Eric Siu walks through the Zone of Genius exercise: ask people what you're good at but seem to hate doing. The gap between your strengths and what energizes you is where to delegate or hire help.

There's an exercise that we've done over the years, and it's worth doing every maybe 2, 3 years or so. It's called the Zone of Genius exercise. So I might go to you and say, what are the things that I'm really good at, but I don't appear to enjoy to be doing, right? And it's like, what are the things that I'm just like doing right now, but I just suck at, right? And then you get the feedback from a lot of different people. It could be anonymous if you want it to be. I prefer it to just be like, you know, people name themselves and then they give you the feedback in person. And it feels so liberating because it's like, yeah, that's what I actually want to do. And for the rest of it, sure, go hire people to help you there if you can afford it.
