Top athletes from around the world, including Olympic medal winners, are gathering this Memorial Day weekend for a new Donald Trump Jr.-backed sports competition—and drugs are not only allowed but encouraged. Taking place in Las Vegas, the Enhanced Games will host 42 athletes engaged in swimming, weightlifting, and running competitions. A tournament fit for Sin City, some 90% of the participating athletes admittedly use performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), which are otherwise banned for both domestic and international competitions like the Olympics. These games are organized by Enhanced, which describes itself as a “direct-to-consumer longevity medicine company committed to giving athletes . . .…

If you want to succeed at work, you not only need to get work done, you need to do the right kind of work. That work involves helping to complete projects that really matter to your organization—ones that are central to the mission. You don’t get assigned to those key projects right away. They tend to be run by leaders with significant experience and are staffed by others who have proven their capabilities and have demonstrated how they will contribute to a positive outcome. How do you become one of those go-to individuals? Carry a lot of water If you’re…
Recently, a senior executive shared something that initially sounded surprising. “I find it easier to open up to AI than to a person.” She was referring to an AI coaching platform her company had introduced. The tool prompted reflective questions, helped her think through challenges, and generated suggestions based on patterns in her responses. She appreciated the privacy and the absence of judgment. “There’s no pressure,” she explained. “The system just helps me think.” Her reaction isn’t unusual. As artificial intelligence tools become more sophisticated, many organizations are experimenting with AI-powered coaching platforms. These systems promise scale, consistency, and immediate…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways If your company doesn’t land in the first 10 seconds, people don’t slow down and give you more runway; they just quietly file you under the closest thing they already know and move on. Being specific about what your product is and is not is one of the most underused tools in early-stage messaging. There’s a version of this conversation that happens all the time. A founder is pitching, doing an interview or just talking to someone at a conference, and somewhere around minute three, it becomes clear that the…
For years, Apple has put a lot of effort into providing users with ways to extend their iPhone’s battery life. But while iOS slowly introduced more battery-management features for iPhone, Apple’s other big battery-powered device, the MacBook, was left behind. Lately, that’s changed. Today, Apple’s laptops, particularly those running macOS 26, offer numerous battery and charging management features that aim to keep your MacBook’s battery lasting as long as possible. Best of all, they work whether you have the most powerful MacBook Pro or Apple’s most affordable laptop, the MacBook Neo. Here’s how to extend battery life: Turn on Low…
Want more housing market stories from Lance Lambert’s ResiClub in your inbox? Subscribe to the ResiClub newsletter. Many of the softest housing markets, where homebuyers have gained the most leverage over the past four years since the pandemic housing boom ended, are located in Southern and Mountain West regions. Many of those areas were home to the nation’s top pandemic boomtowns, which experienced significant home price growth during the pandemic housing boom, stretching housing prices beyond local income levels. Once pandemic-fueled domestic migration slowed and mortgage rates spiked, markets like Punta Gorda, Florida, and Austin faced challenges as they had…
It was a bad week for AI’s public image. The concept was booed on mention at several commencement speeches, tarnished a literary prize, drove more layoffs, and tangled local politics in a number of data-center squabbles. A hyped new book about AI’s impact on “truth” was dragged for including fake quotes made up by AI. Pope Leo XIV’s forthcoming encyclical will concern “safeguarding the human person in the time of artificial intelligence,” Vatican News reported. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen something intensify this quickly,” mused one of the researchers behind a recent poll from Stanford University and the University…
The old adage goes that during a boom, the companies that profit most are the ones selling the picks and shovels. This January, even as consensus had largely settled around the idea that an AI bubble exists, something even Sam Altman acknowledged last August, Blackstone called investing in the “picks and shovels” of AI a “generational” opportunity. The safer bet, we’re told, lies not in the models themselves but in AI’s physical infrastructure: data centers, chips, and electricity. “The Real AI Talent War Is for Plumbers and Electricians,” declared a January headline in Wired. Of the major players in artificial…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Key Takeaways Stablecoin checkout reduces payment friction, but trust gaps still kill conversions and customer confidence. Clear identity, refund policies and support matter more than faster blockchain payment rails. Stablecoin adoption succeeds when businesses prioritize transparency, security and operational credibility before integration. Founders love the idea of instant cross-border settlement and zero chargebacks. The appeal is obvious. You integrate a new payment API, bypass traditional banking fees and open your business to a global audience. But there is a fundamental misunderstanding about what actually stops a user from completing a purchase. It…
Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. Many entrepreneurs experience a moment when their company reaches peak value. The challenge is that the moment rarely lasts long, and most founders don’t recognize it while they’re still inside it.Many founders assume value builds in a straight line. You grow revenue, scale operations and eventually sell at the top. It sounds rational, but that belief causes many entrepreneurs to hold on too long. Timing drives a significant portion of enterprise value, and timing is influenced just as much by market conditions as by execution.I’ve experienced both sides of this. I’ve exited…
