Your time is worth more than doing everything yourself.

What happens here

The speaker outlines a straightforward 'flowchart' for making delegation decisions. For any task, you should ask, 'Is it possible that somebody else [in your company/team] could be doing this?' If the answer is 'yes,' then the instruction is clear: 'delegate.' He acknowledges that this process can be 'so freaking hard' due to the natural reluctance to let go of tasks.

Goal: Systematically identify tasks that can and should be delegated to optimize personal workload and focus.
