Many entrepreneurs and business owners have found that as their business grows, they are mired in the small details.  None of these things are taxing, difficult to accomplish or overwhelming.  Yet, they nip, nip, nip at our time.  Before we know it, we have spent hours checking off these small things and the day has gotten away from us.  Are these some areas or needs that someone else could do to free us up for the ‘big rocks’?  Would these things allow us to transition from working in our business to working on our business?  What are some other key questions that need to be considered in this thinking?
