I send one action packed email a week called a 1x1x1 covering crazy cool businesses I spot, updates on what we're building and buying, and lessons from the journey of an entrepreneur.

For those of you that are new here, every week I send what I call a 1x1x1.
One thought from my week.
One interesting find/tool from my week.
One image from my life.
Let's dive in 👇
There are a lot of great traits to look for in the people you surround yourself with.
Integrity? Sure. Intelligence? Cool.
But the stand out for me recently is a high bias for action.
What does that mean?
It means doers. People who move fast, don’t drag their feet, and actually get sh*t done.
The opposite? Oh, you know these people.
They get assigned a task, and it goes straight into “the backlog.”
A week later, they “circle back” to “think about it.”
Another week passes, and now they’re “prioritizing it.”
Then, finally, after two more check-ins and a Slack thread so long it could be an audiobook, they complete a simple task that should’ve taken 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, a high-bias-for-action person? They get an idea, they execute, and they learn from the results.
Need to test a new sales script? Boom, they’re on the phone in 10 minutes.
Want to launch a new landing page? It’s live by the end of the day.
Thinking about starting a podcast? The first episode is already uploaded before they even tell anyone they’re doing it.
Speed is a Superpower.
Action creates momentum. Momentum creates opportunities. And the people who move fast usually end up way ahead of the ones still “thinking about it.”
So if you want to build a killer team, or just be the kind of person who actually gets things done, develop a high bias for action.
Nothing worthy of reporting!
Red Bull Hardline and the boys!
