The rooms

15Where do you perform, and for whom?

16Who has never seen you tired?

17What have you not told the person closest to you, and for how long?

18What would you lose if you stopped performing?

Name the money, the position, the people.

E · The story

19Ten sentences about who you are.

20Which of them did you decide before you were fifteen?

21What are you still defending that stopped being true years ago?

22What would you have to give up being right about?

F · The end

23Describe the person who walks out of month twelve.

Not how they feel. What they do on a Tuesday.

24What will still be here that you wish were not?

25Who will you become responsible for?

26If nothing changes, describe your life in five years.

Exact.

G · The terms

27Can you pay $100,000 in full before month one, without borrowing it and without it changing how you live? Yes or no.

28Who else has to agree to this, and have you asked them?

29Can you be in Tallinn for two full days, roughly month six and month twelve?

30What in the next twelve months could take the hour away: a birth, a sale, a court case, a build?

31Which of the six have you already done, here or anywhere else? With whom, and when.

32Who sent you here, and what did they say? Write none if nobody did.

H · One page

33Write one page. No question, no structure, no guidance.

Whatever you would say to me if we were sitting down and you had one page. This decides more applications than everything above it.

Before you send

Nothing here is shown to anyone. If I say no, everything you wrote is deleted within thirty days.
