363 - Understanding Inventory at Home 27.11.2020

This episode, Understanding Inventory at Home, is directly related to Episodes 361 and 362 on the different kinds of work. I am sharing some of my thoughts about analyzing how we use the principles we use to run a business and relate them to how we run our households. I think this is super useful because it allows us to take the emotion out of our thinking, and to realize that there is work to be...

362 - The 4 Kinds of Work Part 2 20.11.2020

361 - The 4 Kinds of Work - Part 1 13.11.2020

I have recently been enjoying parable based books to learn new things and to gain confidence that my own analysis and plans are "right" in the world of business. Reading a fictionalized version of important information helps me to apply learning and see nuances rather than just read dry facts. Recently, I listened to The Phoenix Project by Gene Kim and learned how they describe four different kind...
