Intellectual property is more than content - it's infrastructure. It's the lever Archimedes dreamed of, capable of moving anything without requiring a planet-sized fulcrum.

Key Points:

- Why thought is the ultimate form of leverage (scales without friction, replicates without loss)
- How Git transformed from a simple tool into a $7.5 billion ecosystem
- Why a newsletter writer with 5,000 subscribers can generate $600K annually
- The cultural shift from the 1710 Statute of Anne to today's creator economy
- Why first movers in new fields claim enormous territory through clear thinking

The Reality Check:
We still reward visible busyness over invisible thinking. We treat writing, strategy, and frameworks as luxuries instead of recognizing them as the source code of everything else. This is a massive mistake.

What You'll Learn:
- Why you should turn thoughts into artifacts that work while you sleep
- Why criticism is the price of scale (and why it's worth paying)
- The courage gap that keeps most people from publishing their ideas

The physical world is zero-sum. Intellectual work isn't.

The longer your lever, the further you'll reach.
