00:16:53 ◼ ► you upload your video and it goes into processing it just seemed like a good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1013">TS</a>]
00:16:57 ◼ ► amount of time that you have no idea so it makes a ton of sense to have a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1017">TS</a>]
00:17:02 ◼ ► progress bar but for some reason it doesn't show every time you send me the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1022">TS</a>]

00:17:14 ◼ ► you were trying to point out because to me that little percentage processing bar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1034">TS</a>]
00:17:19 ◼ ► is just one of the many pieces of you I that sometimes there sometimes it isn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1039">TS</a>]
00:17:23 ◼ ► who knows who knows why it is there who knows why it isn't I would say I see it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1043">TS</a>]
00:17:28 ◼ ► about 25 percent of the time when I upload something and the rest of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1048">TS</a>]
00:17:32 ◼ ► time it's just whatever it says processing and you don't get the little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1052">TS</a>]
00:17:35 ◼ ► indication of when it's done if you get that bar in the future Mikey may be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/1055">TS</a>]

00:55:46 ◼ ► think about what are some of the things I'm currently doing that I don't need to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3346">TS</a>]
00:55:50 ◼ ► do or I can pass along to somebody else to this leads into something that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3350">TS</a>]

00:56:07 ◼ ► can do for you and you are trying to explain this from the way to explain it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3367">TS</a>]
00:56:14 ◼ ► to me which is understanding what the jobs are that you are currently doing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3374">TS</a>]
00:56:18 ◼ ► side of your business that you can outsource because you don't need to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3378">TS</a>]
00:56:22 ◼ ► the more you don't like to do them and it's all about how you delegate things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3382">TS</a>]
00:56:26 ◼ ► and it does kind of an idea of the way the money like how much money you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3386">TS</a>]
00:56:33 ◼ ► willing to pay to get some of your own time back I just got his with the number [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3393">TS</a>]
00:56:37 ◼ ► of people who are running their own businesses or who have started up their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3397">TS</a>]
00:56:42 ◼ ► own things and I think it should be no surprise that the kinds of people who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3402">TS</a>]
00:56:53 ◼ ► end up creating their own businesses are also the kinds of people who feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3413">TS</a>]
00:57:00 ◼ ► they can do a lot of different things in a lot of different areas and that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3420">TS</a>]
00:57:06 ◼ ► don't shrink from doing additional things like even just think sometimes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3426">TS</a>]
00:57:13 ◼ ► about being a professional youtuber there are a surprising number of very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3433">TS</a>]
00:57:21 ◼ ► different skills that you need to have to make this work at the start like when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3441">TS</a>]
00:57:28 ◼ ► you're just a person on your own you know you you need to be able to figure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3448">TS</a>]
00:57:32 ◼ ► out how to put together a presentation you need to figure out how to work with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3452">TS</a>]
00:57:35 ◼ ► video equipment you need to figure out what you can do to be engaging to some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3455">TS</a>]
00:57:43 ◼ ► section of the global audience but then you also need to figure out on your own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3463">TS</a>]
00:57:47 ◼ ► all the back end stuff of YouTube like we were complaining [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3467">TS</a>]
00:57:50 ◼ ► out earlier than you also need to start thinking about some of the the business [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3470">TS</a>]
00:57:54 ◼ ► stuff and so it's very natural you take someone who starts building a business [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3474">TS</a>]
00:57:58 ◼ ► like that you get very used to doing all the things your self and I'm just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3478">TS</a>]
00:58:07 ◼ ► thinking about you too because that's what I'm familiar with but I imagine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3487">TS</a>]
00:58:09 ◼ ► it's very similar to for almost any kind of business but it's it's going to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3489">TS</a>]
00:58:16 ◼ ► very similar for almost anybody who starts up their own thing that at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3496">TS</a>]
00:58:19 ◼ ► beginning when you don't have a business that is generating revenue you are the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3499">TS</a>]
00:58:25 ◼ ► person who needs to do everything everything is your responsibility but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3505">TS</a>]
00:58:31 ◼ ► then if the business become successful there comes a point where you have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3511">TS</a>]
00:58:38 ◼ ► start letting go of control of a lot of these different areas and again at least [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3518">TS</a>]
00:58:47 ◼ ► an experience of everyone that I have spoken to nobody picks the right moment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3527">TS</a>]
00:58:53 ◼ ► everybody waits until way way after they should have done it because they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3533">TS</a>]
00:58:59 ◼ ► recognizing like man I am just overburdened with dealing with all of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3539">TS</a>]
00:59:05 ◼ ► the parts of my business that I just have to bring on someone to help me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3545">TS</a>]

01:06:14 ◼ ► yeah yeah without a doubt this is where I think there are a bunch of mental [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3974">TS</a>]
01:06:20 ◼ ► tools that you can have which helped you think about this stuff and the number [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3980">TS</a>]
01:06:23 ◼ ► one of these is opportunity cost just simply the idea that whatever you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3983">TS</a>]
01:06:29 ◼ ► doing something you can't be doing something else which sounds like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3989">TS</a>]
01:06:35 ◼ ► idea is so obvious but it's very useful to keep in mind of I'm working on this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/3995">TS</a>]
01:06:42 ◼ ► part of my business is the best part like what like how much revenue my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4002">TS</a>]
01:06:48 ◼ ► potentially losing out on by not working on the value generating parts of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4008">TS</a>]

01:07:01 ◼ ► decision-making to figure out what that actual number is and this is where I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4021">TS</a>]
01:07:06 ◼ ► think mission but yeah I didn't mention on the previous shows how I use Launch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4026">TS</a>]

01:07:22 ◼ ► yeah well I just say what I do with it now which is that I track the time that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4042">TS</a>]
01:07:28 ◼ ► I spend on on various parts of my business so i'm i'm able to know pretty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4048">TS</a>]
01:07:34 ◼ ► accurately how much time did I spend writing or animating YouTube video vs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4054">TS</a>]
01:07:39 ◼ ► working on cortex vs working on hello internet I track all over those in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4059">TS</a>]
01:07:44 ◼ ► regular units of time for myself but one of the big reasons that I do that is it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4064">TS</a>]
01:07:51 ◼ ► half just because I find that very effective way to work I just learned [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4071">TS</a>]
01:07:57 ◼ ► it's like doing these little dashes of work that's very helpful but it's also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4077">TS</a>]
01:08:02 ◼ ► so that I can take some numbers about what revenue is generated by different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4082">TS</a>]
01:08:08 ◼ ► activities and come up with an exact number for opportunity cost for various [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4088">TS</a>]
01:08:15 ◼ ► things that I do so when I say like oh I have an idea about how much it costs me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4095">TS</a>]
01:08:20 ◼ ► to work on part exit the business versus part why I actually have a number I know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4100">TS</a>]
01:08:26 ◼ ► actly what that number is and in a business context that's also where it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4106">TS</a>]
01:08:31 ◼ ► helpful when you think about things like hiring and accounted for hiring a lawyer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4111">TS</a>]
01:08:36 ◼ ► or like with my personal assistant I can have some numbers that make sense about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4116">TS</a>]
01:08:41 ◼ ► how much am I willing to pay in the business to have people help me with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4121">TS</a>]
01:08:47 ◼ ► various things over time this has been really interesting because I have seen a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4127">TS</a>]
01:08:52 ◼ ► personality shift in myself in the last maybe year or two where I used to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4132">TS</a>]
01:09:02 ◼ ► very very used to being on top of every single part of my business and keeping [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4142">TS</a>]
01:09:08 ◼ ► track of absolutely everything and now I find myself much more focusing on ok [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4148">TS</a>]
01:09:14 ◼ ► what else can I have other people do or help me with to the point where as we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4154">TS</a>]
01:09:19 ◼ ► were actually discussing just before the show started i just load paper work of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4159">TS</a>]
01:09:25 ◼ ► any kind and I used to be really good at always filling out paperwork and making [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4165">TS</a>]
01:09:30 ◼ ► sure all the forms are in are in place and everything is set and now my opinion [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4170">TS</a>]
01:09:34 ◼ ► on that is largely ok my personal assistant knows just about everything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4174">TS</a>]
01:09:38 ◼ ► about me can she just fill out this form for me and submitted for me I can do it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4178">TS</a>]
01:09:44 ◼ ► I'm not incapable of writing my name in block capitals in these boxes but i just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4184">TS</a>]
01:09:50 ◼ ► i wouldn't do it for fun and so this is work and I have a number which is OK [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4190">TS</a>]
01:09:55 ◼ ► does it make sense for me to pay my personal assistant to do this if the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4195">TS</a>]
01:09:59 ◼ ► answer is yes like yes I would love to do this and any any time I can I can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4199">TS</a>]
01:10:03 ◼ ► come up with a little solution like that I guess this makes this makes very good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4203">TS</a>]
01:10:09 ◼ ► the flip side of this is of course that over the past two years this also means [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4209">TS</a>]
01:10:13 ◼ ► that I have been getting a lot more business expenses than I ever used to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4213">TS</a>]
01:10:17 ◼ ► have a used to feel like oh boy this business is great it has no expenses and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4217">TS</a>]
01:10:21 ◼ ► now it's like to have a lot of business expenses that I didn't used to have but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4221">TS</a>]
01:10:25 ◼ ► the tradeoff is is definitely worth it but it is interesting to see that this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4225">TS</a>]
01:10:30 ◼ ► has caused a a personality shift that I notice that trying to always think in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4230">TS</a>]
01:10:39 ◼ ► has really really driven down my patients for certain kinds of activities [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4239">TS</a>]
01:10:44 ◼ ► with god can I have someone do this I really hope the answer is yes we can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4244">TS</a>]
01:10:49 ◼ ► actually when you get too far into it can actually be detrimental thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4249">TS</a>]
01:10:53 ◼ ► because you you may be spent more money than you need to because you know how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4253">TS</a>]
01:10:57 ◼ ► such a low tolerance for work you don't want to do anything today someone yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4257">TS</a>]
01:11:05 ◼ ► but this but this is where the spreadsheet in the numbers act as the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4265">TS</a>]
01:11:08 ◼ ► sanity check where does this not make sense what should you do and what should [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4268">TS</a>]
01:11:12 ◼ ► you not do you have to have it some kind of anchoring reality I really do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4272">TS</a>]
01:11:17 ◼ ► recommend anybody out there who is running their own business to do the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4277">TS</a>]
01:11:23 ◼ ► actual calculations of what your time is worth per hour and the really they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4283">TS</a>]
01:11:27 ◼ ► really key feature here is to not lie to yourself about how much time you spend [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4287">TS</a>]
01:11:34 ◼ ► on things so if you're sitting at home all day and you feel like oh I had a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4294">TS</a>]
01:11:39 ◼ ► whole work day you don't just get to divide oh how much money I earn today [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4299">TS</a>]
01:11:43 ◼ ► divided by the eight hours I spent in the office like this is one of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4303">TS</a>]
01:11:47 ◼ ► reasons why I use the timers is I am really really strict about was this a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4307">TS</a>]
01:11:55 ◼ ► solid 40 minutes of writing if it wasn't a solid 40 minutes of writing it doesn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4315">TS</a>]
01:12:01 ◼ ► count so I i really do keep a very very accurate account of this stuff and if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4321">TS</a>]
01:12:08 ◼ ► you do that it is really eye-opening like I have convinced a few people to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4328">TS</a>]
01:12:12 ◼ ► try this and once they do just a little bit of tracking the time and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4332">TS</a>]
01:12:17 ◼ ► working out their hourly rates it does really change how they think about their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4337">TS</a>]
01:12:20 ◼ ► business and how they're spending their time so the obvious thing he'll like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4340">TS</a>]
01:12:24 ◼ ► maybe the elephant in the room in looking at this scenario is production [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4344">TS</a>]
01:12:28 ◼ ► so we're talking about the way to maximize money and part of the thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4348">TS</a>]
01:12:32 ◼ ► we're talking about is take things away from us so we can make more stuff so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4352">TS</a>]
01:12:38 ◼ ► what if you had people making stuff for you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4358">TS</a>]
01:12:42 ◼ ► so I do some of this I'm not on every show and relay this is your specialty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4362">TS</a>]
01:12:48 ◼ ► Mike yeah so we have currently like 20 28 posts between them pretty use 18 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4368">TS</a>]
01:13:01 ◼ ► shows I'm on nine of them a lot of there is a need is only like six or so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4381">TS</a>]
01:13:07 ◼ ► frequent shows the hawk yeah but over time you are on a decreasing percentage [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4387">TS</a>]
01:13:15 ◼ ► of the total number of shows that really produces exactly so that is the idea of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4395">TS</a>]
01:13:21 ◼ ► me bringing in people because every show producers money for the business of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4401">TS</a>]
01:13:25 ◼ ► which I as a business owner have some of that money [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4405">TS</a>]

01:13:42 ◼ ► other part of this whole thing and overtime I'm trying to maybe pull back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4422">TS</a>]
01:13:48 ◼ ► the amount I do to push forward more people to do that because facilitator of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4428">TS</a>]
01:13:54 ◼ ► other people's work that day that is how in the long term [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4434">TS</a>]
01:13:58 ◼ ► my business seats have a host of people that are happy to work with me and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4438">TS</a>]

01:14:09 ◼ ► that push us to forward and to be clear the whole proposition from relay is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4449">TS</a>]
01:14:15 ◼ ► reason why I agreed to do this podcast is a big part of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4455">TS</a>]
01:14:19 ◼ ► his I can do this show but only if I don't have to worry about details [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4459">TS</a>]
01:14:25 ◼ ► XY and Z like with the hello Internet podcast I'm in charge of all of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4465">TS</a>]
01:14:30 ◼ ► background logistics and all of the editing with the exception of ad sales [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4470">TS</a>]
01:14:35 ◼ ► work with someone for that but I just knew I could not possibly replicate all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4475">TS</a>]
01:14:42 ◼ ► of that for a second podcast it would just be far too much and so yes that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4482">TS</a>]
01:14:45 ◼ ► why it's like okay as really as a company takes a portion of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4485">TS</a>]
01:14:48 ◼ ► advertising revenue for the show but I was very happy to sign up for that if it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4488">TS</a>]
01:14:54 ◼ ► oh I don't have to upload the show's to the website I don't have to put the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4494">TS</a>]
01:14:59 ◼ ► Sooners together is like this is what we worked out you and I and it is a good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4499">TS</a>]
01:15:03 ◼ ► example of the same kind of thing like having someone else do something and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4503">TS</a>]
01:15:08 ◼ ► being more than happy to help pay for that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4508">TS</a>]
01:15:11 ◼ ► yeah let's take a quick sidebars and I'll tell their story to say if we keep [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4511">TS</a>]
01:15:15 ◼ ► it in but will mean you were talking about the split between the two of us as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4515">TS</a>]
01:15:21 ◼ ► hosts of the like the remaining revenue I was pushing to give you more of it but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4521">TS</a>]
01:15:27 ◼ ► you were pushing to give me what I was trying to give you a better split [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4527">TS</a>]
01:15:33 ◼ ► because I i as a person looking for talent wanted to try and make the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4533">TS</a>]
01:15:41 ◼ ► sweetest deal possible for you right that was my thinking so I wore offer you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4541">TS</a>]

01:16:03 ◼ ► very fair deal but that that resulted in me happily agreed to do things like all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4563">TS</a>]
01:16:08 ◼ ► of the book and the editing and that's exactly that's that's the both sides of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4568">TS</a>]
01:16:12 ◼ ► this coming into play which is quite interesting in the way that we are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4572">TS</a>]
01:16:15 ◼ ► coming to the arrangement we did you know without a doubt I was convincing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4575">TS</a>]
01:16:20 ◼ ► you to take a larger portion of the show and also to do more of the things like I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4580">TS</a>]
01:16:27 ◼ ► wanted you to be more invested in the show than the original deal was going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4587">TS</a>]
01:16:32 ◼ ► be and that that's exactly part of it like out in some way I am hiring relay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4592">TS</a>]

01:18:58 ◼ ► intentionally keep what I'm doing very very small scale and in the U-two world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4738">TS</a>]
01:19:05 ◼ ► it's a bit weird like it's actually quite easy to end up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4745">TS</a>]

01:19:31 ◼ ► them is also assisting with things so for me it's it's just me because that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4771">TS</a>]
01:19:35 ◼ ► a a personality difference but it does mean that I am the bottleneck for just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4775">TS</a>]
01:19:42 ◼ ► about everything like if i'm having a look if it's taken me a long time to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4782">TS</a>]

01:20:01 ◼ ► time thinking about maximizing output per hour I think that is really my focus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4801">TS</a>]
01:20:10 ◼ ► because I am aware that I am always going to be the one who limits the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4810">TS</a>]
01:20:15 ◼ ► amount of things that I produce because I only have so much time that I'm going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4815">TS</a>]
01:20:20 ◼ ► to dedicate to work and so I have to get the most out of that time that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4820">TS</a>]

01:20:33 ◼ ► engagements in awhile and one of the reasons I haven't done that is because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4833">TS</a>]
01:20:37 ◼ ► when I'm invited to do a presentation somewhere like there's a conference and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4837">TS</a>]

01:20:48 ◼ ► bottleneck in my own business when I get an invitation like that I on an actual [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4848">TS</a>]
01:20:54 ◼ ► spreadsheet do a literal opportunity cost calculation for I know what my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4854">TS</a>]
01:21:02 ◼ ► saves video production time is worth per hour and then I do an estimate of how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4862">TS</a>]
01:21:08 ◼ ► many work hours would I lose going to this conference and this is what I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4868">TS</a>]
01:21:14 ◼ ► by it's very important to know your value per hour per project and so I spec [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4874">TS</a>]
01:21:23 ◼ ► well I have to do the opportunity cost for the travel days I have to do the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4883">TS</a>]
01:21:29 ◼ ► opportunity cost for preparing for the trip for preparing for the presentation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4889">TS</a>]
01:21:34 ◼ ► and I also have to do the opportunity cost for coming back because it's very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4894">TS</a>]
01:21:39 ◼ ► easy to think of a conference as and conference organizers like to think of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4899">TS</a>]
01:21:43 ◼ ► oh we just want you to come and give a one hour presentation like okay yes but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4903">TS</a>]
01:21:49 ◼ ► from my perspective if you want me to give a one hour presentation in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4909">TS</a>]
01:21:53 ◼ ► California that does not subtract one hour of scriptwriting time from my work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4913">TS</a>]
01:21:59 ◼ ► schedule so I do that opportunity cost of at a bare minimum like how much in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4919">TS</a>]
01:22:05 ◼ ► theory would I be losing out by doing this conference and then I have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4925">TS</a>]
01:22:11 ◼ ► figure well if I'm going to do this I don't just want to break even like this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4931">TS</a>]
01:22:14 ◼ ► has to be in actually profitable engagement for me and so I have to put [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4934">TS</a>]
01:22:17 ◼ ► some kind of markup on that and then the answer to all of this is the amount of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4937">TS</a>]
01:22:23 ◼ ► working time that I would lose by going to a conference was never ever is going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4943">TS</a>]

01:22:42 ◼ ► of MI willing to delay releasing a video for a conference and the answer to that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4962">TS</a>]
01:22:51 ◼ ► question is almost always know what it is because I am the only person in my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4971">TS</a>]
01:22:57 ◼ ► business and because you have a business where you have multiple people working [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/4977">TS</a>]

01:28:38 ◼ ► partly due to the fact that I'm having some pretty worrying RSI which we will [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5318">TS</a>]
01:28:44 ◼ ► talk about on later so don't talk about yeah yeah we should talk about that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5324">TS</a>]
01:28:48 ◼ ► need to get a handle of what's going on in my life before a little talk about it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5328">TS</a>]
01:28:54 ◼ ► so we're thinking about you know basically told me that if I lose the use [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5334">TS</a>]
01:29:01 ◼ ► risk and that's we have a scenario that we have an editor so we're starting to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5341">TS</a>]
01:29:06 ◼ ► more seriously think about what that would look like to have somebody to take [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5346">TS</a>]
01:29:11 ◼ ► care of a lot of stuff for us now you could you could have somebody do the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5351">TS</a>]
01:29:17 ◼ ► animation for you and it probably wouldn't make too much of a difference [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5357">TS</a>]
01:29:23 ◼ ► presentation of your videos if you think about it objectively because the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5363">TS</a>]
01:29:28 ◼ ► goes in the writing and then you could storyboard video and then hand over the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5368">TS</a>]
01:29:34 ◼ ► animation somebody else whether you want to do this could mean I could do it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5374">TS</a>]
01:29:43 ◼ ► because obviously this is how a company like Pixar works they don't they don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5383">TS</a>]
01:29:48 ◼ ► have one dude rights and animate Incredibles has not like that's not how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5388">TS</a>]
01:29:54 ◼ ► that movie comes together obviously obvious either way the team could work I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5394">TS</a>]
01:30:00 ◼ ► involved in having a larger structure like that I do think the animation style [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5400">TS</a>]
01:30:06 ◼ ► would have to change a little bit but my always have a hard time communicating [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5406">TS</a>]
01:30:11 ◼ ► this but my problem is that by the time I have finished writing the script I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5411">TS</a>]
01:30:16 ◼ ► know exactly how I want animations to go and I'm also I'm off and writing the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5416">TS</a>]
01:30:21 ◼ ► script so that the animation lines up in a particular way and the result is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5421">TS</a>]
01:30:27 ◼ ► trying to communicate this to someone is a lot of overhead of exactly how I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5427">TS</a>]
01:30:33 ◼ ► wanted to be now now could I get someone else to do it of course but if you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5433">TS</a>]
01:30:40 ◼ ► someone else working creatively I think it's a lot better if you can give them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5440">TS</a>]
01:30:45 ◼ ► some creative control than is as an example here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5445">TS</a>]
01:30:49 ◼ ► das ki who I work with who does the hello Internet animated videos he has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5449">TS</a>]
01:30:56 ◼ ► total artistic control over those things that we do that together in the sense [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5456">TS</a>]
01:31:02 ◼ ► that he selects audio clips I approve of the audio clips he sends me a draft and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5462">TS</a>]
01:31:07 ◼ ► I approve or make some feedback on the draft and then he makes it but it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5467">TS</a>]
01:31:10 ◼ ► almost entirely under his control of his discretion how he wants those things to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5470">TS</a>]
01:31:14 ◼ ► look and I have an element of creative control over the show was yeah yeah yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5474">TS</a>]
01:31:20 ◼ ► without a doubt this is it's a similar thing like I i allow you allow you I the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5480">TS</a>]
01:31:29 ◼ ► right in which are you is a bit different from video but it's definitely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5489">TS</a>]
01:31:35 ◼ ► the case that yes there is a certain amount of artistic pneus to how are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5495">TS</a>]
01:31:39 ◼ ► things that it how it is but together and so that's a that's a similar things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5499">TS</a>]
01:31:43 ◼ ► so if I were to ever have someone else anime one of my videos I would have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5503">TS</a>]
01:31:52 ◼ ► write the script differently from the perspective of someone else is going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5512">TS</a>]
01:31:56 ◼ ► enemy which would change the way I would phrase things in some points and I would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5516">TS</a>]
01:32:00 ◼ ► also want to give that person much more creative control over what happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5520">TS</a>]
01:32:04 ◼ ► because that's the only way I could be happy about it I couldn't be happier [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5524">TS</a>]
01:32:09 ◼ ► ok I this is exactly what I want and if it's not exactly what I want then it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5529">TS</a>]
01:32:13 ◼ ► terrible so I I would have to change the structure of the way that I do things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5533">TS</a>]
01:32:17 ◼ ► and i also think I would have to really be working with someone who was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5537">TS</a>]
01:32:20 ◼ ► full-time animator and then that goes back to the very question of is that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5540">TS</a>]
01:32:24 ◼ ► kind of structure that i want for my business and the answer is No [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5544">TS</a>]
01:32:30 ◼ ► at this stage like a really just I don't like the idea of other people being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5550">TS</a>]
01:32:34 ◼ ► dependent upon me for their living this is the issue of have been thinking about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5554">TS</a>]
01:32:38 ◼ ► it is that with the way that I currently do things I want it picked up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5558">TS</a>]
01:32:42 ◼ ► immediately and that usually means that that person needs to have nothing else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5562">TS</a>]
01:32:47 ◼ ► that they do exactly all I need to change the way that I think about things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5567">TS</a>]
01:32:51 ◼ ► ya know there's a huge advantage to obviously having someone around to help [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5571">TS</a>]
01:32:56 ◼ ► our full-time what this whole conversation is reminding me of is again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5576">TS</a>]
01:33:02 ◼ ► going back to my days as a teacher and perhaps the first exposure I ever had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5582">TS</a>]
01:33:08 ◼ ► with the idea of having someone help you with work now in the school where I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5588">TS</a>]
01:33:15 ◼ ► first worked there was a photocopy lady and she was in charge of the photocopy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5595">TS</a>]
01:33:22 ◼ ► machine and so the idea was if you had some worksheets you would take one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5602">TS</a>]
01:33:29 ◼ ► those worksheets you quickly fill out a little forum about how many copies you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5609">TS</a>]
01:33:32 ◼ ► need and who you are of course she would know where to deliver the photocopies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5612">TS</a>]
01:33:36 ◼ ► and put it in in basket for her and she would make little photocopies for you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5616">TS</a>]
01:33:41 ◼ ► and I resisted so hard using the photocopy laity for me be the first year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5621">TS</a>]
01:33:50 ◼ ► year and a half of being a teacher because I always thought I can make [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5630">TS</a>]
01:33:54 ◼ ► photocopies this isn't hard this is an easy thing to do and I'm perfectly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5634">TS</a>]
01:34:00 ◼ ► capable of doing it why don't I just make the photocopies but then I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5640">TS</a>]
01:34:07 ◼ ► eventually started using the photocopy lady and when you do that you realize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5647">TS</a>]
01:34:16 ◼ ► that in order to be able to fully take advantage of someone helping you you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5656">TS</a>]
01:34:23 ◼ ► you actually need to be more organized in a way so what this means is if if I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5663">TS</a>]
01:34:29 ◼ ► going to have someone make the photocopies for my lesson that needs to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5669">TS</a>]
01:34:33 ◼ ► be in her inbox at least a day before the lesson is actually going to happen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5673">TS</a>]
01:34:38 ◼ ► and so that takes away the option of waiting until the last minute to prepare [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5678">TS</a>]
01:34:44 ◼ ► a lesson and doing the photocopies of the last moment you have to be more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5684">TS</a>]
01:34:50 ◼ ► organized in some ways to take advantage of other people helping you and so when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5690">TS</a>]
01:34:57 ◼ ► I started to learn to use the photocopy led it meant that I had to be preparing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5697">TS</a>]
01:35:07 ◼ ► but the payoff of that was definitely worth it because one of the other things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5707">TS</a>]
01:35:14 ◼ ► that I find with having people help you with things is unexpected snags can just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5714">TS</a>]
01:35:19 ◼ ► derail your whole day and so you know what the photocopier it doesn't always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5719">TS</a>]
01:35:24 ◼ ► work or there's a jam and then suddenly you're doing something at the last [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5724">TS</a>]
01:35:28 ◼ ► minute and now you're trying to fix a paper jam in the photocopier or the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5728">TS</a>]
01:35:33 ◼ ► photocopy yours out of paper and so now you need to go to the stock room to get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5733">TS</a>]
01:35:37 ◼ ► whereas if you doing things more in advance all of these problems just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5737">TS</a>]
01:35:41 ◼ ► disappear but they just they just go away and so I'm thinking with you for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5741">TS</a>]
01:35:48 ◼ ► example and talking about bringing on an editor possibly for the podcasts this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5748">TS</a>]
01:35:55 ◼ ► means that you need to change some aspects of your business [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5755">TS</a>]
01:35:58 ◼ ► about what is the turnaround time on on podcast it means if you're going to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5758">TS</a>]
01:36:04 ◼ ► someone do this you can't have a really rapid turnaround it may mean that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5764">TS</a>]
01:36:09 ◼ ► there's going to be a multiplication of the number of things that you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5769">TS</a>]
01:36:12 ◼ ► produce or a reduction in the number of hours that you are working both of which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5772">TS</a>]
01:36:17 ◼ ► are good but it does fundamentally change some of the things that happened [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5777">TS</a>]
01:36:22 ◼ ► in your business and in my own analogy here with my own life and without a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5782">TS</a>]
01:36:27 ◼ ► meeting like yes if I did bring on an animator maybe I could produce more but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5787">TS</a>]
01:36:33 ◼ ► it would dramatically increase the cycle time and quite frankly I like being able [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5793">TS</a>]
01:36:40 ◼ ► to finish the script and then have the video up relatively fast I'm just going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5800">TS</a>]
01:36:46 ◼ ► to grind through a few days of animating and getting it done that's something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5806">TS</a>]
01:36:50 ◼ ► that I actually don't want to change like I don't want the the tradeoffs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5810">TS</a>]
01:36:54 ◼ ► involved there but anyway it's it's just this stuff is just very very connected [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5814">TS</a>]
01:37:02 ◼ ► with who you are and and how you run your business but to get back to your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5822">TS</a>]

01:37:12 ◼ ► the groundwork I feel like that is not necessarily the case [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5832">TS</a>]
01:37:16 ◼ ► I think that in my mind I am passing off to her a lot of what I think of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5836">TS</a>]
01:37:20 ◼ ► administra- to work it's it's administered yeah there you go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5840">TS</a>]
01:37:26 ◼ ► some of it is surprisingly difficult or complicated and as an example a little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5846">TS</a>]
01:37:35 ◼ ► while ago she was on the phone with the tax the business sub Department of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5855">TS</a>]

01:38:02 ◼ ► correctly and forms that need to be filled out but it is something that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5882">TS</a>]
01:38:07 ◼ ► would just like I don't think I could bring myself to be on the phone and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/5887">TS</a>]

01:41:38 ◼ ► advise that before somebody goes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6098">TS</a>]
01:41:40 ◼ ► down a route like this they need to understand the value of their Alice yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6100">TS</a>]
01:41:44 ◼ ► you cannot make this decision unless you have a very good sense of what your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6104">TS</a>]
01:41:50 ◼ ► hourly work is because really you need to be paying less than that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6110">TS</a>]
01:41:56 ◼ ► yeah and and you know when I say this is not a place to cheap out like some some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6116">TS</a>]
01:42:00 ◼ ► of the the really high end of this there is this is a fascinating world but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6120">TS</a>]
01:42:05 ◼ ► there's a whole world of executive assistants and super high-end executive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6125">TS</a>]
01:42:11 ◼ ► assistant placement services and the numbers that some of those companies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6131">TS</a>]
01:42:18 ◼ ► companies charge are just crazy you cannot believe how much the apex of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6138">TS</a>]
01:42:26 ◼ ► apex of personal assistants can earn but the thing is they are working for people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6146">TS</a>]
01:42:32 ◼ ► like Bill Gates when I see him as well as we can really perceive the amount of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6152">TS</a>]
01:42:38 ◼ ► money would pay because we also can't perceive just the level of the work that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6158">TS</a>]
01:42:44 ◼ ► yeah I imagine when you get up to that level so you just don't need to worry [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6164">TS</a>]
01:42:48 ◼ ► about anything anymore because you're a system as if I can find for the show but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6168">TS</a>]
01:42:53 ◼ ► there was an article that I was reading which was talking about some of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6173">TS</a>]
01:42:56 ◼ ► highest tier executive assistants and one of the reasons why there was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6176">TS</a>]
01:43:00 ◼ ► executive assistants are able to charge such high rates is that those assistance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6180">TS</a>]
01:43:06 ◼ ► they use a networking service that puts them in contact with the other executive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6186">TS</a>]
01:43:13 ◼ ► assistants a very high level people so that makes so much sense right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6193">TS</a>]
01:43:19 ◼ ► so they are acting as a conduit across very high level social and political [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6199">TS</a>]
01:43:28 ◼ ► circles yeah the way they get things done is by talking to each other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6208">TS</a>]
01:43:33 ◼ ► exactly you're really buying into this whole network of you know what you get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6213">TS</a>]
01:43:40 ◼ ► is access to everyone right and so it's it's a case of you can say someone like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6220">TS</a>]
01:43:45 ◼ ► a very high level business executive needs to get the chancellor of some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6225">TS</a>]
01:43:53 ◼ ► right and they they they can just pass it off to their assistant and say you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6233">TS</a>]
01:43:58 ◼ ► need to make a meeting happened with acts and that assistant can charge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6238">TS</a>]
01:44:01 ◼ ► that's crazy high rates because they are in contact with a whole network of other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6241">TS</a>]
01:44:06 ◼ ► assistance at a very high level and they can try to work that out amongst [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6246">TS</a>]
01:44:09 ◼ ► themselves to see if they can make this happen but I I bring this up because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6249">TS</a>]
01:44:14 ◼ ► again it's just the value of someone like Bill Gates Richard Branson Elon [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6254">TS</a>]
01:44:23 ◼ ► outwardly value generation from them is just crazy and so that's why they can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6263">TS</a>]
01:44:31 ◼ ► afford to have very high level very expensive people helping them out but if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6271">TS</a>]
01:44:38 ◼ ► you'd like we are not Elon Musk you like we're not in that position but you still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6278">TS</a>]
01:44:44 ◼ ► need to have an understanding of where you are are in this hierarchy of people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6284">TS</a>]
01:44:50 ◼ ► who you can have assist you and my advice is to probably go higher than you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6290">TS</a>]
01:44:56 ◼ ► think you should as long as it is lower than like your hourly value so go back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6296">TS</a>]
01:45:03 ◼ ► to the trust thing so you found the gun to service you found the person and you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6303">TS</a>]
01:45:08 ◼ ► been working with time eventually I see you start them off of smaller tasks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6308">TS</a>]
01:45:15 ◼ ► right just to test to see if there are fifty oh yeah like what you would you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6315">TS</a>]
01:45:21 ◼ ► give to someone to begin on this path because you can't just be like he's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6321">TS</a>]
01:45:24 ◼ ► pastor to my email can go crazy yeah there are there are definitely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6324">TS</a>]
01:45:29 ◼ ► boundaries which I would not cross again talking about some of you two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6329">TS</a>]
01:45:35 ◼ ► presentations from before the way the whole YouTube system works that you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6335">TS</a>]
01:45:39 ◼ ► a password that allows you to access everything just like that the video [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6339">TS</a>]
01:45:43 ◼ ► upload also all the emails absolutely everything that's a that's the kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6343">TS</a>]
01:45:47 ◼ ► very high level thing which I wouldn't trust anybody in the world with just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6347">TS</a>]
01:45:51 ◼ ► because it's so it's like the beating heart of my business and if anything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6351">TS</a>]
01:45:54 ◼ ► goes wrong I want to be the one who messed it up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6354">TS</a>]
01:45:57 ◼ ► not somebody like that isn't I think you're stupid into something wrong the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6357">TS</a>]
01:46:04 ◼ ► had an active you did something by accident exam could have a catastrophic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6364">TS</a>]
01:46:08 ◼ ► effect on everything exactly I give you an example of a company that does things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6368">TS</a>]
01:46:14 ◼ ► well that I wish more companies would follow but MailChimp has a sub-account [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6374">TS</a>]
01:46:20 ◼ ► level where you can give someone access to setting up something in MailChimp for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6380">TS</a>]
01:46:25 ◼ ► you but they can't have the authority to press the button to send they can just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6385">TS</a>]
01:46:30 ◼ ► set it up so that you have the authority to review it and then only you can press [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6390">TS</a>]
01:46:35 ◼ ► the send button do you think you should have this for some people they must [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6395">TS</a>]
01:46:39 ◼ ► consider such big companies and organizations that use YouTube account [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6399">TS</a>]
01:46:45 ◼ ► sp1 parser to everybody shares I wonder if this is something that has changed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6405">TS</a>]
01:46:51 ◼ ► but I can say for a fact as of a few years ago they didn't have anything like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6411">TS</a>]
01:46:59 ◼ ► this because I knew of gigantic companies that just had some dude who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6419">TS</a>]
01:47:05 ◼ ► has the password to their account and has access to everything I just did a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6425">TS</a>]
01:47:09 ◼ ► Google search YouTube for teams and there's nothing I cannot believe that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6429">TS</a>]
01:47:16 ◼ ► yeah I think they're bringing on a few tools now like I think there's a little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6436">TS</a>]
01:47:20 ◼ ► bit more of this with with some of the Google+ integration but is not enough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6440">TS</a>]
01:47:24 ◼ ► and it's not adequate so I I bring this up simply because there's a certain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6444">TS</a>]
01:47:28 ◼ ► amount of what I might call structural trust in that there are ways that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6448">TS</a>]
01:47:33 ◼ ► can have someone help you because limitations are built into the system [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6453">TS</a>]
01:47:39 ◼ ► like there is trust structurally there it doesn't depend on you actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6459">TS</a>]
01:47:44 ◼ ► trusting you human being but ideally you want someone that you actually can trust [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6464">TS</a>]
01:47:49 ◼ ► and so yeah that's something you have to build up over time and what I used as my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6469">TS</a>]
01:47:53 ◼ ► initial tests with the personal assistant that I was trying some of whom [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6473">TS</a>]
01:47:58 ◼ ► worked out obviously many of whom didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6478">TS</a>]
01:48:01 ◼ ► was I would send a scripts that I had marked up by hand to have corrections [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6481">TS</a>]
01:48:10 ◼ ► made and so I think if if you if you take a look at that that iteration blog [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6490">TS</a>]
01:48:17 ◼ ► post I wrote a while back I have an example of some scripts that would mark [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6497">TS</a>]
01:48:20 ◼ ► up my hands and I would pass that off to someone and say I need these corrections [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6500">TS</a>]
01:48:26 ◼ ► made on this text file but here's the thing I write all of my text files in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6506">TS</a>]
01:48:34 ◼ ► markdown which is a very lightweight markup language that you can mark out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6514">TS</a>]
01:48:39 ◼ ► things like italics or a link or bold it's not really complicated but you just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6519">TS</a>]
01:48:46 ◼ ► need to know a couple of things and so as this first test project when I would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6526">TS</a>]
01:48:52 ◼ ► say to the person is here is my original text file written work down here is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6532">TS</a>]
01:48:57 ◼ ► PDF of the changes that I want made which are written in my abysmal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6537">TS</a>]
01:49:02 ◼ ► handwriting this document is written in markdown you need to go look up the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6542">TS</a>]
01:49:10 ◼ ► syntax and just make sure that any of the changes are compatible with marked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6550">TS</a>]
01:49:16 ◼ ► down to test that I think it's an excellent test because I'm trying to see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6556">TS</a>]
01:49:23 ◼ ► if they can figure out something it's not complicated but it's just something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6563">TS</a>]
01:49:28 ◼ ► that almost nobody would have run across before under normal circumstances yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6568">TS</a>]
01:49:32 ◼ ► it's ever so slightly nerdy the idea of a markup language and then also I know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6572">TS</a>]
01:49:40 ◼ ► very well exactly how all of those corrections are supposed to be made and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6580">TS</a>]
01:49:46 ◼ ► I want to make sure that someone reading through what I have written can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6586">TS</a>]
01:49:51 ◼ ► understand and make all of the corrections in the way that I want done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6591">TS</a>]
01:49:54 ◼ ► and I would get back some abysmal things I mean a couple people just right out of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6594">TS</a>]
01:50:00 ◼ ► the gate it was just know when I get back a word document right where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6600">TS</a>]
01:50:05 ◼ ► someone's copied and pasted the text file into a Word document and send it to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6605">TS</a>]
01:50:09 ◼ ► me I am part of the original instructions is you are modifying this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6609">TS</a>]
01:50:15 ◼ ► like I'm not I don't want to different document back I want this thing back so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6615">TS</a>]
01:50:20 ◼ ► there's a lot of a lot of stuff like this you'd be surprised when you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6620">TS</a>]
01:50:23 ◼ ► trying to work with someone like communication difficulties of the little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6623">TS</a>]
01:50:26 ◼ ► ways that things can go wrong that you would never expect that was always my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6626">TS</a>]
01:50:30 ◼ ► first test and some people just failed immediately but from there like if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6630">TS</a>]
01:50:35 ◼ ► someone can do that then you can start working up to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6635">TS</a>]
01:50:38 ◼ ► to bigger things but I did notice with a few of the first assistance that I work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6638">TS</a>]
01:50:41 ◼ ► with they were ok it is very low-level tasks but I found myself not wanting to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6641">TS</a>]
01:50:49 ◼ ► use them for higher level tasks and then that was a sign of like you know what I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6649">TS</a>]
01:50:54 ◼ ► don't want to work with this person and an example of a higher level task is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6654">TS</a>]
01:50:59 ◼ ► when someone is representing me to somebody else so I don't we have we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6659">TS</a>]
01:51:05 ◼ ► discussed at meetings and remember discuss meeting on the podcast not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6665">TS</a>]
01:51:09 ◼ ► really ok so as an example of a higher level task is like easily have my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6669">TS</a>]
01:51:14 ◼ ► personal assistant set up a meeting for me with someone else now again this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6674">TS</a>]
01:51:20 ◼ ► something I would totally be capable of doing on my own but it's nice to be able [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6680">TS</a>]
01:51:25 ◼ ► to have somebody else workouts a time zones or available times but that's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6685">TS</a>]
01:51:31 ◼ ► higher level task because not only is the person just doing that thing but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6691">TS</a>]
01:51:35 ◼ ► also want them to be representing me well with third party and so like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6695">TS</a>]
01:51:42 ◼ ► recently my personal assistants set up a meeting with a domain experts for a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6702">TS</a>]
01:51:47 ◼ ► future project and I want to be able to know and be able to rely on that just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6707">TS</a>]
01:51:53 ◼ ► going smoothly and that the higher level task was harder to defined what how is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6713">TS</a>]
01:51:58 ◼ ► it to be nicely interacting with someone else like you just you can't write that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6718">TS</a>]
01:52:02 ◼ ► down in words as a series of instructions but you need to be able to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6722">TS</a>]
01:52:05 ◼ ► trust that someone can do that how do you get to the point when you can say to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6725">TS</a>]
01:52:17 ◼ ► email here is the most important communication method in my business [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6737">TS</a>]
01:52:23 ◼ ► you now have access to what comes in you could sense something out you see stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6743">TS</a>]
01:52:30 ◼ ► so I don't let other people see how do you get to that point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6750">TS</a>]
01:52:37 ◼ ► well for me having a one-person business I don't think I ever really need to get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6757">TS</a>]
01:52:48 ◼ ► to the point where someone else is controlling directly all of the email [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6768">TS</a>]
01:52:54 ◼ ► account that I use a bit like that is that is just like the YouTube password [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6774">TS</a>]
01:52:59 ◼ ► is a beating heart of the system and so the the way that I i worked things out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6779">TS</a>]
01:53:05 ◼ ► with my assistant is that I have a bunch of rules that forwards stuff to her that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6785">TS</a>]
01:53:10 ◼ ► comes through my account and then it filters that stuff out of my view so I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6790">TS</a>]
01:53:15 ◼ ► don't see it but this is this is a case of what I mean by structural trust like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6795">TS</a>]
01:53:21 ◼ ► certain messages go to her and she is able to reply to them but that's very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6801">TS</a>]
01:53:27 ◼ ► different from saying handing over the keys to my primary email account but no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6807">TS</a>]
01:53:33 ◼ ► system is perfect and there are gonna be things that she will see that you would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6813">TS</a>]
01:53:37 ◼ ► maybe prefer that she did eventually over time that happened already so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6817">TS</a>]
01:53:41 ◼ ► that's where the human trust comes in so yeah so that definitely requires a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6821">TS</a>]
01:53:48 ◼ ► certain amount of amount of trust and that kind of thing only comes from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6828">TS</a>]
01:53:52 ◼ ► working with someone over a long period of time there's no test that you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6832">TS</a>]
01:53:58 ◼ ► necessarily do with that so it's all about having having increase the number [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6838">TS</a>]
01:54:03 ◼ ► of things that you are willing to rely on someone for and that they have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6843">TS</a>]
01:54:07 ◼ ► successfully helped you out with in the past and that continuing onward overtime [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6847">TS</a>]
01:54:13 ◼ ► isn't there is no way around it that's that's the only way to have it work but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6853">TS</a>]
01:54:16 ◼ ► I mention that thing about being a single person business before because at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+EtBla47NM/6856">TS</a>]
