The best piece of advice I got from

I've interviewed Sir Richard Branson on business probably more times than anyone else.

I'm also the

largest individual fundraiser to

Virgin Unite, Richard's charity.

(My company does trips to Necker Island every year. $40,000 a person.)

And I remember being in Richard's kitchen on his island, Necker Island, a couple of trips ago.

So, as I was standing there, I asked Richard,

"When's the last time you went to a grocery store?"

Page 7: The Best Advice I Ever Got From Richard Branson

He looks at me and says, "I don't think

I've ever been

to the grocery

store."

I said, "What do you mean?

How is it possible you've never gone to a grocery store?"

So I followed up with, "Well, when's the last time you did laundry?"

Page 10: The Best Advice I Ever Got From Richard Branson

And Richard said,

"I've never

done

laundry."

Perplexed, I said, "What do you mean you've never done laundry??

What about when you

were a kid?"

"My mum

did my

laundry", Richard said.

Then Richard simply said,

"Joe, you hire people to do that

stuff."

$$$$Then he said,

"Taking the time to hire the

right person will save you

thousands of hours in the

future and in your life."

That was probably the best piece of advice I ever heard Richard say.

Think of all the hours

you spend on stuff

that if you just had

someone else do that

stuff...

And this doesn't just go for stuff you don't want to do, but also stuff

they could do more effectively.

Every time you hire yourself to do something you're not good at or you don't really like, you're wasting time you will never get back AND...

you're hiring the

worst person.

Just think about this:
