Welcome to the How to Be Awesome at Your Job Podcast.

The fake delegation is the single biggest key to unlocking success and happiness in life.

Delegation is the biggest tool that allows us to have the freedom to pursue our number one, two, and three priorities in life. It's hard to let go of stuff that you're used to

owning and controlling and doing the work on and it's worth muddling through and

challenging fears that are holding us back from delegating more and the

constraints that we think we have that maybe we don't have as badly as we might

think. The secret to delegating is much less about how to do it and much more about getting over yourself,

getting through your brain and dealing with the fear and the distrust issues and the perfection issues that are likely holding you back.

That's Dave Kirpin.

He's a serial entrepreneur, New York Times best-selling author,

and a global keynote speaker.

He's also the co-founder and co-ceeo of Apprentice, a platform that connects entrepreneurs
