Framework: Skill Stack ROI Thinking
📌 “Get so good they can’t ignore you.” – Steve Martin
Mini Course: Skills That Scale with You
To master business, you need leverage—skills that multiply output with less input. Think in skill tiers:
$10K Skills – Easy to outsource, low leverage
$100K Skills – Valuable, directional, hard to replace
$1M Skills – Rare, high leverage, strategic
Vision setting, market positioning, capital allocation, hiring stars, M&A
Task: Audit Your Weekly Time
Track your past 7 days in 15–30 min blocks.
Label each activity as a $10K, $100K, or $1M skill.
Circle all $10K activities—these are your delegation priorities.
Highlight $100K activities—improve these with training.
Protect time for $1M activities—make space even if only 30 mins/day.
Tactic: Operate 80/15/5
80% of your day = $100K execution
15% = delegate + oversee $10K work
5% = strategic $1M thinking (weekly review, new market bets, etc.)
Mastery = building leverage through compound skills and ruthless prioritisation.
