The 3 Laws: Escape Chaos, Unlock Clarity, Achieve Epic Results

Escape the chaos. Choose clarity. Achieve epic results.

Marcus Chen thought success meant climbing the corporate ladder at Complex Corp-until he discovered he was drowning in a sea of manufactured complexity. Endless meetings about meetings, 312-page expense procedures, and sophisticated systems nobody could actually use.

When he glimpses Simple Co across the parking lot-where people accomplish more in hours than his team does in weeks-Marcus embarks on a transformation journey that will either revolutionize his career or destroy it.

The 3 Laws Book reveals the battle-tested principles that separate high-performing organizations from bureaucratic nightmares:

Law 1: Simplify Before You Add
Stop piling complexity on broken systems. Strip away what doesn't add value.

Law 2: Clarity Before Clever
Choose solutions that work over solutions that impress.

Law 3: Results Before Activity
Focus on outcomes, not how busy you look.

From former U.S. Air Force pilot and CEO Greg Born comes a business parable that cuts through corporate dysfunction with surgical precision. This isn't another management theory-it's a practical roadmap for leaders who are tired of fighting systems designed to prevent success.

Whether you're drowning in approval chains, meaningless meetings, or processes that make simple tasks impossibly complex, The 3 Laws provides your escape route from chaos to clarity.

Perfect for leaders, managers, entrepreneurs, and anyone who suspects work doesn't have to be this hard.

Your choice: Complexity or clarity. Chaos or results. The old way or The 3 Laws way.

About the Author

About the Author



Greg Born is a former U.S. Air Force instructor pilot who commanded the massive C-5 Galaxy aircraft, where he learned that chaos kills and clarity saves lives. One foggy night over the North Atlantic, with low visibility and a loss of cabin pressure, survival wasn't about brute force or clever tricks—it was about disciplined choices: simplify the problem, clarify the path, and focus on results over frantic activity.



These life-and-death lessons from the unforgiving cockpit shaped Greg's approach as a business growth and turnaround expert who has held multiple CEO roles. He specializes in helping organizations escape the complexity trap that destroys performance and breaks good people.



Greg has Fortune 500 leadership experience and combines real-world aviation discipline with practical business strategy. His approach isn't about inspirational theory—it's about battle-tested principles that cut through corporate dysfunction to unlock epic results.



Greg is also the author of:


  • Built to Soar: Stop Flying Blind - A comprehensive framework for engineering high-performance businesses
  • Be A Better Leader: 1 Simple Thing - Practical leadership disciplines that transform results


Drawing from real turnarounds where good teams were trapped in bad systems—endless meetings, convoluted processes, and activity without achievement—Greg shows how leaders can choose clarity over chaos, simplicity over complexity, and results over mere activity.



Greg lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with his wife Laura. When he's not helping organizations soar, you can find him hiking the hills of Tennessee—because The 3 Laws didn't just change his business results, they gave him his life back.
