Oct 27, 2021

I'm going to talk to you about delegation, the hardest and most important part of getting wealthy. I’m going to share a fact that I made up. 99% of business owners suck at delegation, specifically, management tasks. Meaning, a task that's not simply obeying orders, for example, answering phone calls or delivering kinds of stuff. When I say management task, I meant, doing the work to make a decision that impacts the business's bottom line, whether it be quoting jobs, hiring, or training employees, selling new work, and deciding whether to buy something or not. All those things that you as a business owner get overloaded doing. Now, 99% of business owners absolutely suck at delegating that stuff, and that's why they work way too much, and they're underpaid.
