Are there aspects of your business, certain tasks, that you don’t do well or that you hate? And are you still doggedly pursuing them?

I know this song is getting a little old - concentrate on your strengths and not your weaknesses - we’ve all heard it. And yet we still find ourselves getting sucked into the trap of trying to do everything. Whether it’s to save money or simply because we believe we should be able to do it all.

So, when you feel you’re sinking, take a moment and ask:

Can you ditch it?
Can you downsize it?
Can you delegate it?
