The first thing a data center builds is a fence. But in business building, what's inside the fence is what matters: people who know their trade and their craft. Whatever you're building, people are the unlock.

If you're not dreaming, change something. If you're building, stay in the game. The right people, opportunities and momentum come to you. Building a company, building toward 48.6 miles in January, building a family. Day by day.

Critical infrastructure simply means the things that can't go down. Power. Water. Data centers. Your phone. Behind all of it is a group of people we never see. That's who I think we should celebrate today.

Max Monday Ep1. A quote that used to take hours now takes minutes. Max builds the first draft, I approve it or kill it. This week's challenge: hand off ONE task. Just one. Unleash and see what happens to your speed.

This AI timeline was going around our builders group chat yesterday...

AI takes over digital work by 2027. A billion humanoid robots by 2036. Work becomes optional somewhere in between.

Maybe.

But every date on that list needs something built first. A billion robots need power. AI needs data centers. Data centers need substations, cooling, permits, steel, and crews who build it right the first time.

That runs on concrete cure times and utility queues, not software release cycles.

AI is moving fast. Can the world change this fast? I don't know.

Saturday long run. Stupid hard. Mile 9 I crashed, dropping from a 9:30 pace to 12:00. One of my running buddies stayed with me anyway. No complaining, just being there.

It's always better to be building together. Keep building, friends.

Scars and Lessons, Ep 1. New every Friday.

At 28 I started my first company with $26,000. Sold it. Built an oilfield services company. Watched oil go negative in 2020.

Every chapter paid tuition for the next one. What hard chapter taught you the most?

Today…. Started early ended late, but got a chance to do a lot of cool stuff with some great team members. Even got to make an impromptu visit to Notre Dame.

No two days ever seem to be the same when you're building a business, but every day is full of adventure: lots of hard and a little bit of good.

The only thing I know for sure is that the people we meet along the way are what make it all worth it.

Much respect team!

Friday checklist... on the road.

Bible first. Always. ✔

Run. Eat clean. Sleep. Watch my kid’s LAX game. Finish strong.

Simple stuff. But the simple stuff is usually the right stuff.

Whatever your Friday looks like... finish it well, friends.

Gratitude, gratitude, gratitude. 🤍

Back at it, building today... and had lunch with a few guys where the whole conversation, the hors d'oeuvre of the day, haha... was people.

Which might sound funny coming from us. We live in a world where AI is rapidly changing how businesses get built. Heck, we run our entire back end through our friend Max, our AI-enabled operating system. We are trying to become AI native. Not a dozen systems tacked together, but one singular system that does it all.

But here is what today's conversation reminded me, friends...

We still have to be the creatives who put the ideas into Max. We still have to be the experience layer that reviews what Max gives back. The tool moves fast, but the thinking, the judgment, the taste... that is still us. That will always be us.

Because at the end of the day, building any big business still comes down to the same 3 ingredients.

People. Process. Purpose.

AI amplifies all three. It replaces none of them.

Just keep building, friends...

Which of the 3 ingredients is your strongest right now? Tell me below. 👇
