80% done by someone else is 100% freaking awesome Podcast: Modern Wisdom @Chris Williamson

How do people get past the, no one can do it as well as me trap? My philosophy is 80% done by somebody else is 100% freaking awesome. Meaning that that hour, you didn't have to clean your apartment or your flat. That was 80% awesome. Could you have done it better? Maybe, but you didn't. So while they were supporting you on that part of your life, you were hanging out with your friends, going to the gym or working on that new project. I've just gotten to a place where my expectations are low. Does that mean it costs me a little bit more than if I did it myself? Yes, but I also didn't have to do it.
