Stop planning. Start doing the next right thing.
Leverage: The next right thing, every day.
Six things. In order. Every day.
You've always known the answer is to focus on the next right thing. The Stoics taught it. Coach Saban built dynasties on it. Now you have a coach that knows what your next right thing actually is — and then the next, and the next. Six at a time, in order. Built on the 1918 method that earned Charles Schwab a $25,000 consulting bill (about $500,000 today).
The $25,000 idea
One idea. Fifteen minutes. The most profitable advice in business history.
In 1918, the president of Bethlehem Steel paid a consultant named Ivy Lee $25,000 (over half a million dollars today) for a single idea that took fifteen minutes to explain.
Each night, write down the six most important things to do tomorrow. Rank them. Start on number one in the morning and work it to done before you touch number two. Whatever's left, carry forward to a new six the next night.
Bethlehem Steel went on to become the largest independent steel producer in the world. Charles Schwab called it the most profitable advice he'd ever received. A century later, nobody has improved on it.
The trap
Every task app makes it worse.
Todoist, Things, Notion, Motion — same bet: capture more, tag more, organize more. You end up the librarian of your own to-do list. The system grows. The doing shrinks.
But capturing tasks was never the hard part. The hard part is deciding which six matter today. No app decides that for you. They store. The choice is still yours, every morning, on an empty stomach.
The difference
Leverage decides. It doesn't store.
A coach who actually knows you, running the 1918 method underneath:
- Dump whatever's on your mind. No setup, no tags, no projects to build first.
- Ask “what should I do today?” and get six, in order — with the reasoning for each.
- Work number one to done. Finish the day, and it gets sharper about you.

No methodology to learn. No backlog to groom. Five steps, and most of them are mine.
