Delegate!

Some times we get stressed not just from the multitude of demands of our “regular” job, but from all things on our personal to-do list.  Things like getting the house painted, cleaning out closets, mowing the yard and walking the dog before the day gets too hot. 

Well guess what?   We don’t have to do them all.  Yup, it’s true.  It is not quite like magic where it will go away, but the end result is nearly the same.  Delegate! (to commit (powers, functions, etc.) to another as agent or deputy/ Dictionary.com.).  Either the whole, or part, of the job to a “specialist”.  Think of the time and effort that can be saved and better used elsewhere!

There are a variety of agencies that specialize in listing respected companies; like the Better Business Bureau or Angie’s List.  And there  is always the time honored method of using personal referrals, like for College Works Painting, a professional group of college students that will prep and paint nearly anything inside and out.

If we employ others to help with our to-do lists, we can then pick and choose where we focus our talents and time.  Of course, we still need a bit of R & R, and massages fit so well into that niche. Now that we have the time, let’s go get a massage while someone else cleans the pool.
