It’s been a few weeks since my last post, mostly because I’ve been working on an essay on one of my favorite topics: high agency.
You may have heard me talk about high agency before but I believe it’s the most important skill for anyone to learn in the 21st century.
Please read the essay at https://www.becomehighagency.com and let me know your feedback!
Here’s the introduction:
Are you sick of living life on autopilot? Do you want to become the kind of person that always gets what they want? If you’ve arrived here you’re probably familiar with the concept of high agency (if not, read on). I believe it is the single most important skill you can develop as a human, and anyone can learn it.
Want to be more respected? Become high agency. Want to be more attractive? Women and men alike both love competence because it signals “high value.” Become high agency. Want to get what you want out of life? Become high agency.
Now, am I the most high agency person alive? No, but I built a company, with no funding, to the INC5000, helped thousands of startups, exited for millions, wrote a book, developed a productivity system, created a business operating system and built a life that I think is pretty great.
I think high agency will make our world better. I’ve always been obsessed with understanding high performance behavior and I think teaching it is the highest leverage thing I can do. So, as is said, “the coach isn’t always the best player,” but I do think I’m onto something here if you’ll give me a few minutes. This information could change your life.
Agency is a huge topic, we’re basically trying to understand and codify human accomplishment and effectiveness. I’ve tried my best to condense this into something as short and actionable as possible. Read carefully though, some paragraphs cover a concept that took myself and others a lifetime to learn!
