    Managing inventory for any type of business

    SCALING 
    I used to think “man, it’s nice we have a service business so we don’t have to worry about inventory, vendors, or any of that BS that retail stores deal with!” And then mowers would break… We kept backups in storage… “Wait, which ones worked and which ones had problems. What was wrong with...

    The only way to actually guarantee to lose weight

    HOT! HEALTH 
    Every diet can be cheated. Calorie restriction: you need to track calories accurately (you lie about everything). You can also be lazier and burn less calories and you can’t really track how much you burn. Keto/Carnivore/Vegan: limiting the type of food means nothing since you can just eat...

    You don’t need more friends right now

    MINDSET 
    Your business is probably not struggling because you don’t ‘network’ enough. Or because you haven’t gotten into a mastermind that’ll solve all your problems. Or because you don’t have the right connections. Your business is a math problem. Most likely, you just don’t have enough customers...

    How I make to-do lists

    IDEA 
    The more things change, the more they stay the same. The to-do list is how shit gets done. It doesn't matter if you are starting your first business at 17 or make 30 million a year, you still need to wake up and get shit done. My life makes NO progress unless I'm making lists and crossing it...

    Pick what you want to grow this month

    MINDSET 
    Whatever you give attention to grows. We are limited people and can only be getting so much done. Whatever we let sit idle, will deteriorate. It is a law of the universe. It is entropy. Unless we can be clear on exactly what we’re targeting, it will likely only be a half assed effort. This...

    Conscientiousness and fixing your business personality

    GOLD! HOT! MINDSET 
    Gonna save some time and confront the likely replies that are coming right here in the beginning 1. “Personality is more complicated than this”, chill out, this is about heuristics 2. No I’m not a psychiatrist, but I run a business and talk to business owners and employ teams of people and...

    The only place a prophet is without honor

    MINDSET 
    Mark 6:4 Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town, among his relatives and in his own home.” There’s a feeling inside of you that you were meant for more. That you have some talent or ability in you. That you could be great. But nobody around you sees it. They...

    The year of your iron word

    MINDSET 
    This year has been quite a change. I’m 27 now. A wrinkled old man, nearly collecting social security. It felt like yesterday when I had a mattress on the floor of a 400 square foot place. I was always the type of guy in school with wrinkled, torn up homework. Nothing was ever organized. “Who...

    My personal GPT trained daily planning assistant

    MINDSET 
    “What should I do right now” “What time is it?” “11:39pm” “Go to bed you should’ve been in bed at 9:30. Set your alarm for 7 and move your morning routine to after you do the work schedule for your employees since it must get done before 8” This is my own personal trained chat gpt from last...

    One of the biggest mistakes of big thinkers

    GOLD! HOT! MINDSET 
    I remember sometime when I was a younger kid, around 10. I was in the kitchen with the rest of the family. I was telling my family again, for probably the hundredth time, how I was going to be a big shot and own a business. And my dad said: "yeah....cool...maybe you should start by...

    This one thing is JUST as important as solving a need

    MARKETING 
    The best business is a productocracy. You solve a problem. It's damn good. People beat down your door to come buy it. They tell their friends without prompting. The local news does a story on you. It goes viral. Everyone wants it. 0 advertising, a billion in sales. You've bottled up the...

    A word about perseverance from Alex Hormozi

    MINDSET 
    Our business is doing fine, we have a good system, things are pretty optimized and we’ve removed a lot of bottlenecks, so now the only thing to do to crank the floodgates wide open is….more leads at an affordable price. I picked up 100M Leads by Alex Hormozi and I think it’s a LETHAL book for...

    The war against your self esteem

    NOTABLE! HOT! MINDSET 
    There is one major trait I see in all of my successful friends and partners. They aren’t that much smarter. They aren’t particularly talented. But there’s one thing they all have. Ridiculous self esteem. It’s not even that they brag. It’s deeper than that. It runs so deep. It’s the...

    Your company is a manufacturing company

    SCALING 
    After reading “The Goal”, a great book about manufacturing, I realized that many of the systems and “machines” in my own company could use the same application of principles to grow and operate at optimum total efficiency. Here’s the thing, our company mows lawns. What does that have to do with...

    The missing link of goals

    MINDSET 
    For a long time I’ve had a strategy for categorizing parts of my life and constantly analyzing each area. It’s always been broken up into reflecting on where I am now, where I want to be, and setting goals on how to get there. But although I’ve made good progress, I didn’t get the results I...

    Small changes, big results (value discussion)

    SCALING 
    (this was a reply to this post IDEA - MINDSET - RELATIVE value, not value ) In almost all things, you buy it before you experience or use it, so you are not even buying because of value or relative value until you go back to buy it twice, you are buying purely because of perceived value at...
