I used to try to do everything myself, being a jack of all trades and I was proud of it.

Then the life stopped rewarding my jack of all tradeness and I felt the pressure to focus on one thing and one thing only.

That one thing allowed me to hire people who are good at what they do instead of half assing those things myself.

This is my story, your story, and probably the story of the humanity itself.

I was in the same position. Always justifying delays to "I learned something new". Totally forgetting the goal: ship a product. Actually putting money at stake (instead of just time) finally shook me out of that.
