High-complexity, safety-critical, or specialized tasks (like electrical work) often require a professional, while simpler tasks are suitable for DIY.

The text is asking about the factors that help decide if a task can be done as a DIY (Do It Yourself) project or if it requires hiring a professional. The three factors mentioned are:

  1. Complexity: This refers to how complicated the task is. If a task is very complex, it might be better to hire a professional who has the expertise to handle it.

  2. Time: This considers how much time you have available to complete the task. If a task is time-consuming and you have limited time, hiring a professional might be more efficient.

  3. Skill Level: This looks at the skills required to complete the task. If the task requires skills that you don’t possess, it might be necessary to get a professional who has the right skills.

These factors help in deciding whether you can do the task yourself or if it’s better to get professional help.
