"Your lack of ability to make decisions will kill you." In this episode, which was originally delivered to an audience at an Acquisition.com Scaling Workshop, Alex (@AlexHormozi) shares a lesson that he's had to learn repeatedly - focus. A lack of ability to focus is the Kryptonite to many entrepreneurs, and chasing shiny objects will keep your business smaller than almost anything else. Paradoxically, leaning into new opportunities is what got many first time entrepreneurs their first success, but focus is what will take you to $10M, $100M, and beyond.

Welcome to The Game w/Alex Hormozi, hosted by entrepreneur, founder, investor, author, public speaker, and content creator Alex Hormozi. On this podcast you’ll hear how to get more customers, make more profit per customer, how to keep them longer, and the many failures and lessons Alex has learned on his path from $100M to $1B in net worth.

"If you want to build an asset that makes you generationally wealthy, this is for you." In this episode, Alex (@AlexHormozi) shares that for most businesses that he's started and worked with, there's a core value driver that must be understood in order to truly scale. And if the entrepreneur does NOT work on this and instead gets distracted on other problems, they won't grow as quickly.

"Understanding the difference between the two kinds of work has been the biggest unlock in my life." In this episode, Alex (@AlexHormozi) defines "Maker" vs "Manager" work, why they matter for leverage, how teams can build more awareness and intentionality around them, and ultimately how putting this system into practice can make you a lot more money.

Special shoutout to Paul Graham who wrote a piece on this concept 14 years ago.
