If you want something done right, do it yourself. Agree or disagree? - Fish - Oct 12, 2026
If you want something done right, do it yourself. Period. Trusting other people can get you fucked over and cost you a lot. If you do it yourself, you do it once, you do it right, and you know it’ll be good. If you let someone else do it, they can half-ass it, and you’ll be paying for their laziness later. Am I wrong?

100% agree
No one but yourself cares enough for a task

I get what you mean, especially when you've been let down by people who don't put in the same effort as you. But doing everything yourself can burn you out too. I think it's more about knowing who you can trust and when it's worth handling things yourself.

100% agree don't like relying on others for stuff.

Um no, I'm probably going to hire someone to fix it.

Yeah i do notice that. Putting a lot on my plate can be hard at times. Need to find a good balance i guess

Yeah, finding that balance is probably the hardest part. You want things done right, but you also need time for yourself.
