From My First Million · Published Feb 4, 2026 · Watch on YouTube

TL;DR

The hosts review their most impactful learnings from 2025, covering leadership through speeches (Churchill), the churn benefits of in-person community (Hampton), investing decision frameworks (Howard Marks on selling), a personal decision‑register system, and the “big rocks” time‑management metaphor.

Key insights

  • Most people spend their lives “pumping” (working) without ever “drinking” (enjoying the purpose), a metaphor from Die with Zero.
  • Winston Churchill’s speeches – e.g., “We’ll fight in the beaches” – could change the morale of tens of millions; one person can exert small energy to shift collective energy.
  • Moving Hampton from digital to in‑person meetings raised annual retention from ~60% to 85–90%, despite the operational difficulty.
