The prompt

Here is what I do in a typical week: . The people or services I could hand things to are . Sort my tasks into a table with three verdicts: only I can do this, hand over now, and teach once so I never do it again. For each handoff, name who, what they’d need from me, and what I’d still check. If handing something over would cost the other person more than it saves me, leave it with me. Then name the one task you think I’m holding onto for the wrong reason. You don’t know these people, so mark your guesses. Finish with a handoff note for the easiest one, under 100 words.
