A question: Do you see yourself as the only competent one in your world? Are you able to hand things off to team members?
It can be a hard mindset to release because it can feel so risky.
Taking ownership is a good thing, but check yourself. Is there some arrogance there?
Eddie says that “Gram” used to say, “If you want to know what kind of difference you’re going to leave when you’re gone, stick your finger in a cup of water and pull it out.” That feels pretty cold (the statement, not the water), but it’s also true–at least in the long run.
Acknowledge that others can help you, and you’ll be better off if you do.
If this is a struggle for you, print off the poem Eddie read today and post it in your workspace.
