Date: October 11, 2025

Overview

In this episode, Tyson Mutrux dives into the lesser-known yet highly effective habits that drive maximum productivity for law firm owners and entrepreneurs. Tyson explores practical ways to integrate AI agents with WordPress, streamline meetings for better leadership presence, optimize sleep (“sleep maxing”) for sharper performance, harness the power of the Comet browser for automation, and leverage prompt engineering to increase online authority. The show is fast-paced, actionable, and loaded with real-world advice and tech tips, presented with Tyson’s candid, conversational tone.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Making WordPress AI-Agent Friendly (01:00)

• Main Insight: The evolution to the “Agentic Web” means websites need to be friendly not just to humans, but to AI agents conducting web tasks on people’s behalf.

• New Tool Focus:
  Tyson highlights Hostinger’s rollout of a one-click option to make WordPress sites agent-friendly with “Web2Agent.”

• Why It Matters:
  AI agents are increasingly important for tasks like searching for a lawyer or comparing products. If your law firm’s website isn’t agent-ready, you could be left behind the next big tech shift. Tyson compares this to when mobile-first became the web standard.

  “This reminds me of whenever mobile first started... This is very, very similar to that...”
  — Tyson Mutrux (03:54)

Takeaways

• Prepare your site now to serve future client needs.
• Being agentic-web ready is a strategic advantage for lawyers.

2. Leading Meetings Like a Pro (09:45)

• Source: Forbes article on meeting leadership.

• Three Keys:

  • Preparedness: Review agendas, arrive early, and gather relevant data.

    “Successful leaders don’t wing it. They come prepared.”
    — Tyson Mutrux (10:30)

  • Engagement: Stay attentive throughout, not just when it’s your turn.
  • Virtual Presence: Camera on, no multitasking, leverage chat effectively.

• Personal Note:
  Tyson challenges the advice of always staying in meetings after your part is done, referencing Elon Musk’s approach:

  “If your part is truly done and you have nothing to add... I don’t believe you should just force yourself to be engaged.”
  — Tyson Mutrux (12:13)

Practical Tips

• Prepare questions and objectives ahead of time.
• Use chat features for additional engagement.
• Maintain clear audio and video for meetings.

3. “Sleep Maxing” – Optimizing Your Rest (16:10)

• Definition: Sleep maxing is about intentionally optimizing every element of your sleep to boost your daily performance.

• Tyson’s Personal Routine:

  • Pitch black rooms: blackout curtains, no electronics light.
  • Upgraded to a temperature-controlled bed.
  • Dim, motion-triggered light under the bed to avoid bumps at night.

• Tools & Tech:
  Sleep trackers (Oura ring, Sleep Number bed, Whoop), blue-light blocking glasses, and red-light therapy.

• Supplements: Magnesium, L-theanine, microdose melatonin (with cautions).

• Sound & Sensory: White noise, pink noise, binaural beats, essential oils.

• “Bed Stacking”: Layering multiple sleep routines—sauna, cold plunge, meditation—to deepen quality.

  “I went through and I took some black electrical tape and taped up every single light in my room... there is zero light in the room.”
  — Tyson Mutrux (17:25)

Benefits & Risks

• Better sleep quality = sharper performance, weight management, and general health.
• Risks of poor sleep are widely known—grogginess, weight gain, increased health issues.

4. Using Comet Browser for Automation (22:30)

• Overview:
  Comet is Perplexity’s browser, increasingly used for AI-powered browsing and workflow automation.

• Key Features:

  • Allows for browsing and interacting with the Internet in real time, unlike standard AI bots.
  • Custom Shortcuts: Assign reusable prompts (like text expanders).
  • Daily Automations: For instance, set up to review tasks, check subscriptions, update Google Sheets, and manage web research.
  • Tab Management: Commands to organize or group browser tabs efficiently.
  • In-Browser Editing: Have Comet review or edit your writing directly in the browser.

  “Perplexity’s Comet browser can do what other AI tools can’t—it can browse the web like we do.”
  — Tyson Mutrux (23:44)

• Tyson’s Experience:
  He tried to make Comet his default browser but found limitations for streaming. Still, he highly recommends it for most workflows.

Practical Automations

• Create shortcuts for repeated tasks.
• Automate report generation, research, and even emailing directly in-browser.

5. Authority-Boosting Prompts for Online Presence (28:05)

• Source: Forbes (workarounds for paywall included)

• 7 Authority Prompts:
  (Tyson reads through selected prompts that help you create a content calendar, media bio, podcast pitch, speaker one-sheet, case studies, guesting strategy, and a day-by-day execution scorecard.)

  • Example:

    “Act as my content strategist based on my expertise in [field]...”
    — Forbes Prompt (28:15)

• Tyson’s Application:
  Used these prompts in Comet to draft, tweak, and send emails (like for song licensing at his conference), making the process seamless.

  “I use this and it created actually, I was in Comet, an email... and I just hit send... It was incredible.”
  — Tyson Mutrux (30:20)

Fast Action Tips

• Use prompt engineering to generate content, bios, pitches, and collaboration outreach.
• Schedule and track daily authority-building actions with scorecards.
