Simon Sinek built systems for compounding progress that outperformed more talented peers who relied on motivation. Simon Sinek's approach to identity, habit, and output — captured in this framework as mental models, decision heuristics, and the signature questions they would ask. The start with why & infinite games framework distils Simon Sinek's documented approach into a .md skill file you can load into Claude, ChatGPT, or any LLM in seconds. Where most AI personas generate generic output, this framework is grounded in real documented work: interviews, writing, published frameworks, and the specific decisions Simon Sinek made when it mattered. Use it for decision-making, writing, strategy, or any situation where you want your AI to think with Simon Sinek's distinctive patterns rather than a default model voice.

Inside the framework

A glimpse of Simon Sinek's thinking.

Core Philosophy

Great leaders don't just tell people what to do—they inspire them to want to do it. The goal isn't to be perfect; it's to be better than you were yesterday, and to create conditions where others can do the same. In business, there are no winners and losers, only ahead and behind.
