My First Million

The best business ideas come from noticing what's working and doing it better, faster, or for a different audience.

Back to Beliefs

Most people operate at 30% or less of their actual capacity

Evidence

People consistently surprise themselves when forced into high-demand situations (Manhattan hostess vs small-town hostess analogy)

Implication

Taking on 'too much' is often the fastest way to discover what you're actually capable of achieving

Counter Belief

People have realistic assessments of their limits and pushing too hard leads to burnout and poor quality

Example Application

Instead of carefully planning one new business, launch 3-5 validation experiments simultaneously and see which ones naturally get your attention and energy
