Personal Development 2.0. I write about systems and high-performance living ⚡ Cornell MBA • 1.6M+ audience

Hi, I'm Ben Meer.

Tired of non-actionable life advice, I started writing online in February 2022.

Here are the results:

→ Built social audience from 0 to 2M+ (across IG, LinkedIn, and X) 
→ Grew 0 to 690K+ followers on LinkedIn in 21 months
→ Scaled newsletter—System Sunday—from 0 to 270K+ subscribers

There are 3 primary ways I can help you:

1) SYSTEM SUNDAY NEWSLETTER

Most people don't know how to build life systems to accelerate personal growth. So I created a weekly newsletter that teaches these systems (it's free). Subscribe to unlock new levels of wealth, health, and freedom.

I wish I knew this leadership method sooner:

The Pygmalion Effect.

When you believe in an employee's potential, they rise to meet your expectations.

This effect is so powerful that researchers found just 19 words can unlock it:

"I'm giving you these comments because I have very high expectations, and I am confident you can reach them."

Real-world examples:

• A manager believes in an employee's potential → provides more opportunities → employee excels
• A teacher expects a student to succeed → gives more attention and feedback → student improves
• A coach sees talent in an athlete → increases training intensity → athlete performs better
• A mentor believes in a mentee → shares advanced knowledge → mentee grows faster

Growth becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Here are 3 ways managers (and parents) can leverage this effect:

1. Set and communicate high expectations
↳ Be explicit about your confidence in others.
↳ Show trust through meaningful assignments.

2. Use the "19 words" framework when giving feedback
↳ Start with belief before critique.
↳ Frame feedback as an investment in growth.

3. Create a positive expectation loop
↳ Notice and acknowledge progress.
↳ Raise expectations gradually.

The key lesson?

Your belief in others builds their belief in themselves.

The AAR Method (used by U.S. Armed Forces and Fortune 500 companies):

Here's the 4-question framework to learn from any experience:

1. What did I intend to accomplish?
2. What happened?
3. Why did it happen that way?
4. What will I do next time?

It's called an After-Action Review (AAR).

Here's why it's powerful:

Most people repeat mistakes because they never examine why they happened.

The highest performers:

• They find root causes, not symptoms.
• They are soft on the person, hard on the problem.
• They turn lessons into systems.

The best part?
It scales from personal use to enterprise:

• Failed presentations
• Project post-mortems
• Team performance
• Product launches
• Daily operations
