Spot It.
You haven't taken a true vacation in years. When you try, you check email constantly, take calls from the beach and come back to a pile of problems. After a while it just feels easier to stay home and keep working.
Sight It.
If the business can't run without you for a week, too much depends on you. Decisions, customer relationships and know-how are concentrated with the owner. The team hasn't been prepared to handle things in your absence. And many owners quietly feel guilty stepping away, so they never fully let go.
Solve It.
Build a business that can run without you for a week:
- Pick a vacation date two to three months from now.
- List what usually needs you, and assign someone to handle each item.
- Train your backups before you go.
- Set clear rules for what is worth contacting you about.
- Go, and treat the week as a test that shows what still needs fixing.
Every vacation teaches you where the business still depends on you.
