Being Beaten by my own Employee

I think my employee may be better then me. Seriously. She's been working with me for about a month now - just part time two days a week - and I honestly think she's better at the production end of things then I am.

This is actually a huge relief for me. I won't lie that as the typical entrepreneur I was (and sometimes still am) pretty much convinced that I am the only one in the world who can do this as perfectly and with as much care as they need to be done despite the fact that this is not brain surgery. And then within the course of a month she's not only picked up on everything but is probably doing it better then I can/do.

I could be upset at the realization that I'm really not as special as I'd made myself out to be in my own mind (sarcasm), but it does give me something to think about as I start down the road of talking to this other company about their fulltime position. At the very least, it's reassuring to know that with the right staff this entire business doesn't have to rest solely on my shouldars.
