Life or Death: The Secret to Closing Fortune 100s

Your closing process in a nutshell:

Think of yourself like an ER doctor where the patient presents

He’s got cardiac arrest, a sprained ankle, a broken toe, a gash in his right arm, and bleeding from his forehead.

Triage. Focus on the High-Variance shit first, then everything else.

You know it’s life or death - the patient’s life or death is in your hands.

But here’s the Twist.

The patient is rolled in and a...

Objections are bugs your investor / customer / employee’s / wife’s codebase.

It is your job to refactor them.

And help them get what they want.

The founders who apply to The CEO Cohort aren’t just chasing a short-term exit. They’re the most ambitious, long-term positive-sum founders who want true durable scale.

That’s why we commit to the Three-Year-Plan:

Your biggest Step-Function Transformations come from compound growth.We overestimate what we can get done in 30 days and underestimate what we can get done in 3 years.Without the Three‑Year-Plan, every problem feels urgent, and in physics terms, your distance traveled is through the roof while net displacement is zero.

Who is the Errol in your life?

The dad you said you’d never amount to anything, who sided with the bully, or the mom who made her love conditional?

The reason most founders sell and you never hear of them again - or they become some empty VC or tweeter - is because they Never learn to harness or leverage their trauma.

Who is the Errol in your life?

Some learn to transmute that into love and give that love to the world in a way they didn’t receive.

When it feels scary, gag and go.

The fear is not a stop sign. That is the go signal.

That feeling means you are at the exact threshold that matters.

The threshold where the next step function transformation lives.

Every part of the 94x SpaceX multiple is a receipt for what happens when the founder refuses to stop at the threshold.

The Down Round Delusion

06/04/2026

Down about your down round?

The only real down round is when the founder is down.

And then so down that he chooses to officially go down.

Not because of capital - capital is never the constraint.

Because he loses belief.

In himself first.

The only down round is death itself - but by then you’re already six feet down under,.
