writing. The rest of those tasks
can be delegated. This is going
to take some patience and some
practice, especially if you have
trained everyone to depend on
you for everything.
You need to let your team know
that you are all moving forward
and that you find their support
valuable. Resist the urge to
micromanage anything that
you’ve delegated and remember
that it’s taken you years to attain
the knowledge and experience
that you have. Be patient and
positive. When you realize that
someone can do a task even
better than you can, you also
discover that you have new time
in your schedule to attain your
new goals and be your best self.
Remember: If youwant tobe and
influential leader, you’ll need to
carefully remove yourself from
tasks that can be (and should be)
done by others. Just because
you know how to do everything
doesn’t mean you have to.
Remember, when you let go,
you make space for something
better. Here’s to your continued
influence.
