Never put off until tomorrow what you can delegate to someone else today.

Hello Reader, What's the secret to getting more done? Is it:
If you've ever hit burnout before, I'm sure you know the right answer. Sometimes the answer isn't in doing more, but in having less to do. One of the best ways you can do less, but still get everything done, is delegation. Delegation magnifies your effort exponentially.There is a limitation how much work you can personally do. By delegating to others, you gain their abilities, their perspective, and their time. The work you can do through others is much greater than what you can do alone. In 2014, Gallup studied 143 CEOs in the 500 fastest growing companies. They analyzed their entrepreneurial talent profiles, and compared them with the results they had achieved with their companies over the past three years. They found that high-delegators averaged 1751% growth, twice the low-delegators in the group. The high-delegators generated 33% more revenue, and created more jobs at a faster rate. "When you delegate tasks, you create followers. When you delegate authority, you create leaders.β β Craig Groeschel My attitude towards delegation changed when I heard Loral Langmeier say, "Millionaires don't do their own laundry." It completely reframed how I looked at my chores, which are an essential (and unpaid) part of my work. How much is your time worth per hour? If you are doing a task that you can delegate for a cheaper rate, you are losing money by doing it yourself. The next time you make a to-do list, add a 'D' next to anything that you could delegate to someone else. Just by acknowledging the tasks on your list that could be delegated, you will get in the habit of sharing the workload, and getting more done by doing less. Delegation frees you to focus on high-impact activities.If you need a thinking partner to sort through your to-do list with you, identify your biggest priorities, and make plans for Getting Things Done, apply for a free coaching call. |

Hello Reader, In 24 hours, I'll be going live with the Authorverse community to teach my newest workshop, '5 Business Models Behind Books.' Here are the 5 books I will be using to illustrate the 5 business models: (Yes, I am using my own book as an example. Teacher's prerogative. π) In working with so many experts and entrepreneurs over the past decade, I have been on the back-end of many businesses that rely on a published book as the cornerstone of their positioning. The 5 business models I...
Hello Reader, How do authors build a thriving business around their published work? Spoiler alert: it's not by selling more books. In my work over the past decade with authors, coaches, and speakers, I have been behind-the-scenes of multiple 6- and 7-figure businesses. I've seen how their businesses are structured, developed the commercial offers they make to their audience, and learned firsthand what's working, and what's a waste of time. Next week, I'm teaching a free workshop for the...
Hello Reader, In every story, there are three characters: the hero, the villain, and the victim. A century ago, American film was born out of the vaudeville scene. The main storytelling medium at the time was melodrama, when the characters were almost comically basic. Think of the mustachio-twirling villain, tying a damsel in distress to the train tracks, being thwarted by a gun-toting hero, and you have all the basics you need to tell a compelling story: setting, conflict, and characters....
