4 Essential Steps To Get More Done In Less Time With Leveraged Tasks

I’ve always wished my business was full of robots.

Hiring and holding people accountable for silly, redundant activities is rarely a good investment in human capital. It siphons away crucial resources — time, money, and potential.

When I became the Vice President of Acquisitions (buying commercial aircraft parts, planes, and technology), my days were riddled with endless administrative work; it was exhausting.

I was very frugal, so I forced myself to have a misallocated budget, which made me the sole owner of hundreds of repetitive tasks.

If I had invested better in the right areas, I would have created the leverage of time to improve my performance.

Instead, I made an excuse for many years that “only I can do it the right way.” It was exhausting, and it cost me time, money, and a lot of frustration. However, everything changed once I realized that my time and potential were better invested in higher-value activities.

I started to see things from an automate, then delegate mentality.

It’s now why every pillar of my business is required to build a SWAT team of standard operating procedures, automation, and templates.
