Stop Being a Bottleneck

Bottlenecks can be a good thing if you need to slow down the flow. There's a reason for them. In business, however, this can really hinder the success of a company.

I've come to realize that as the owner of a business, I can be a major bottleneck. The growth and success is dependant upon my mindset. If I feel like I have to do everything, the business will only grow so much. I only have so many hours in a day. There's only so much I can do.

So what's the key?

Delegate (and trust).

My partner and I put a lot of time into bringing the right people onto the team. We have hired them for a reason. Let's give them the opportunity to shine. They can handle the pressure.

Diamonds are formed from extreme pressure.

And when they need support, my partner and I are here for them. At the end of the day we're all working towards the same goal. As a team.
