Top 2 takeaways - 1) Have an anti metric for every metric 2) The example of person buying intros in order to have access to folks with ideal scene Also did a thread with takeaways for the episode :)
Top 13 takeaways for me: [0:06] Writing RUclips scripts is a completely different type of writing, and embracing a beginner's mentality is extremely important when learning this new skill and I've never written any RUclips script, so a great learning indeed. [1:54] It can take at least 7 iterations to truly learn a lesson, and it's important to review past lessons regularly to put your learning into motion. [4:29] Most people, including entrepreneurs, do a poor job of estimating how long a task will take. Entrepreneurial people often underestimate the time required, while others overestimate and choose not to pursue the task at all. [8:00] The worst place to be in any area of life is when you no longer know what needs to be improved. Being overwhelmed with potential improvements means you have tremendous upside ahead of you. [11:51] To improve your learning speed, focus on increasing the depth of each repetition by making one tactical improvement each time you practice a skill. [16:27] Culture is built through example, not by telling people what to do. When leaders model behaviors, the rest of the team naturally follows suit. [19:13] Doing the easy, obvious thing (like opening more call slots) can lead to significant improvements in business metrics. But most people think obvious cannot result in massive results. [20:04] Progress often feels slow until it suddenly accelerates all at once. The boring foundational work done months ago is what enables the rapid growth you see later. [22:05] As a business matures, decision-making time horizons become longer, requiring more patience and comfort with delayed gratification. [24:05] Every metric should have an anti-metric to prevent unintended consequences (e.g., optimizing for email subscribers but sacrificing open rates). [26:41] Each department in a company should have one clear metric that contributes to the overall company goal, and each person within the department should know their specific metric. [31:08] Boring work is the most important work for long-term success. Creative people must learn to fall in love with the boring work required to bring their ideas to life. [34:27] Mortgages are frontloaded with interest payments, meaning homeowners build very little equity in the first 7 years. Buying a house is primarily an emotional decision, not a financial one.
I feel this session was bouncing around the idea of how time is traded via volume or borrowed experience. You guys seem to be deep in the optimization pit and ramping up to 2nd degree factors. Don't forget about the localized minimums of these efforts as the spreads can have a multiplier effect. On the mortgages, you are spot on and some tools for combating this leverage of the banks have is Velocity Banking and Infinite Banking concepts. It always seems the goal is to find a way to leverage our inputs for multiplied outputs. :)
