Shoremates,

Welcome back to Mind Your Helm.  The podcast designed for those who who want the best books broken down into small, bite sized pieces. My name is JD Elliott, and I am the Life Navigator.  If you want free access to all my personal notes from each book, updated weekly, go to thelifenavigator.com Podcast episodes are released Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.  On Tuesdays and Thursdays I’ll be live on Twitch where we can answer questions or go more in depth. Just search for The Life Navigator, follow me, and you’ll get notifications whenever I go live and we can talk.  If Youtube is more your thing, every Saturday a new episode will be released from our talks on Twitch.   

Action items for today. For ease of reference, these are listed in the show notes as well. 

1.  Over several decades, Dave has built this 12 point system for hiring.  Do you need something similar to this in your workplace?  If so, feel free to borrow from his time tested system?
2. At the beginning of this chapter Dave said that he was initially afraid to fire someone.  Is this you?  If so, prepare yourself for Wednesday’s podcast episode and start preparing new criteria for someone to replace their job. 

Shoremates, I hope that this episode was valuable to you. Each book we choose has to have the potential to change your life in a positive way, and I highly recommend adding this book to your bookshelf. 

Always, always remember.  You’ve got this.

-J.D. Elliott
