The #1 Thing to Avoid as a
Meticulous Maker
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.
At some point, you have to have the courage to release what you’re working on, see how people respond, and adjust.
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.
Three Strategies to
🚀 Boost Your Revenue
as a
Meticulous Maker
1. Have an experimenter's mindset.
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!
2. Give yourself constraints.
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.
3. Build in public.
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!
