HELP! The Greatest 4-Letter Word You Know

Lately I have been having a lot of conversations with my clients about the importance of having people help you get things done. We all hesitate to ask for help or take people up on their offers to help. If done right, hiring people or delegating responsibilities can be the best thing you could ever do for yourself. Here is the right way to ask for HELP: Hire people or services to help you get things done in your work and personal life. It is impossible to get it all done by yourself. Not only do you want to hire people to lessen the load, you also want to hire people or services that are experts in their fields. Experts, like myself, help you figure out the best way to get something completed with the right resources, in a shorter amount of time and done the right way. Services that make your life simpler and easier to manage are professional organizers, bookkeepers, administrative help, landscapers, personal trainers, cleaning services, and child care, among others. Explain what you want them to do and what you expect the outcome to be. If you are fortunate to have someone at home or in the office that can assist you on completing tasks, first say yes and then prepare yourself to train them. The best way to make this work for you is to tell those who are helping how, when, where and most importantly why so they get a complete understanding of what you expect. Take the time to teach them what you know and share your expertise; and then let it go. If you train the right person the right way, you will find new found freedom that will benefit you, your business and your time. Let go of what you are not good at doing or don't like. If you are managing a home, a small business or a corporate giant, you probably find that you are doing more and more on your own these days. To successfully delegate or hire services, you have to select the right tasks. Determine what tasks are most important for you to complete and what are you the best at doing and pass on the rest. Plan how you are going to use your new-found time. So now that you have chosen the right person, trained them on how to do the job and delegated those things you don't like, it is time to decide how you are going to use your time. Don't be shy, asking for HELP is one of the best tools you can use to get your time and life organized. Isn't it time you hired an expert to get the job done right the first time?
