The Power of Outsourcing — Ali Abdaal

Ali Abdaal is one the YouTubers I have been following for a few years now. In one of his recent videos, he shares how he gained 4 million subscribers in his spare time. What I found more fascinating is the power of outsourcing. As he explains in his video, when he started outsourcing his video editing tasks, it freed up more time for him to focus on tasks that he enjoys most.

I found this approach very liberating because most of us tend to do things on our own. This usually leads us into spending too many hours on tasks that we might not even be more qualified to do. The downside is that we might be losing the opportunity to grow simply because we want to accomplish everything on our own.
