If you’re anything like me, ideas aren’t the problem.
It’s the lure to chase all of them at once that gets in the way.
(Which is another way of saying that focus can be really hard).
Even though I’ve documented a whole process to help reign in my own shiny object syndrome – one that works, that I now teach to others, and has helped both them and me finally pluck one thing from inside-of-head and move it to out-into-world…
I still struggle with it.
👉 One thing for one customer.
So simple. Exceptionally hard.
But how much harder is looking at half-finished things.
You know you don’t need to be more creative… you simply (exceptionally hard) need to get creating.
Can you back one idea for the next 30 days?
If it helps, you’re not walking away from the other ideas. They’re not ignored, just parked. If they’re worthy, you’ll revisit them.
But grab one (you probably already know which one).
If you care to share, I guarantee NDA-level privacy. I love talking about this stuff ✌️
