The Simplest Way to Build a Course With AI + Canva

Goal: Quickly turn what you know into a simple mini-course you can share or sell. ChatGPT creates the outline and scripts, Canva designs the slides.

Steps:

1) Find Your Course Topic (RTCE Prompt)
Prompt ChatGPT: Role: Market researcher. Task: Suggest 3 beginner-friendly course topics based on [your skills/interests] that solve [audience’s pain points]. Context: Keep topics practical and easy to teach in under 2 hours. Expected Output: A list of 3 topics with Who It Helps + Key Promise.
➡️ Next action: Pick one topic that feels easiest to start with.

2) Generate a Lesson Outline
Prompt ChatGPT: Role: Course designer. Task: Create a 5-lesson outline for [chosen topic]. Context: Audience = [audience]; Outcome = [what they want to achieve]. Expected Output: Lesson titles with 3–4 bullet points each.
➡️ Next action: Copy the outline into Notion or Google Docs.

3) Draft Simple Scripts
Ask ChatGPT to expand each lesson into short speaking notes (2–3 paragraphs). Keep it clear and conversational.
➡️ Next action: Save the notes so you can read from them while teaching.

4) Build Your Slides in Canva
Open Canva → Pick a clean template → For each lesson, create 1–2 slides with the title and 3 key bullets. Use Canva’s Magic Design if you want layout help.
➡️ Next action: Export your slides as a PDF.

5) Add Resources (Optional)
If a lesson mentions a checklist, template, or example, drop those into a simple doc. Label them clearly (e.g., “Lesson 2 – Checklist”).
➡️ Next action: Put all supporting files in one folder.

6) Package & Publish
Put your slides, scripts, and any resources into a single folder or Notion page. Share it directly with your audience or upload it to a hosting platform when you’re ready.
➡️ Next action: Publish and send the link to your community, email list, or socials.

Pro Tip (Optional Upgrade): Use LearnWorlds to host your course in a polished online school with built-in modules and quizzes.

Why this works:
ChatGPT handles the heavy lifting by outlining and scripting lessons, while Canva makes your slides look professional with almost no design effort. Instead of weeks of course creation, you’ve got a clean, repeatable system that beginners can execute in an afternoon.

Retired and Need Extra Cash?

If you're retired and finding it tough to make ends meet on Social Security or a pension, a reverse mortgage could help take some of the pressure off. With the "tenure" payment plan, you can receive reliable monthly payments for as long as you live in your home and keep up with basic responsibilities like property taxes and insurance. It’s a way to turn your home’s value into extra income without giving up the place you love, so you can enjoy a more comfortable and secure retirement. To qualify for a reverse mortgage, you must meet the following requirements:

  • You must be at least 62 years old.

  • You must own your home outright or have a low remaining mortgage balance that can be paid off at closing with reverse mortgage proceeds.

  • The home must be your primary residence (not a second home or rental property).

  • Eligible properties include single-family homes, FHA-approved condos, townhomes, and certain multi-unit properties (up to 4 units, as long as you live in one).

  • You must demonstrate the ability to pay property taxes, homeowners insurance, and maintenance costs.

  • You must complete a HUD-approved reverse mortgage counseling session to ensure you understand the loan terms and implications.

AI SPOTLIGHT
Watch: Palmer Luckey Flies a Real-Life “Star Wars” Landspeeder

Watch the Jetson ONE

Palmer Luckey, the founder of defense-tech powerhouse Anduril, just got his hands on Jetson’s single-seat eVTOL — and yes, it looks straight out of Star Wars. The Jetson One was delivered to his Carlsbad facility, where Luckey completed ground training in under an hour before taking it up for a low-altitude spin. Think of it as a Formula One car for the skies — compact, fast, and built for personal flight.

Key Takeaways:

  • Jetson has officially started global rollout of its personal eVTOL aircraft.

  • Luckey’s first flight highlights how intuitive the system is — training took less than 50 minutes.

  • Personal aviation is edging closer to mainstream reality, with Jetson positioning itself as a leader.

My Take: Watching someone like Palmer Luckey — who already owns a Blackhawk helicopter and a fleet of military-grade toys — pilot what looks like a Star Wars landspeeder is wild. But the real story is bigger: we’re entering an era where personal flight isn’t science fiction anymore. The convergence of AI, robotics, and aviation could completely redefine transportation in our lifetime.

AI Spending: Billions Burned, Millions Made

MIT research just dropped a sobering stat: despite $40B+ poured into AI, 95% of corporate projects generate zero return. Only 5% actually deliver millions in measurable value. Wins come from targeting specific problems—like Vapor IO cutting $700K in cloud costs through infrastructure optimization or Ranko Media boosting content margins 4x by augmenting staff instead of replacing them. Losers fall into the trap of “magic wand” thinking, chasing vague transformation goals without clear metrics.

Why it matters for you: That 95% failure rate is a goldmine for operators who understand focused implementation. Entrepreneurs can build consulting offers that solve narrow problems, launch training that teaches the “start small, prove value, expand” model, or create audit services exposing why investments flop. The real opportunity isn’t building more AI—it’s guiding companies into the profitable 5%.

Key Takeaways:

  • 95% failure rate: Most corporate AI projects lose money, creating space for specialists.

  • Augment > replace: Teams like Ranko Media win by enhancing humans, not cutting them.

  • Specific > broad: Vapor IO saved $700K by solving one clear infrastructure issue.

How 433 Investors Unlocked 400X Return Potential

Institutional investors back startups to unlock outsized returns. Regular investors have to wait. But not anymore. Thanks to regulatory updates, some companies are doing things differently.

Take Revolut. In 2016, 433 regular people invested an average of $2,730. Today? They got a 400X buyout offer from the company, as Revolut’s valuation increased 89,900% in the same timeframe.

Founded by a former Zillow exec, Pacaso’s co-ownership tech reshapes the $1.3T vacation home market. They’ve earned $110M+ in gross profit to date, including 41% YoY growth in 2024 alone. They even reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

The same institutional investors behind Uber, Venmo, and eBay backed Pacaso. And you can join them. But not for long. Pacaso’s investment opportunity ends September 18.
