The Theory of Constraints

“Your business will grow up to its constraint and no more.”

This past Friday, 9 business owners spent ~$150,000 to spend a single day with Alex Hormozi. I was lucky to be in the room.

And one of the biggest lessons I took away was the Theory of Constraints

Put simply:

Every system has a bottleneck. And that bottleneck sets the ceiling for growth.

Until you identify and solve it, nothing else matters.

Most people ignore this.

The basketball player who keeps drilling right-handed layups - but can't go left.

The bodybuilder who skips leg day - because chest day feels better.

The intern who works harder - when the real issue is visibility.

They aren’t bad at what they do. They’re just focused on the wrong thing.

The truth is, the fastest-growing people and businesses aren’t the smartest.

They’re just ruthless about finding and fixing their #1 constraint.

So the next time you feel stuck, don’t default to “work harder.”

Pause and ask:

What’s my current constraint?

Because your growth will never exceed your weakest link.

Until next week,
