Master finishing things
Finishing things is an art we need to take seriously. By digging into where we are blocked we can identify our problems with the task at hand and we might even gain a broader understanding of our purpose as well.\nThis episode presents some alternative strategies to really help you identify good ideas and get things completed.\nQuestions to reflect on:\n\nWhich tasks do I reliably finish?\n\nCould some of them create value if I did more of them?\n\nWhat are my unfinished projects?\n\nWhat are the specific tasks within the project that I avoid?\n\nHow can I make it more likely to complete the difficult task?\n\n(Make it smaller / delegate it / change the time / do it with others)\n\nCan I remove the difficult tasks entirely?\n\nDo I start things which I know I won\u2019t finish and might be damaging?\n\nWhat is my goal in starting them?\n\nIs there a very different way to get there?\n\nHow much time do I put into things I don\u2019t have an interest in?\n\nIf I look at my goals should I say no to these things?\n\nWhat are the best ideas I haven't done?\n\nCan I let go of perfect and treat them as a stepping stone?\n\n\n- - -\nConnect with Sam:\n\nJoin the conversation on the social podcast app -\xa0Podvine\n\n\nSam's newsletter on creativity and entrepreneurship -\xa0Explosive Thinking\xa0\n\nSam's podcast on books -\xa0Wiser Than Yesterday\xa0\n\nSupport the Show -\xa0Patreon\xa0\n\nIf you enjoyed the podcast please subscribe and rate it.
