This article talks about how to figure out what tasks you should give to others. It's about making a list of everything you do, rating those tasks based on how much energy they give you, and then deciding what to delegate. The main idea is to focus on what you're good at and what you enjoy, and let others handle the rest.
The Delegation Game Plan
To start, you need to get everything down on paper. Think about all the things you do for your company or whatever project you're working on. This means everything from driving to editing, producing, and even accounting. The longer and more detailed your list, the better. Just write down whatever comes to mind.
Rate Your Tasks
Once you have your big list, go through each item and give it a rating from one to ten. This rating is about how much energy that task gives you. It's not about how hard it is, but how it makes you feel.
7-10: These are the tasks that make you feel good. You're great at them, and they give you energy. These are the things you love doing.
4-6: These tasks are okay. They're not bad, but they don't really excite you. You could probably get rid of these if you had the chance.
1-3: These are the tasks that drain your energy. You probably don't like doing them, and they might even make you feel tired or stressed.
What to Delegate
The tasks that fall into the 1-3 range are the ones you should definitely try to delegate. Once you have the money or resources, these are the first things to hand off. For example, if accounting takes a lot out of you, consider hiring an accountant. If producing content is a drag, find a producer.
