Secret Jedi Powers Part Two
Should I Use the Force?
Previously I talked briefly about the "force" in our lives, the power of delegation, and within that, a slight reference to why we should delegate.
In today's hectic, task oriented, and practically alien society we find ourselves having an emperor sized plate of things to do. Usually at least twice as much as we can realistically accomplish ourselves. While prioritizing will make it immensely easier to get these tasks done, it may not get everything done that is necessary or important.
Each of us has limited time, energy and talents. Even though as Jedi your energy really can be increased, (see Simpleology 103) there are still some physical limitations within any given time period, and while Jedi can see into the future they still can't stop time. Delegation increases your productivity, power, talents, time and more by making use of these forces found in other people, in other systems, and tools. (You think a Jedi washes his own dishes?) It can even be a simple way to get more money just by having others do work for you at a cost less than the amount of money you receive from their results. We learn more about leveraging money, people and systems in Simpleology 102.
As we delegate we can set up systems that keep delegation working for us without us actively taking time to delegate everything every day. Then we can add more people and systems to continue increasing the amount of work and results being achieved for us. This can unleash another Jedi power. Synergy. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines synergy as "a mutually advantageous conjunction or compatibility of distinct… participants or elements (as resources or efforts)".
Synergy accomplishes more with people working together than the sum of talents and skills those people could perform if working individually. How? I don’t know. (Asking Yoda you should be)
Whether you have people, computers or some other tool/system working productively for you, you will free up time for you to do what you do best or enjoy most. Make sure to check out free systems like we have set up for you inside your Simpleology account.
You have great powers available to you. Use them, and use them often for your good and the good of others. "The force will be with you, always."

It has been said that we over estimate what we can achieve in a year and under estimate what we can achieve in a lifetime.
I would love to delegate tasks when I find someone to delegate them to.
I have complete Simpleology 101 and 102. Yet to complete 103. I am still looking at tall the extras that are packed into mark's courses.

I like what you said about achieving. I would like to quote that sometime. Do you remember the source? (or is it you?)
I also am working through the Simpleology courses. Great content!
Works well to do something each day.
Thanks,
Shane
