The Art of Delegation

If you are a rugged individualist, a control freak, or even an annoying micro manager-- good luck.

You're gonna need it.

How do I know that?

Sigh.

Let's just say that I do.

I am going through the growing pains of coming to terms with seeing the true value in effective delegation.

It is the better choice 'cause I can't do everything.

As a matter of fact, if I am completely candid, there are only a few select things I can do exceptionally well.

It is better to free up my time and focus on what I am good at.

I have a few mentors that have influenced me in my life. Recently one of them said:

"I used to think 'How can I do this?', now I think 'Who is gonna do it?'".

That's a major paradigm shift for me.

If you think about it deeply though, it is clear that highly successful individuals are masterful delegators.


Makes sense.
