Why you should get started becoming OverEmployed today if you want to make more money..
You don't need to be a coding genius, or a marketing nerd studying ads all day. You don't even need to start a business.
It's way simpler than you think..

You can connect this to business, and job offers
Often you’ll never know what part of your interview or portfolio will cement a decision to give you an offer.
And sometimes it won’t even be something YOU did.
But as long as you show up, momentum can finish the job for you.
The other day I went to get my mail from a local mailbox, and I noticed an envelope forgotten on top of the mailbox stamped with a return address on my street.
Meaning someone forgot to put it in the sending slot of the mailbox.
Me being a normal person, I did it for them.
But they’ll never know that they forgot, since their letter will be delivered because I finished the job for them.
They did 95% of the work to send that letter, they wrote a letter, walked to the mailbox, but arguably messed up the most important part, sending it.
You’re probably interviewing for remote roles at mid level companies with average to above average salaries.
Which is still great, but a lot of these companies place less importance on technical perfection.
But what they do look for is great communication + likeability.
I’ve traveled extensively and let me tell you what most won’t
It’s a waste of time
most places will blend together in your mind and you won’t even remember you went unless you see a photo of yourself
@SaaSWiz Wasted energy and resources on something that results in someone with irrelevant coding skills getting a job and coasting perpetually in an endless job hopping cycle to increase TC?
@SaaSWiz If anything, the main benefit rich/privileged people have, is the access to existing businesses to inherit/networks.
You barely need any capital to start a biz now.
Have you ever thought…
“I wish I could just fast forward thru this shitty part and get to when my goal becomes real?”
Right. Me too.
But taken to the natural extreme, the day you die, you would’ve achieved all the goals you set out to accomplish.
And then - immediately die.
Which when you think about it - shows how silly it is for us to think this way.
You might as well say “I’d like to fast forward to the end of the movie”
If that’s the case, you might as well not watch it. Or in our case - live it.
So - the reverse of that would be to value the shitty part as equal (or even greater than) the end.
Since we don’t want the story to end (we die), we flip the “fast forward to the end” frame to “slow down right now”
In other words - the todays - become the “good ol days” of our future selves looking back.
And - doing the work - becomes the only goal worth living for.
