I’ve got a little strategy for you that is 100% related to less worrying.
This concept is critical to your success whether you are in Network Marketing or building a traditional business.
It is however a scary concept. I mean, who wants to hire someone who is better than them? Wouldn’t that be counter-productive? Taking away from what you are doing?
The strange thing about this is that if you are in a traditional business, your boss will notice that you are the one bringing in the experts in their field and YOU are the reason that their business is doing better and better. This is a great thing for you because YOU don’t need to be taking the time to learn each one of these skills because that takes you away from what you’re good at. To me it just makes sense to work with your strengths and identify your weaknesses, but have others who are good at your weakness.
For me, one thing that I am absolutely terrible at is graphic design and website design. The thing that I do for all of this is identify people who are exceptionally well at doing these things and pay them to do their specialty! It ends up saving you not only money, but also time!
Take a small business for example, one that is based on fear. I want you to picture the manager who is in charge of the hiring process. These are the people that the manager will be working with day in and day out. If this manager is scared of being replaced or overshadowed, he or she is likely to hire people who aren’t as intelligent as he/she.
Do you know what this does for the business? This keeps the business down. This individual was hired in order to build a successful business, not to ruin the business. The thing is, he/she is scared of hiring up when in reality by hiring up, the business would start to boom because experts would be working on their expertise and therefore producing great results.
Businesses that are based on fear of hiring up are doomed to ultimately fail in the end, whether they like it or not.
As Entrepreneurs we experience the same type of situations day in and day out. We often fall into the trap of “I can do this myself better than anyone else can”. Does that sound familiar? I know it was my way of doing things when I first began. I was scared of not knowing how to do something.
Now I have learned to embrace what I’m good at and find other people who are good at what I’m weak at. My business and life have improved because of this! The truth of the matter is that none of us are experts at everything, but most of us are good at something! Find that something and have others do the things you aren’t good at. Your business will thank you!
