194. How to start something, stop perfecting & get out of your own way
JOIN MY WORKSHOP “GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY” HERE: https://www.tlb.org.uk/getoutofyourownwayI originally called this episode “My work is a bit s**t & so is yours” …because at some point you will look back and the VERY work you thought was your BEST work at the time and think it’s not very good. This is NOT a reason to stop yourself from starting. I want you to consider:* Where in business are you withholding your work by perfecting it to try and “future proof” it from being a bit s**t (spoiler: you cant)* Can you allow yourself to release your creations into the world right now (KNOWING FINE WELL that you’ll probably be able to do better, be better in future) and allow that to be absolutely ok. More than ok * Can you run your creation through the filter of “is this going to impact JUST ONE person positively if I stop holding it back and instead release it into the world?” * Will I give myself the self support to hold myself and hold my nerve through the self doubt that rises when I get out of my own way and do the thing This is a public episode.
