The laboratory of smart cuts
10x is a method,
not a miracle.
Some curves can be bent. Metabolism has switches, learning has accelerants, businesses have leverage points — and every one of them has been mapped by someone who refused to grind linearly. TenX Science catalogs those maps: nine disciplines where the right framework beats the extra hour.
Browse the disciplinesNine disciplines. One physics.
Each is a field where inputs and outputs are famously non-linear — and where a small set of principles does most of the work.
Keto
Flip the fuel source and appetite, energy, and focus stop fighting you. The oldest smart cut in the catalog.
Field guide live → keto.schuleIntermittent Fasting
The schedule is the diet: fewer decisions, cleaner hormones, and mornings that belong to you instead of breakfast.
Fitness Hacking
Minimum effective dose: short, hard, measured. Intensity is the shortcut cardio keeps promising.
Tool live → thetrain.ingSpeed Reading
Read for extraction, not decoration — preview, interrogate, harvest. Most books are an essay wearing a coat.
Accelerated Learning
Spaced, tested, taught: learn the way memory actually works, and skills stop taking years they never needed.
Productivity
Deep work blocks, ruthless defaults, a calendar defended like a fortress. The 10x isn't doing more — it's protecting the two hours that matter from the six that don't.
Growth Hacking
Distribution beats polish. Loops beat funnels. Whatever compounds, wins.
Business Acceleration
Find the constraint, apply the leverage, watch the one metric that matters. Everything else is decoration.
Modern Trading & Investing
Process over prediction: rules-based systems, position sizing, and risk management — studied as disciplines, not hot tips. Education only; nothing here is financial advice.
What counts as a smart cut?
Every framework in the catalog has to pass three tests.
It compounds
A real cut pays again tomorrow without being re-earned. Fat-adaptation, a reading system, an automated funnel — set once, collect daily.
It's leveraged
Small input, disproportionate output. If the result scales one-to-one with effort, it's a job, not a framework.
It's cheap to try
Reversible experiments only: two weeks, clear scoreboard, easy exit. Smart cuts don't require faith — they require a calendar.
Reading is the warm-up.
Twelve weeks is the test.
Every discipline here becomes a 12-week challenge at our sister site — one framework, daily reps, a scoreboard, and a finish line.
