My theory is that you have 2 sets of 4 hours per day. If you work 8 hours for the same employer then that is kind of 1x results for you. If you do 4 hours work and 4 hours "networking" then that often becomes 2x results - at that one company. This is considered good career moves. It's what all these 300K job discussions revolve around. You could do 4 hours and 4 hours slacking off. That's usually 1X as well. sometimes more ! You could do 4 hours work and 4 hours writing blog posts. That sometimes is 2-3x or more. Not often. Finally you could do 4 hours at each of two companies. This seems 2x as well.
