Obsession beats discipline - go all-in on your craft until you either die or get reborn.

Speedrun Everything Framework

Reusability

An approach to execution that treats every task and project as something to complete as quickly as possible while maintaining quality. Compress timelines ruthlessly rather than spreading work across comfortable periods.

How It Works

Extended timelines create drag and allow perfectionism to delay shipping. Compressing timelines forces focus on what actually matters. The pressure of speed eliminates unnecessary features, overthinking, and scope creep. What others spread across years can be compressed into months through obsessive daily effort.

Components

1

Set aggressive deadlines that feel slightly uncomfortable

2

Identify the simplest version of innovation that can ship

3

Remove everything that is not essential to the core experience

4

Work at unsustainable intensity for defined sprints

5

Ship, iterate, and advance rather than perfecting before release

When to Use

When execution speed is a competitive advantage. When you have been slow to ship and need to increase velocity. When analysis paralysis is a bigger risk than shipping imperfection.

When Not to Use

When building things that genuinely require time to compound like relationships or reputation. When speed would compromise safety or core quality. When burnout is already a risk.

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

Speedrunning indefinitely without rest leading to burnoutSacrificing core quality for speedShipping broken things that damage trustConfusing activity with progress

Example

A founder compresses their typical 6-month product timeline into 2 months. They cut every feature that is not essential to the core value proposition. They work intensely, ship the simplest version, learn from real users, and iterate. By month 4 they have shipped more than they would have in 8 months at normal pace.
