Randy Mayes and I are currently creating material for our July's Leadership Book of the Month article on the book "4-Hour Workweek".  One of the themes of the book is to save time by dumping the things you don't do well or that you don't like to do (same difference!).  A common mistake business owners make is that they tie themselves down in too many tasks associated with the business.  They do everything and therefore they end up doing nothing to grow, evolve, or develop their business.

It is not a bad thing for business owners / managers to get their hands dirty from time to time.  However, if the business owner is ALWAYS stuck in the trenches, they will lose the big picture.  It is absolutely critical that a business leader frees up time in order to think, to evaluate, and to plan.  The truth is... being too busy to do those things is a self-correcting problem.
