Can you finish this old saying?
If you want something done right
We all know that the final words are “do it yourself”.
Supposedly, the first one to utter this saying was Charles-Guillaume Etienne, a 19th Century French dramatist.
Since then, it’s been regurgitated by
gurus, parents, coaches, and anyone preaching self-reliance and rugged
self-reliance. And gobbled up without thought by their minions.
But I submit that “If you want
something done right, do it yourself” is one of the worst pieces of
advice to ever become a cliché.
First, unless you’re an expert at the “something”, how can you be sure you’ll do it “right”?
In fact, every human being is highly
proficient at only a handful of skills. Some individuals are not highly
proficient at ANY skills.
So, for 99.99% of the “somethings” you want done right, it’s better to find SOMEONE ELSE to do it. Not do it yourself.
What “something” are you doing yourself that you should be delegating to someone else?
Where in your online business are you following the boneheaded advice of “If you want something done right, do it yourself?”
- Creating products to sell
- Sourcing products to sell
- Generating traffic
- Converting traffic
- Phone sales
- Customer service
- Website design
What if there was a proven system that
did all this for you? A system that’s paid out over $10 million in
commissions to business owners just like you?
