Re-delegation
Give a man a fish and feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
This is a very old example of the importance of teaching which I believe focuses mostly on the benefits to the man. The other half is the benefit to you. Instead of having this man bother you and beg for a fish everyday, you are free from his burden as he can now fish on his own. Teaching this man to do this may take much longer than simply providing him with a fish, but it saves lots of time in the long run.

Complaining and Worrying…
I am not much of a complainer. While I am very critical (and somewhat cynical), I do my best to see the positive in things and to not let little problems get me down. The problem I see with complaining revolve around it’s similarities to worrying, which I almost never do. In both cases, you experience a good deal of stress and anguish without much of a reward. I tend to also be very strategic and efficient, so actions that waste time and energy are not high on my list. But, there are many situations where it is difficult not to worry or complain.
