Trapped in a vicious cycle of perfectionism, overthinking, and procrastination?

Don’t worry it’s not going to be an entry from my therapy journal.

[Wait, what, you have a therapy journal?]

Joking aside 🤭

Did you ever ask yourself:
↳ Why did this idea stall?
↳ Why is the project still not done?
↳ Do other high achievers have this inability to finish projects — is that just me?

[Turns out it's true for lots or entrepreneurially minded, high achievers]

For me:
🚀 Procrastination kicks in when there's something bigger on my agenda.
👌 With perfectionism there's unreasonably high expectations for performance.
🤔 And overthinking -- the catalyst for my perfectionism and procrastination.

Tied up in a web of fear of making the wrong decision, desire for a flawless performance, and anxiety that I haven’t made progress.

Does this look familiar?

It does to me! Anyway, enough about my struggles — lets get practical.

Five steps ...

1️⃣ What is the concept or innovation behind your new idea?
↳ Identify the Core Idea

2️⃣ What is the minimum viable version of this idea that I can test?
↳ Challenge the Perfectionist

3️⃣ What are the risks or challenges associated with your idea?
↳ Debunk the Overthinker

4️⃣ How can the idea be broken down into smaller, manageable tasks?
↳ Conquer the Procrastinator

5️⃣ Who do I trust enough to share my fledgling idea and plans with?
↳ Seek Feedback from Allies

If you're prone to overthinking, perfectionism, and procrastination.

Now you can take ideas forward with greater focus and confidence.
