The Multiplier

The clock runs. The hour passes. The time is spent.


Most of the world gets paid for the passing of that time. It's a comfortable contract. An agreement of safety. Trade one hour of life for an agreed-upon unit of currency.


The problem with this contract is that it caps your potential. It rewards presence, not performance. It celebrates effort, not outcome.


But the economy of impact is different.


No one pays the painter for the hours she spent cleaning the brushes. They pay her for the masterpiece. No one pays the entrepreneur for the hours he spent staring at the ceiling. They pay him for the breakthrough idea.


They pay for the result.


The moment you accept this truth, your relationship with the clock fundamentally changes. You stop asking, "How long will this take?"


You start asking the only question that matters:

What can I do with this time that will yield the single greatest result this week?


This is the question of leverage. It's the search for the action that isn't just productive, but reproductive. 


The task that doesn't just fill an hour, but multiplies the value of every hour that follows.


Stop measuring in minutes. Start measuring in impact.


What is the multiplier you're ignoring?


Your Coach,

50 Cent, Government Cheese, and the Science of the Qualified Champion

The "Gangster" Paradox: Why Autonomy is the Ultimate Un-Goal The word "gangster" carries a lot of baggage. For most, it conjures images of the street, the hustle, or the headlines. But in his recent Esquire sit-down, 50 Cent stripped away the theater and gave us a definition that belongs on every entrepreneur’s whiteboard: "To me, gangster means to live the way you like without answering to anyone." Read that again. He’s not talking about crime; he’s talking about agency . He’s talking about the " Un-Goal ." The "Should" Monster vs. The Un-Goal In my work with the WRAP Sheet and Momentum & Mastery , we talk constantly about the " Should Monsters ." These are the invisible anchors—the projects you took on because a competitor did, the clients you tolerate because you’re afraid of the gap in your calendar, and the "hustle" habits that steal your emotional capital. Most people spend their entire careers building ...

The Gravity of a Small Dream

Most people think they have a motivation problem. They don’t. They have a vision problem. In my book Momentum & Mastery , I talk about the Drift to Drive framework. The first stage—and the one where most people get stuck—is the Dream . But here’s the catch: Most 'dreams' aren't dreams at all. They are just logical extensions of where you already are. They are safe. They are manageable. And because they are safe, they have zero gravitational pull. A small vision is a recipe for drift. When your goal is just '10% more than last year,' your brain doesn't need to innovate. It doesn't need to find leverage. It just needs to grind harder. That’s how you end up exhausted and stagnant. To move into Drive , you need a vision that pulls you forward, a compelling future. You need to expand the walls of what you think is possible. How to Expand Your Vision: The 10X Filter : Ask yourself, "What would I have to change if I had to grow by 1000% instead of 10%?...
