Are you spending your best time chasing small financial gains while your biggest opportunity is sitting right in front of you?

In this episode, Jon Orr unpacks a simple but powerful question every business owner and investor needs to ask: are the inputs required to reach a goal actually worth the output? Through stories about kite surfing, marathon running, poker, and portfolio management, he explores how easy it is to confuse “I could do this” with “I should do this.”

For entrepreneurs especially, the real tension is often between actively growing the business and spending countless hours trying to optimize passive investments. Sometimes the smartest move is not doing more—it is choosing where your time creates the greatest return.

You’ll walk away with:

A clearer way to evaluate whether a goal is worth the time, energy, and commitment it requires.
A practical lens for deciding whether your “alpha” comes from your investment portfolio or your active business.
Permission to let passive assets stay passive so you can focus on the areas where your effort creates the biggest payoff.

Press play now to rethink where your time is going—and whether the trade-off is truly worth it.
