Podcasts about why we procrastinate

Inspired by some moments of self-reflection, Matt and Garrett return today to tackle the common struggles of perfectionism and procrastination, offering up their own experiences as examples. Together, they emphasize how perfectionism often becomes a form of procrastination, paralyzing entrepreneurs and business owners from taking action. Through real-life stories from their work in real estate and entrepreneurship, they highlight the importance of overcoming overthinking and embracing imperfect action. With their trademark mix of humor and practical insights, our hosts explore how new technologies, decision fatigue, and the fear of imperfection can all hinder progress, making accountability a crucial tool in breaking the cycle of inaction. Encouraging listeners to focus on progress over perfection, they stress the power of taking immediate action, no matter how imperfect it may seem, and explain how even small steps forward can lead to meaningful growth, whether in creating content, launching new projects, or delivering services. Authenticity, feedback, and iteration become key themes as Matt and Garrett demonstrate here today that taking action and learning from results is the only way to move forward and achieve success, rendering progress the ultimate driver of growth.Don't forget, if you're ready to take your life to 11, join Life at Ten Tenths' exclusive online ‘11 Circle' community for live coaching, Success Lab Workshops, accountability, a resource library, powerful networking - including referrals - and so much more!
