Your Life Doesn't Need a Blueprint. It Needs a Better Architect.
Start Thinking DifferentlyYour calendar is a crime scene.
Let's be honest. Life pulls us in a million directions, leaving our most important work—in our families, our careers, and our faith—for last. A meaningful life isn't found by "going with the flow"; it's built with purpose and creativity. This is your weekly guide to Crafting Beauty out of Chaos.
Mental Models for What Matters
Life is too shaggy for a rigid five-step plan. The world's most effective people don't rely on a single framework; they rely on a toolkit of powerful mental models. These are timeless principles you can use to think more clearly and act more effectively, no matter what the world throws at you.
1. Leverage: A mental model for seeing where the smallest, smartest effort can create the largest output in your work and life.
2. Compounding: A mental model for understanding how small, unremarkable actions, repeated consistently, build an undeniable future.
3. Feedback: A mental model for treating every outcome—good or bad—as valuable data that informs your next move.

The Engineer Who Escaped the Blueprint
My name is Javier Feliu. By training, I’m an Industrial Engineer with an MBA. I spent years learning to build perfect systems, processes, and frameworks.
Then I spent 15 years as an entrepreneur, where I learned a hard truth: the real world shreds perfect plans.
My life is a shaggy mix of corporate strategy, workshop sawdust, and family life. I believe the tools for navigating it all aren't found in a textbook; they're forged in reflection. The Shaggy Report is where I share those reflections.
Someone is going to win the lottery, but likely it won’t be us.
