For me it's about giving myself the permission to "give up" and let someone else handle it. Like you, I realized that being surrounded by broken things and incomplete projects was causing me a lot of constant low-level stress. As a person who prides themselves on being self-reliant, it's hard to pay for something that I know I could do it myself, even when the cost is insignificant. It helps to remind myself there are other things to optimize for, like saving time and preserving mental sanity.
