Ep 14. The Cost of Inaction: What is Killing your Homestead Productivity and How to Stop It

Listen Later

We often appear busy, but are we truly productive? Let’s discuss the dilemma of wanting to learn and implement new homesteading techniques but often failing to take action.

  • In this episode, I will discuss:
    • The Perfectionist Trap: Understanding how the fear of imperfection can lead to inaction.
  • The Learning-Implementing Gap: The cycle of endless learning without application.
  • The Cost of Inaction: The immediate and long-term costs of procrastination, particularly how it affects our mental health and sanity.
  • Overcoming Procrastination with DWPP: Learn the four-step method to effectively tackle procrastination in homesteading tasks.

    • Homework:

    • For those caught in the perfectionist trap: Start small and give yourself grace. Try it anyway!
  • For the constant learners: Take a day off each week from podcasts, YouTube, audiobooks, etc. Use this time for implementation.
