A.) By Bhushan UndyingWill Kore:
1. The Algorithm of Awareness
R – Recognise
A – Accept
I – Investigate
N – Non-Identify
R – What is the Requirement?
D – Delete what is not a requirement.
2. The System
3. The cycle of Ignorance + Debuffs
B.) By Elon Musk:
1. The Algorithm of Action
R – Requirement = Question every requirement.
D – Delete = Delete what is not a requirement.
S – Simplify = Simplify and/or optimise.
A – Accelerate = Accelerate cycle time.
A – Automate = Automate the System.
C.) By Jeffery Bezos:
1. One way door vs two way door
One-Way Door
A decision that is:
- hard to reverse,
- costly to undo,
- permanently changes things.
Examples:
- selling your company,
- quitting a stable career,
- huge acquisitions.
Essence:
Move slowly and carefully.
Two-Way Door
A decision that is:
- reversible,
- experimental,
- low long-term risk.
Examples:
- trying a new feature,
- testing a business idea,
- learning a skill.
Essence:
Move fast and experiment.
The deeper insight:
Most people treat reversible decisions like irreversible ones.
That creates overthinking and paralysis.
Bezos encourages:
- fast action on reversible choices,
- deep thinking on irreversible choices.
2. Regret Minimization Framework
When Bezos left his Wall Street job to start Amazon, he imagined himself at age 80 asking:
“Will I regret not trying?”
He realized:
- failure would hurt temporarily,
- never trying would hurt permanently.
So the model is:
Instead of asking:
“What is safest now?”
ask:
“What future regret will matter most?”
Essence of Both Models Together
- Reversible decisions → experiment boldly.
- Irreversible decisions → think deeply.
- Long-term regret matters more than short-term fear.
