Life won’t give you everything, but it will throw everything at you. So whatever life throws at you, take it and make it better. Do not resent it. Do not complain about it.
It is given to you to make you a better person, to make you better than you were yesterday. If you are waiting for your life to be perfect, for your business to be perfect, for your employees to be perfect, then you are going to wait forever.
If you are not careful, you will lose your heart. No matter what is going on in your life, do not forget yourself. Do not lose your heart. Stay strong. Be there for yourself. Above all, focus on what is important to you.
You can do it. And the place to start is where you are. And the time to start is right now, not tomorrow.
You cannot do everything. You need to delegate responsibility to other capable people working for and with you. Great leaders know how to use delegation of responsibility to get things done in their organizations. Delegating tasks to other people working for and with you gives you time to think, reflect, and plan.
When you delegate responsibility to others, you have given them the opportunity to grow, to think, to reflect, to stretch, to make decisions, to take risks, to explore, and to be a part of something bigger than them. But when you fail to delegate responsibility to others, you have widen the distance between you and your employees.
Whether you are a manager or not, delegate responsibility to others working or living with you. Don’t abandon them with the project, always check up on them to see how they are doing. Don’t assume they are doing well, go and see it yourself.
“When you delegate responsibility to others, you have given them the opportunity to grow, to think, to reflect, to stretch, to make decisions, to take risks, to explore, and to be a part of something bigger than them.”
Here are seven reasons why managers don’t like to delegate responsibility to others:
They think their people are not qualified to do the job
They can do it
They don’t want to look stupid in front of their boss
They want to protect themselves
They want to show their boss that they are ready for the next level
They are insecure
Their people can do it, but they don’t want to
Delegating responsibility to others allows you to focus on more important things in the organization or in your department.
