Ben Sampson Headshot

Hey, I'm Ben!

I build, buy, and invest in businesses.

I've had 2 successful exits. Way more failures.

I write about building Freedom Companies to achieve what I call the three freedoms:

A life of financial freedom.
A life of time freedom.
A life of creative freedom.

I send one action packed email a week called a 1x1x1 where I write about businesses and people that I think are inspirational when it comes to creating freedom in their lives, or updates on the businesses we're building and buying.

This newsletter is the highlight of my week and I hope I can inspire and guide you to building your own freedom company.

Ben's 1x1x1 - May 10, 2024 🚀 - Mindset Hurtles 🧠

For those of you that are new here, every week I send what I call a 1x1x1.

One learning, reminder, or interesting item from my week.
One interesting find/tool from my week.
One image from my life.

Let's dive in 👇

Learning/reminder of the week

Shifting my mindset for better performance.

Sometimes I feel like a race car driver that's building his car when the race is already 20 laps in. I'm in the wrong mindset in the wrong phase of the race.

Different phases of business require different mindsets.

🧠 Build Phase - Requires a GSD (Get Shit Done) mindset

🧠 Operating Phase - Requires a project and people management mindset

🧠 Owner Phase - Requires an investor mindset

One of my bottlenecks is being in the wrong mindset in the wrong phase of the business.

Note to self: Take more 10,000 foot views to ensure you're in the write mindset for the business you're focused on.

Interesting find/tool of the week

I love a good ad. I try to write down or screen shot all the ads that get my attention. Then, I go to the Meta ad library and see any and all ads the company is running. This has been a gold mine!

Image from my life

We celebrated our baby shower this past weekend. Blessed with amazing family.

See you all next week!
