Hire remote employees with confidence

Two years ago, I hired an offshore assistant , and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. From marketing to customer support, it’s helped streamline work and boost productivity.

| Mental Model

Table Selection

The game you play—or the table you select—is more important than how you play.

You don’t need to get good at doing difficult things if you get good at avoiding difficult things. If you want to win, pick an easy table and nail your execution.

| Insight

Challenge: Write about a recent disagreement and how it could have been an opportunity for growth if both parties had been open to learning from each other.

Example: A debate with a coworker, a difference of opinion with a friend, or a family conflict.

A Visual I Enjoyed

Have a wonderful Wednesday, all.

Until next time,
