2. Think of Others Delegate, and delegate again. Let go of your trust issues. If you are going to grow your business or team, then you have to let go of some things and trust the process. Comedian Jerry Seinfeld credits the runaway success of his sitcom to delegating the acting to his costars. He was well aware that he was a stand-up comedian and not a thespian.
3. Share the Burden Research what your best options are for help in your business or life. There are a plethora of people who want to help with the tasks you want to let go of. They are waiting for you to give them business. Is it time to hire a gardener or a window washer? Is it past time for you to hire a virtual assistant to support your administrative tasks? There are tons of ways to farm out items you don’t want, need, or have time to do. Take advan-
tage of these options and get out of your own way. On paper, this seems so easy. “Oh, three simple steps, that’s all it takes,” you may be thinking. “No problem.” Don’t underestimate the impact of answering the question: “Am I the best person for this job?” Be ready to receive a whole lot of wonderful and watch your productivity soar.

Grubb singled out Village Properties Realtor Brianna Johnson as the main organizer of the event. Johnson had the idea for the very first Teachers Fund supplies drive, and has been key to the fundraiser’s success ever since. She and Grubb co-chair the organizing committee. Other committee members are Leanne Wood, Dianne Johnson, Amy Abbott, Sheela Hunt, Angel Speier, Candace Cavaletto, Dana Patterson, Ivonne Arroyo, and Rachael Bissig. “Johnson’s creativity and dedication is what makes this event possible every year,” said Grubb. “Thanks to her leadership, a strong committee, and all of their efforts, we’ve made a real difference in the lives of hundreds of teachers and students.” The Teacher’s Fund was created in 2002 by the owners of Village Properties as a way for teachers to request much needed supplies for their classrooms. Since then, the Teacher’s Fund has donated over $1.7 million to our local schools. 100 percent of the funds raised go directly to local teachers for their classrooms.
