The Hyper Growth Blueprint.

Welcome back folks đ«Ą
This weekâs Hyper Growth Blueprint covers:
âWhy you should STOP doing so much
âĄïž The 3-Step Framework to liberating yourself
Letâs go⊠đ
Stop doing so much.
I mean it.
We cling to the idea that more effort = more results.
In reality, it often clogs your mind and splits your focus.
I learned the hard way that doing more can sometimes bury you.
(And Iâm still learningâŠ)
Everything clutters your mind.
Everything divides your attention.
Everything slows you down.
The next few paragraphs are my attempt at distilling this core principle that I have personally struggled with a lot over the last 5 years of running my business.
My aim is to solidify the lesson for myself; which will hopefully be useful to you as well.
Letâs get into it⊠đ
I have a programme called the Hyper Growth Accelerator where I work 1-1 w/ businesses.
Every week people ask me questions about new ideasâŠ
âShould I try a new webinar platform?â
âShould I post 17 times a day on social media?â
âShould I host a big, expensive conference?â
The answer is usually no.
Not because those ideas are bad.
But because they donât address the single most pressing issue thatâs holding them back.
Itâs like clearing a motorway accidentâŠ
Traffic canât flow until you remove the wreckage.
No amount of fancy signposts will help if the pileup remains.
Once itâs gone, suddenly the entire motorway opens up.
Thatâs what happens when you focus on your primary constraint.
You clear the path, and momentum returns.
Ruthless focus is my teams mantra.
If an activity doesnât fix the current constraint, we donât touch it.
Or we push it to someone else if it canât be tossed entirely.
Itâs an approach thatâs saved me from turning into a headless chicken on more occasions than Iâd like to admit.
Let me give you a recent exampleâŠđ
Last quarter, our biggest constraint was lead volume.
We knew everything else - delivery, pricing, sales processes - was running smoothlyâŠ
âŠbut we lacked new, high-quality leads.
So we cut down on non-urgent tasks like building out fancy dashboards or revamping old workflows.
Sure, those tasks might be important someday.
But NOT when your main issue is leads.
Once we sorted that out, we could allocate proper time to the rest.
How do you actually do this in practice?
This process boils down to three actions: Eliminate, Delegate, or Simplify.
Eliminate
Stop throwing resources at tasks that donât push the needle.
If it wonât solve your biggest constraint, bin it.
Youâll be shocked at how many items on your to-do list vanish when you ask:
âDoes this help with our main challenge, or is it just busywork?â
Be brutal.
You can always revisit your side tasks later if they become relevant.
Delegate
Maybe the task matters, but it doesnât need to be YOU doing it.
This is one of the toughest pills for entrepreneurs to swallow.
Because we tend to think weâre the best at everything.
Truth is, if it isnât about your current constraint, let someone else handle it.
Pass it to a colleague.
Outsource it.
Automate it with a tool.
You free yourself to focus on what truly matters.
Simplify
Sometimes the task still needs doing and has to be done by youâŠ
âŠBUT you can trim the fat.
Donât blow up a simple activity into a complicated circus.
Stripping away complexity keeps you and your team moving swiftly.
If it solves the constraint in a straightforward way, then brilliant.
Do it and move on.
The difference between successful businesses and limp, poor businesses is the leaderâs ability to allocate resources.
Your budget, your time, and your brainpower are finite.
If you & your staff are scurrying off in every direction, you wonât allocate enough resource to tackle the immediate constraint.
This leads to a vicious cycle of partial fixes.
Never fully getting to the root cause.
By directing your resources toward the highest-impact area first, you ensure your team understands what truly matters and why itâs worth the effort.
This clarity not only boosts performance but also ignites a shared sense of purpose.
Nobody likes working on trivial nonsense that doesnât move the dial.
Back when I tried to juggle everything, I was permanently exhausted.
One project would take twice as long, because I was constantly context-switching to handle something else.
My results were passable but never stellar.
Once I made the shift to focusing exclusively on the main blockage, it felt like someone handed me the skeleton key to unlock real, tangible results.
Free from the tyranny of âjust one more thingââŠ
I became more creative, more decisive, and more profitable.
So hereâs the bottom line:
If your biggest headache is lead generation, fix that first.
If itâs customer retention, fix that.
If itâs your product, fix that.
Everything else goes to the bottom of the to-do list or gets binned completely.

Mega-Prompt of the Week đ€
Use AI to Analyse & Purge your To-Do List
This prompt will get AI to analyse your current to-do list and help you identify what to Eliminate, Delegate or Simplify.
It should also assign an hourly rate for that task as either $10/hour, $100/hour, $1000/hour or $10,000 - based on the ROI of the task.
