"Most people’s mental models of energy are flawed: they think there’s a ‘tank’ of energy that gets depleted as you spend it. This may be roughly true for physical energy, but mental energy is different: spending mental energy on things that you consider productive or important gives you more mental energy for other things: a positive feedback loop."
^^ I had myself believing this "flawed" belief. I like this excerpt.
How long will it take to get to profitability doing something like this? Really interested in the business model part of this and how the numbers pan out.
If we wanted to, pretty soon actually -- we have been involved in the financing side of income share agreements for a couple years now so we can do this competitively. As for sustainable profitability, that will depend on our relationship (network) with employers/staffing clients and how much they value our supply of talent.
