Episode 3.18 - How to Deal with Shiny New Object Syndrome


Listen Later

Hello. Raise your hand if you're guilty of shiny new object syndrome.

Haven't heard of it? It's when you start on a new thing, and it's going well...and you hit that wall that you can't quite get over.

When we get to parts that are tough, we have a fear of it not working out, so we let our project collect dust and start something else.

I've tried so many projects, and the one main reason why I didn't keep going is simply I had a fear of working through things when it got tough, because I thought things are supposed to be easier.

What's the secret? Trudging through it! We face the fear, and are not afraid of failing, and that, my friends, is a key ingredient of creating.

And I have a tip on how to fix that!
