One Thing Everybody Does Wrong

You might be in the middle of creating the worst paid job for yourself

Without even noticing it

Let's just think about this for a minute, you may disagree after reading.

👇👇 CHRISTMAS THREAD 👇👇
Let's assume the following for a moment:

Anything that can be outsourced is employee-level work

Would you agree with this?

If so, then entrepreneurs should focus on the things that cannot be outsourced

⏬
But what are those things?

If you think of a business as a machine, with individual talent each doing its part, then someone needs to make sure everything works well together.

Everybody needs to work towards a common goal.

And identify with the mission.

⏬
It is the entrepreneur who comes up with the vision - and has to make sure everyone works towards that goal.

But let's not confuse this with management & delegation.

A manager isn't an entrepreneur, either. It might not be "manual labor" but it's an employee regardless.

⏬
Can you feel how I'm grasping for the right words?

It's difficult to say what EXACTLY an entrepreneur does.

But if you see yourself as entrepreneur, then this is an important question.

You're not here to create a new job for yourself.

⏬
Let's take Twitter as an example:

What could be outsourced? Let's be honest, virtually anything!

+ Writing
+ Replying
+ DMs

But one thing cannot be outsourced: The purpose of your account.

As entrepreneur, it is your responsibility to find a viable purpose.

⏬
There are writers for hire. That's employee-level work.

But identifying an audience and developing a mission for the account, that's entrepreneur-level work.

⏬
Now don't get me wrong, we all start out by filling all three roles simultaneously:

+ Employee
+ Manager
+ Entrepreneur

As solopreneur, you have no other choice but to do it all!

⏬
This thread is meant to make you think.

WHY are you doing what you're doing on Twitter?

WHERE is this going?

Don't forget the entrepreneur inside you, while you perform important day-to-day tasks.
