You’re Not “Too Busy to Delegate”... You’re Too Valuable Not To

Written by Emily Morgan | Aug 29, 2025 2:49:12 PM

We hear this all the time: “I don’t have time to delegate right now.”

 

But here’s the truth bomb: If you don’t have time to delegate, you definitely don’t have time to keep doing everything yourself.

 

That bottleneck you’re feeling? It’s overcome-able!

 


Here’s the fix:

  • Step 1: Reframe Your Value
    Ask yourself: Would I pay someone my rate to do this task? If not, it’s time to pass it on.
  • Step 2: Build a “Let It Go” List
    For one week, log every task you do. Highlight what someone else could own. That’s your delegation starter kit.
  • Step 3: Choose a Team, Not Just a Person
    Don’t just offload tasks: build a relationship with a team of thinkers and doers who understand your ideas and can proactively manage outcomes.

Time isn’t your enemy. Misaligned effort is.

 

Let’s build the support team around you that you deserve. Let’s get started.
