If you earn more than $10/hr (our pricing), you can profit with YOUR TIME if you get an assistant to do work you don't like.
DM.
2/ If you learn better with someone helping you one-on-one, DM and I'll match you with a Roaman tutor. You pay the tutor directly. I suggest paying at least the median, and more if the tutor did a really good job.
Please include in your DM what you want to use Roam for.
3/ You want to help other Roamans with tutoring. You should get paid: tutoring is valuable work. But it is awkward to ask for payment. Noteninja solution:
- Signup: buymeacoffee.com
- Do a good job
- Noteninja asks your tutee to buy you coffee :)
For free. How? Next tweet
4/4 Noteninja is a freemium service. We connect Roaman tutors and tutees for free.
The paid premium service is for helping you REGAIN YOUR TIME with our in-house admin assistants ($10/hr).
Business model jiu-jitsu! Future rBook: Evidence-based Entrepreneurship with Roam.
P.S. We are doing the first introductions today - between two sets of tutors-tutees. So 🤞🤞🤞

1/ PROJECT-DRIVEN PRODUCTIVITY (a chapter in ROAMforPM.com)
This is my main reason for using Roam for project management. I seamlessly switch between projects, and between the commanding heights of PM to the daily execution of task management.
Sharing my workflow.
2/ This system designed on 4 truths and against 2 falsehoods.
Let me share them first, so you can implement this the way you want. Then I'll share my implementation.
Truth #1: projects are pathways towards creating a future you want. It is the craft of bringing ideas to reality
3/ Truth #2: a project is a collection of work, and work is what allows us to traverse that pathway from idea to reality.
In Scripture, exorcists need to find out the name of a devil first before they could banish it.
h/t to @AlexanderELundy for naming a devil I've been attempting to exorcise: unelected leisure.
How do you defeat this boss?
2/ This devil wants you to spend your limited lifetime for entities which may not have your best interest in mind.
For instance, I have wasted so much of my lifetime in YouTube. Some entity bought my attention pretty cheap (I'm an advertiser so I know). And I mindlessly sold it.
3/ This also doesn't mean robotic productivity. I want a lot of rest and a lot of leisure, but I want them to be something I choose: lifting, biking, hiking, reading, hanging out with friends and family, watching a good movie.
1/ WHY LEARN PROFESSIONAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT
- do it right
- bring more ideas to reality
- less stress
2/ It turns out there's actually an established way of doing projects.
I found out about professional project management when I was in corporate tech. It made me look back at my college years. If only I knew this back then, I would have done a better job with less stress.
3/ I'm not a natural organizer.
I know people who get a kick out of organizing parties & weddings. I avoid these as much as possible.
But I was promoted as project manager, and eventually I started my own business. I needed to do the job well despite not being a natural at it.
1/ #ROAMCULT GAMES OF THE PRIESTLY CLASS AND THE LAITY
It's brilliant. #roamcult may have found the way to prevent a community from actually being a cult: facetiously being a cult!
But there's a thing no community could prevent: being a tribe.
Thus we have (two) tribal games.
2/ There's a part of us which can't avoid playing tribal games: System 1 (cf. Thinking, Fast and Slow)
What helped me operationalize this is the stallion & rider model stallionrider.com
If your stallion is with its troop, gameplay is automatic. So choose your troop well!
3/ It is hard to find a troop better than #roamcult. In all my years in the internet, I haven't met a group more open, erudite and nice than #roamcult!
I'm really curious what led to this. I hope a pro studies this community. I'm just enjoying this and hoping this will last.
