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

    • Admin, basic social media, email follow-up

  • $100K Skills – Valuable, directional, hard to replace

    • Sales, copywriting, funnel design, team leadership

  • $1M Skills – Rare, high leverage, strategic

    • Vision setting, market positioning, capital allocation, hiring stars, M&A


Task: Audit Your Weekly Time

  1. Track your past 7 days in 15–30 min blocks.

  2. Label each activity as a $10K, $100K, or $1M skill.

  3. Circle all $10K activities—these are your delegation priorities.

  4. Highlight $100K activities—improve these with training.

  5. 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.
