Joe Polish and Dan Sullivan host a LIVE, unscripted 10x Talk episode on why ambition isn't a limited resource—it's a capability you can develop for life. You'll learn how alignment, free days, courage, and human connection (especially in an AI-driven world) keep Entrepreneurs energized, productive, and excited about what's next.

Here's a glance at what you'll discover in this episode:

• Why ambition isn't something you "use up," and how treating it as a capability creates an endless flywheel of growth.
• The prime directives Dan and Babs use to protect alignment, independence, and momentum—so nothing (and no one) gets between them.
• The Lifetime Extender exercise that instantly expands your timeline, reignites motivation, and changes how you make decisions.
• The real reason Entrepreneurs lose ambition: trying to eliminate courage—and the hidden cost of losing excitement.
• How to use AI without losing the human edge: systematize the predictable, humanize the exceptional, and reclaim your time and attention.

Joe Polish and Dan Sullivan continue their conversation on commitment, entrepreneurial freedom, and building company structure that expands creativity instead of restricting it—with a deep dive on hiring, delegation traps, and Dan's new "Casting Not Hiring" framework.

Here's a glance at what you'll discover in this episode:

• The "Company vs. Job" Reality Check: Why most entrepreneurs secretly built a high-paying job—and the simple test Dan uses to tell the difference.
• Reverse Delegation: The silent trap where your "help" creates more work—and how to spot it fast before it becomes your new normal.
• The 90-Day Truth Window: Why Dan won't let a wrong-fit hire linger—and how acting early saves you months of pain.
• Casting Not Hiring: Dan's theater-style framework that replaces job descriptions with roles, so your company performs like a great production.
• Buy Back 10 Hours a Week: The simplest move that can return 500 hours a year—so you finally have time to create, not just cope.

Joe Polish and Dan Sullivan unpack why Entrepreneurs stall when they treat growth as a transaction—and how commitment ("will that builds skill") creates transformational results. They cover lifelong learning, referability habits, and Dan's 100-books-in-100-quarters project as a model for creating the future through commitment.

Here's a glance at what you'll discover in this episode:

• Transactional vs. transformational: why "provisional" commitments stall growth
• Will ↔ Skill flywheel: commitment builds capability; capability strengthens commitment
• Lifelong learning mindset: treat programs as investments, not costs
• "Creative insurance": why Dan doesn't decide event-by-event—he decides for life
• Handling dropouts: empathy without enabling; relationships over extraction
• Referability Habits: show up on time; do what you say; finish what you start; say please & thank you
• Recovery insight: rebuilding self-trust by keeping your own word
