Blogging caught on in a major way sometime between 1999 and 2001, mostly as a method of publishing a "web log", or online diary. By 2005, however, it was no longer just a way for people to express themselves, vent and connect - blogging had become a viable source of income.Today, almost every blogger puts up an AdSense button, in vague hopes that people will click something.

Some of that was out of necessity, but, you'll have to admit some of it was due to a condition known as perfectionitis.Now that your company has grown, are you still in that startup frame of mind? If a task isn't done the way you'd do it, do you need to make corrections? Is it possible that given the parameters of a particular task, there might be a number of different ways to accomplish the same thing? Would you be willing to admit it is possible that an employee might have an approach to a task completely different from yours, but with the same or better results than if you'd done it yourself?
