Think of yourself as a professional with a skill set. Work on the highest priced jobs yourself. Sub-out the less cost effective stuff. I don't do exterior painting anymore. If I have the choice of hiring a plumber to retro-fit copper in my house, or a painter to paint the outside, I hire the painter and do the plumbing myself.

All things being equal though, there are some jobs I enjoy more than others. Drywall and pulling wire are pain in the arse jobs. I'd do almost anything else before those jobs.
