| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Darren Daly on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better every day. |
| 0:07.3 | Here's your success mentor, Darren Hardy. |
| 0:13.6 | Good morning. Are you enjoying the 10 steps so far? I want you to take a sip of your coffee, your tea, or smoothie, and let's get ready to close out this week. |
| 0:22.4 | So today I'm going to share a success tip that could not only significantly reduce the stress in your life, |
| 0:27.7 | but also make you far more productive and successful. |
| 0:31.1 | How would you like to get two times, five times, ten times more done each day in half the time. Does that sound good? Okay, here's |

| 1:45.7 | capable founder CEO of all time, you are still better off delegating functions off to a specialist, |
| 1:52.7 | an expert at every single discipline of all the components of your business. This allows you |
