Judgment Is the Real Bottleneck 🧠
Most leaders don’t have a strategy problem or an AI problem—they have a judgment problem. In a world obsessed with tools and optionality, capability is often mistaken for clarity. Progress now belongs to those who can reduce complexity, choose well, and commit.
Systems Versus Effort ⚙️
Effort feels productive, but it degrades under pressure. Systems are what turn judgment into something repeatable—reducing cognitive load, encoding principles, and making good decisions easier by default. When ambition relies on effort instead of design, progress becomes fragile; when it relies on systems, clarity compounds.
