0:00I don't know if you saw this, but Basos has this one page that um was just brilliant and he basically um paraphrases Richard Dawkins talking about how over time all organisms revert to their environment. Literally like the temperature of your body once you die eventually just normalizes with the environment. the acidity of what's going on like inside of your body normalizes and then eventually like you become one with your environment. And so it's the exact same concept. And so Basos was talking about that quote which was about biology but he said this is you know originally about biology but so much more so about um the way that we want to live which is that everything around you will try and force you to dilute yourself. it will force you to try and merge in fit in with your surroundings.
0:53And he said like this force is natural and it's inevitable and yet we have to fight it. And the fact that it's hard does not make it less worth it. And I thought that was like it was just I I mean I reposted cuz I thought it was so elegant. >> It's like a cosmic regression to the mean. >> Yeah, it's exactly that's exactly what [laughter] it is. Um, and yeah, so I think if we all know that we're going to we the regression of the mean is inevitable like and like again I think about these things that are I want to say I don't know if humiliating is the word but like humilityinducing um but like the idea that I'll die and then like worms will eat my body just like a very simple thing like that or if I die like I was like what if I just died by an animal killing me I like sometimes I think about that and I'm like I would just be its lunch like everything that I've done up to this point it's like my arm will feed its child And like my thigh will feed it and then like they'll leave some of it for the
1:46>> be good meal. It' be one one good meal. >> And it just like it just it just takes the the stakes of like I'm so important, right? I'm all these goals matter to just like I could be lunch and that kind of, you know, gives me one large exhale. Real quick, I'm going to show you the exact 10 stage road map from zero to 100 million plus that less than 1% of companies finish I've now done multiple times. And so I can say with a lot of confidence that these are the stages as headcount increases that you need to get through.
2:19And I broke each of these down by eight different functions of the business. What the constraint feels like what are the symptoms of it when you're going through it and then what steps we actually took to graduate. And we've done this across software, physical [clears throat] products, uh, service businesses, brick and mortar, all of this, and it works. And it's my gift to you. It's absolutely free.
