in Mail Your Child to Sri Lanka or Hire Indian Pimps: Extreme Personal Outsourcing on The Blog of Author Tim Ferriss
I read your book Tim. I enjoyed much of it but will admit to feeling a little whipped with all the outsourcing talk.

I am married with 3 kids. You mention above I could outsource reading to my kids. Perhaps you were kidding but somehow I don't think you were.

I assume you don't have kids and if you do I beg you to reconsider outsourcing any aspect of raising them.

Why?

Because when a 4 year old child falls asleep in your arms during storytime you realize that true wealth cannot be measured in dollars or time and if anyone thinks differently... well I feel sorry for them.

in Six Sigma, Lean or TOC: What’s the Difference? on lean & six-sigma
Rob, I agree with most of things you mention. The biggest flaw with TOC, in my opinion, is their focus on always making the bottleneck (Herbie) the pacemaker. I wrote a series on this over on my blog comparing the TOC bottleneck to the Lean pacemaker. I personally believe lean has it right and Mr. Goldratt could improve on his ideas upon reading more of Mr. Ohno's ideas.
