DIY

What is romantic about doing it yourself? Is it the pride of completion? Is it all the money saved? Is it because our version is better than the hired version? 

Hiring out tasks might backfire...so we think… “I’ll just do it myself.” 

It’s more dependable, it’s more predictable and I know it will be done right. If time is more valuable than money is the DIY approach the wise choice? 

Perhaps the real work is getting better at picking helpers. Picking the wrong helpers is expensive. Picking a helper to get on your bus, asking them to sit in a certain seat and expecting top performance takes experience. 

Who’s fault is it when it doesn’t work? The picker or the helper? 

It’s worth developing a good picker and trusting whom you’ve picked to advance the mission.
