That’s what prolific inventor and entrepreneur Danny Hillis says is the secret to his productivity.
He’s looking for ‘non-redundancy’. Clear air. Why work on something that someone else will figure out anyway?
What a refreshing way to think about work and the value you bring.
But one that requires fortitude and forbearance.
Imagine having this discussion with your boss, for example.
Or you being the boss.

P.S. I heard Danny talk about this on the Tim Ferriss podcast. The piece on non-redundancy is at the 1 hour 19 min mark.
