Speed is a growth multiplier — and hesitation is a silent tax.

In fast-moving markets, opportunities have an expiration date. The founders who outpace their peers aren’t always the smartest or most funded. They’re the ones who make Type 2 decisions (reversible ones) quickly, so they can reserve energy for the Type 1 calls that truly matter.

The slow mover’s trap looks like this:

• Waiting for “perfect” data instead of using the 80% you already have
  
• Letting committee consensus dilute bold ideas
  
• Delaying launches until a competitor validates the concept
  

By the time these leaders make a move, the market has shifted. The playbook that could have been a category win is now a catch-up game.

Speed doesn’t mean recklessness — it means building decision-making systems that protect your focus and allow you to act while the window is open.

In 2025, the opportunity cost of moving slow is bigger than the cost of a wrong turn.
