PMP #294: How I hired my administrative assistant

Paul Minors has built a life where his work fits around his interests, not the other way around. In The Paul Minors Podcast: Productivity, Business & Self-Improvement, he digs into the practical systems and mindset shifts that make that possible. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a direct conversation about the tools and tactics for automating tasks, streamlining business operations, and fundamentally redesigning your time. Paul speaks from his own experience as a virtual consultant, breaking down how he structures his income and manages projects to maintain freedom and control. Each episode feels like a focused workshop, whether he's dissecting a specific productivity app, exploring a business growth principle, or interviewing someone who has mastered their own workflow. You'll find a consistent theme woven through the podcast: that real self-improvement is measured in reclaimed hours and reduced friction, not just positive thinking. It's for anyone who feels their days are slipping away in administrative loops or reactive work, and who believes there must be a more intentional way to build both a living and a life. The discussions are grounded, often technical in the best way, and always aimed at delivering something you can apply immediately to work smarter.
