the 3 point exploding-brain technique
B is for BOLD, BILL, and "BOOM it goes your heart"
That was the original name of this project. I was thrilled, hopeful, and proud. Those were the good old days.
But the more I shared “The 3-point exploding-brain technique” with others, the more I realized that "The Five-Point-Palm Exploding-Heart Technique” is not a universally recognized reference, even for people who've watched Kill Bill.
So first, a little housekeeping (no spoilers ahead)
Bill
Once you've taken five steps...your heart explodes inside your body...and you fall to the floor, dead.
Beatrix Kiddo

Bill
No.
He teaches no one the Five-Point-Palm Exploding-Heart Technique.
Come on, people.
“The 3-point brain exploding technique” is too good of a name.
I'm in denial.
So off I go to pester people and stress-test the concept.
After relentless pitching at parties, messages to friends and relatives, and a few Reddit rabbit holes. I have my result:
People suck. I need to find a new name.
Not everything is lost, though. I had a second option.
BEHOLD!

No.
But people get the concept better.
Fear not. I will explain it in detail soon.

IMPORTANT: The name is not discarded; I urge you not to copy it. Things will get bloody if you do.

Now, along with keep building this storytelling generator for solopreneurs. I'm on a mission to evangelize for the "Five-Point-Palm Exploding-Heart Technique.”
