I can do better myself

I can do it better myself

Have you ever found yourself saying this? I have. 
And you know what, it might even be true. Maybe you can do it better.
But believe me when I say…that if you hold onto these words, they will hurt you.

Hurt your business profits and prevent growth. Hurt your personal life by running you ragged.
If you want to grow your business at some point you are going to need to learn to let go.
Let someone else do some of the things that you used to do. So that you can do new things. It feels uncomfortable.

Some may even go so far as saying it hurts. But there is no way around it.
What’s the worst that could happen? 
Maybe they are not as good as you (as you predicted). Maybe they are only 80% as good.
But often having someone doing something at 80% is better than not getting support at all. 

And for things that are really high risk (and that needs to be at 100%) you can implement a quality control step so that you check things before they are released.
And, if you are anything like me, you might need to face the fact that your team is actually BETTER than you at things.
That feels uncomfortable at first too.
But now I am proud that my team is way more consistent, patient and creative than I could ever be.

Maybe it is true. Maybe you can do it better yourself. But is that really a reason not to get support?

I mean, you are only human…you can only do so much in one day.

P.S. If you are looking to get support from a Virtual Assistant then chat to the team about WHAT a VA could do for you and HOW it would work.
