Stuck in the Procrastination Cycle? How to Beat it with Consistency over Perfection!

20 minutes

🎙️ Episode Description: Why Consistency Beats Perfection in Leadership

In this episode of Get Organized at Work, we're ditching the all-or-nothing mindset and talking about why consistency is the real key to leadership success—not perfection.

Here’s what we dive into:

Why max effort isn’t sustainable and how to build habits that actually last

How consistent effort builds reliability, trust, and steady growth

Why waiting until you “know how” is often a form of procrastination

The power of one simple action over time (vs. the burnout cycle of going all in)

Plus, I share tools that help me stay consistent:

✅ My Leader Standard Work

✅ Vision-setting and roadmaps

✅ Paper-to-action systems that organize thoughts into real outcomes
