Keep your time for the things only you can do
There are some things in your company that only you will be able to do. Protect your time to do those things and try to hand everything that can be delegated to your VA. It might be tempting to hand over just a few things to start with and see how you get on, but you’ll clear so much headspace is you hand over everything you don’t need to be doing, leaving you with more time to work on the bigger picture.
Hand over the things you don’t enjoy
If you can’t bring yourself to delegate everything you don’t need to be doing yet then definitely hand over the things you just don’t enjoy doing. Imagine never having to do them again – feels good doesn’t it?!
