The Mentor Briefing

Hormozi just shared his 2026 goals. One number stands out.

What your mentors have been thinking about this week — and what it means for you.

Question this briefing answers

What are Alex Hormozi’s 2026 goals, and why does one number reveal more than the rest?

Brief answer: What your mentors have been thinking about this week — and what it means for you.

MENTOR SPOTLIGHT

Hormozi just shared his 2026 goals. One number stands out.

Alex Hormozi runs a portfolio doing $250M+/year. Most people at that level stop sharing their thinking publicly. He does the opposite.

This week he published his 2026 goals. The headline: Skool, his community platform, is targeting a $6–8 billion valuation within 24 months. Acquisition.com is targeting $2–3 billion in the same window.

But the more interesting part is what he said about himself. He’s not trying to maximize the number. His reasoning: beyond a certain point, more money stops making meaningful differences in his life. So the real question becomes — what’s actually worth the work?

“The goal isn’t to make more. The goal is to become the person for whom making more is the natural result.”

— Alex Hormozi

Most people set goals backward. They pick a number and reverse-engineer how to reach it. Hormozi sets identity targets first. The revenue follows the person, not the plan. That reframe is worth sitting with.

IN THE NEWS

Mark Cuban: On the High Performance podcast in February, Cuban said AI is still in its earliest stages — and that it’s about to do what the internet did to location: make where you build irrelevant. His point isn’t that AI replaces people. It’s that AI removes every remaining excuse for not starting. The next billion-dollar company might come from a basement. Cuban uses AI daily for productivity and health tracking — not as strategy, but as tool. That distinction is worth stealing.

Sara Blakely: Sneex — her sneaker-heel hybrid — is now shipping. Four years of development, handcrafted in Spain, $395–$595. She worked on it while running Spanx and raising four kids, and told nobody for a year. Her rule: protect the idea before it’s strong enough to survive outside opinion. If you’re sitting on something early, Blakely has a specific take on when to finally share it.

QUICK WISDOM

“Volume negates luck. The more offers you make, the more problems you solve, the more content you put out — eventually something has to hit.”

— Alex Hormozi

Consistency isn’t a personality trait. It’s a math strategy.

“It doesn’t matter how many times you get knocked down. What matters is what you do when you get back up.”

— Mark Cuban

Cuban slept on floors before Broadcast.com. The credential isn’t talent — it’s how many times you went back.

“I waited a full year before telling anyone what I was working on. Ideas are most vulnerable the moment you have them.”

— Sara Blakely

This isn’t secrecy as tactic. It’s protecting early-stage fragility from premature scrutiny.

LeBron's next move (and yours)

LeBron James has been everywhere this month. He's taping podcasts, speaking on panels, and attending galas. The one thing he isn't doing is announcing which NBA team he'll play for next. His very public 'deliberation phase' is a masterclass in managing a career transition under a microscope.

Trump's legislative refusal

Some people wait for permission. Others create their own leverage. This week, we look at a president who refused to sign a bill to get something else he wanted, and a comedian whose schedule became more powerful than a movie deal.
