I find it really hard to delegate work to my development team, especially offshore developers because of the time difference. I can't reach out to most of my team during my work hours and they can't reach out to me...

Additionally, I keep looking at user stories and thinking: "I could do that myself, faster and exactly how I want it". But there are so many hours in a day and I keep restraining myself from taking on more work on my already full plate. Also, I recognize that if I did everything for my team, they miss on learning opportunities that I've enjoyed in the past.

I wonder how other lead developers do it? Any techniques or practices that might help?
