Hacker News Reader

That link just sent me into a 2 hour web hole that was insanely productive.

After reading some more of the original authors work, I was linked out to the ebook Breaking the Time Barrier [0] (by the CEO of Freshbooks which I'd never heard of) which instantly helped me reframe my approach to consulting.

And this is why Hacker News is addictive; Occasional and random large rewards.

Nice!

If you enjoyed Breaking the Time Barrier, you may also want to check the material put out by Alan Weiss. In my case, the real-world proposal examples he published years back (and pulled from his own solo practice) have easily been worth six figures to me. I believe I first ran across them in his book Million Dollar Consulting, but they are covered more specifically in two of his later proposal specific publications.

I just started reading the book out of curiosity, and it's so good I can't seem to stop!
