Learn to rely on others to help you achieve your goals

Create systems that can eliminate bogus people
When looking for people to help you, focus on those who repeatedly show up for you. Which people around you ask nothing much of you? Who offers help when you need it? Pay attention to people around you who have earned your trust, work hard, take initiative, and are passionate and teachable.

Get comfortable with delegating some tasks
There are particular tasks you either aren’t good at or don’t enjoy doing. Therefore, consider delegating such tasks. For example, you can get hire an assistant to handle your emails or bookkeeping tasks. Get used to handing over the reins to somebody else and stop trying to micromanage once you’ve delegated certain tasks.

Accept that people may disappoint you
At some point, people will fail to meet your expectations. This is inevitable and you just have to learn to cope with it. If it was a single mistake and the person is usually reliable, give them some grace. If necessary, you can also reassign the job to somebody else. But avoid taking the reins back and doing the work yourself.

Eliminate the guilt when someone fails you
Someone’s failure to properly do the work you delegated to them isn’t a reason to admonish yourself. Avoid the tendency to beat yourself up or obsess over what you could have done differently. Let the person fix the mistake so that you can keep focusing on your work.
