Ps. If you're like...Whoa, whoa, this isn't sounding like me at ALL, no probs! Check out the other results here and pick the one that suits you most. You're a complex human after all!
Valuing thoughtfulness, thoroughness and quality are incredible assets as a business owner, but be careful that they don’t turn into a liability by preventing you from “shipping” more often. Planning is important, but only as a precursor to action. Make sure that you’re not in perpetual “under construction” mode.
Perfectionism is just a fancy way of avoiding the fear that comes with stepping foot in the arena. But the arena is where you actually learn what works in your business! Set a goal to overthink less and share more.
Real business learnings don’t come from playing things out in your head; real learning comes from trying things out in the real world. When you view every project as an experiment, the stakes become much lower. Either things work the way you hope OR you get real-world feedback and you learn. It’s win-win!
The best way to keep perfectionism in check is to give yourself constraints. The next time you work on a project, ask yourself: what’s the smallest, best version of this I can create in X amount of time with Y amount of resources. This gives you a container to work within so your time doesn’t leak out on whatever you’re working on before you get it in front of real people.
The best way to get more comfortable with shipping your ideas is exposure therapy! The more you create in public and share your creations, the less pressure you’ll feel on any one thing because you’re creating a body of work. Give yourself a challenge to share something daily or on a regular basis so you can work on shortening the timeframe between idea to execution!
We are best friends 👫 and business partners 🤝who have been at this online business gig for years—him for over 10 👴, her for over 5 👵. We technically met on Twitter in 2010 🐦, when Caroline was just a college advertising major 🎓and Jason was at the height of his first crazy entrepreneurial adventure where he earned $1,000,000+ wearing t-shirts 👕 for a living (Yes, really! Google it.🔍) We've been together ever since, and we made it official by eloping on a cliff overlooking the ocean in March of 2017. 🌊⛰👰🤵💍🍩🍹💞
