The Book On Strategic Obsession
How to Turn Long-Term Thinking Into a Competitive Weapon
By David Webb
Most people think in days, weeks, or months. The few who believe in decades-and align every action to that horizon-change the game entirely. The Book On Strategic Obsession is about becoming one of those few.
This is not a celebration of overwork or blind persistence. It's about building a sustained, disciplined focus on a long-term objective, structuring your life and work so that every decision compounds toward it. Strategic obsession means clarity of aim, ruthless prioritization, and an ability to ignore the noise that pulls others off course.
Inside, you'll learn:
- How to define a long-term objective that is both ambitious and achievable.
- The architecture of focus that keeps you locked on target over years, not weeks.
- How to engineer feedback loops that refine your path without breaking your momentum.
- The role of patience as a competitive advantage.
- How to resist the lure of short-term wins that sabotage the bigger play.
Drawing from strategic planning, behavioral science, and case studies of leaders who have achieved seemingly impossible goals, this book gives you the frameworks to outlast and outperform competitors who burn out or drift.
The result isn't just achieving a goal-it's building an identity as the kind of operator who stays the course when others can't.
If you've ever wondered why some people or organizations seem unstoppable, this is the manual for understanding-and becoming-one of them.

David Webb is a seasoned entrepreneur and business leader with more than three decades of experience at the intersection of technology, finance, and services. As the founder and CEO of multiple ventures-some celebrated successes and some hard-learned failures-he has cultivated a reputation for turning complexity into clarity, driving growth, and leading organizations through periods of both turbulence and transformation. His career has been defined by a willingness to take calculated risks, embrace innovation, and pursue opportunities others often overlook.David's debut book, Life Unscripted: What You Should Have Learned in High School, distilled years of professional and personal experience into a practical guide for navigating the overlooked realities of adulthood. His second work, The Book On Risk Management in Payments, marked a decisive step into specialized territory, tackling one of the most pressing challenges in global commerce: how to anticipate threats, safeguard trust, and manage risk in a world where money moves faster than regulation.With his third book, The Book On Strategic Obsession: How to Turn Long-Term Thinking Into a Competitive Weapon, David advances his mission even further. Here he explores the discipline of sustained, long-horizon thinking as a defining advantage in leadership and strategy. Drawing from decades at the intersection of leadership, risk, and relentless execution, he challenges readers to rethink strategy-not as a plan on paper, but as an enduring obsession that separates fleeting achievements from lasting success.Beyond writing and business, David remains committed to mentoring entrepreneurs and contributing to community initiatives that promote education, resilience, and personal growth. Whether in boardrooms, classrooms, or in print, his work reflects a consistent theme: empowering others to think critically, act decisively, and build systems that endure.
