Project Management System: New Set-Up

The On Demand Global Workforce - oDesk
I lost my way! I lost my will!

In the last several months I totally lost my focus in my outsourcing and in my systems. Some of them broke and I did not rebuild them. Some of them simply needed to be updated and others needed to be trashed because they were not producing results.

So here I am today… rereading Source Control by David Walsh. I am starting from scratch again in a sense.

I know that sounds terrible, but it is a lesson I needed to learn.

I decided to scrap the opengoo project management system. Although it was free and pretty good, I have found a couple more that are even better.

4HWW Success Story

by teevee

What can I say about this video that doesn’t become evident as soon as you view it.

One of the interesting things that he does that I will need to do is to travel to other countries and get social jobs. He gets simple jobs to just meet people and learn a new skill.

I find that to be extremely simple and fun! What better way to enjoy the people and their culture than to serve them  and learn from them.

Thank you to @josh_crocker for sharing this on his blog. I still sometimes lose my focus and need to be reminded why we do what we do.

I remember why do we dare dream that we can actually enjoy life and give back to the world.

Is the 4HWW a Myth?

Super powered growth

Yes it is. Tim Ferris doesn’t even work 4 hours. Hell, even John Jonas markets his material by saying he works 17 hours.
I find that hard to believe given the work he does and the products he has on the market. However, I believe that both of them do it by choice. They both have [...]

The 4-Hour Work Week

The 4-Hour Work Week
It was December of 2007. My good friend insists that I read this book named “The 4 Hour Work Week” written by Tim Ferris.
Brad insisted that I pick it up and read it immediately. I obliged and even bought a copy that night. Needless to say I devoured it. Apparently I wasn’t [...]
