The Perfectionism Project

Ep 517: How To Stop Putting Off Non-Urgent Tasks (best of the podcast)


Listen Later

If you’ve been avoiding a new or scary task simply because it doesn’t have a deadline, you’re not alone. As perfectionists, we struggle to follow through on tasks that feel unfamiliar or uncertain—especially when no one else is holding us accountable.  

The problem? These are often the exact tasks that will move your business forward. And the longer you put them off, the longer you stay stuck.  

In this episode, I’m sharing exactly why perfectionists procrastinate on non-urgent tasks and, more importantly, how to break free from this pattern so you can start honoring the deadlines you set for yourself—even when no one else is watching.  

If you’re tired of waiting until the last minute (or never) to take action, this episode is for you.
