A while back I reflected on how people are our biggest assets, and the currency we have to invest in them is our time.
I’ve been thinking about that some more this week in the context of the principle of diversification.
A diversified investment portfolio is one that maximises return while minimising risk.
So as we invest/inject/deposit our time into these human assets, how are we thinking about spreading that time around?
What withdrawals of our time could be made from some areas for a more effective reinvestment elsewhere?
How has the pandemic changed the way this portfolio of human assets and weighting of our time looks?
And do how we see ourselves in this portfolio of human assets?
How much time do we invest in ourselves?
What about our loved ones? Our kids? Our friends?
I guess the holistic make-up of this portfolio – both in terms of the people and weighting of time – depends on how we define risk and return.
So how do you define it?
