Is a Fear of Outsourcing Keeping you from Attaining Your Goals?

We’ve all heard some form of the old adage, “Why hire someone when I can do it myself?” I know I’ve heard my dad say that my entire life– and while I will admit, my dad can fix anything you put in front of him– I can see the places in his life that are lacking because of stubbornness or the unwillingness to allow someone else to do something.

On the surface I totally get it. All of our lives we have been conditioned to save money at any lengths possible. Until we started this book I would not have batted an eye at anyone that told me to save money by doing something on my own. However, that is why ‘Hack Your Job’ is such a revolutionary and eye-opening book; it challenges your pre-conditioned views of what success is and how to attain it.

Outsourcing is a key feature of ‘Hack Your Job’ and the depth of research within the book proves that spending money to outsource small and mid-sized projects positively affects attaining goals within a project. 

For example, if I had not outsourced a ghostwriter to finish writing this book for me, the book would have never been completed. I had multiple other projects going and trying to juggle them all on my own was noticeably taking its toll on me and the potential success of each project. 

I am now able to directly attribute much of the success of the book to outsourcing by freeing up my time and allowing me to focus on getting the cover designed, edit the ghostwriter, and come up with any new ideas I might have missed before I hired a ghostwriter. Stop letting ‘saving money’ get in the way of your goals.
