“I want to launch but I’m not 100% ready.”
“I don’t think I’m qualified enough.”
“I don’t like promoting myself.”
“What if I fail?”
Too often, I hear people tell me their dreams of starting a new project or business, only to come back with a handful of excuses, and 6 months later having made zero progress on it.
The leaders I work with want to grow their brands, write books, design products, start online stores, produce podcasts… but for some reason they’re always “too busy” or “have other priorities that keep coming up.”
In reality, what this actually translates to is poor time management, procrastination, fear, and self-doubt.
The silent killer of all dreams is inaction.
I genuinely believe that there's a part within every single person that wants to put something out into the world that is a reflection of their authentic self… But then they get distracted by completely irrelevant things and mental self-sabotage.
Here are the mistakes I see people making in trying to launch something new:
They get too caught up in the weeds of logistical details that don’t actually move the needle
They are too easily distracted
They are too indecisive, and take advice from people who have no right giving it
They care too much about what audience reception will be
They hide behind a mask of perfectionism
They don’t create strong boundaries around their personal creative time
… and all of this results in analysis paralysis, inaction, and your personal project never seeing the light of day.
As you find time for yourself during this pandemic, I want to encourage you to dig deep within yourself and commit to putting your project out there. Especially if you’ve had a prolonged nagging, guilty voice in your head that knows you’ve been putting things off.
I want to remind you that it’s your life and you have power to express yourself.
I want to challenge you to create an action plan to execute on that personal project that will most deeply fulfill you.
And I want to help you get there. Here are three upcoming FREE Workshops I’ll be facilitating that you don’t want to miss.
