The Perfectionism Project

Welcome to Part 5 of my 5-part Momentum Series. In this series I'm going to teach you how to create momentum in your business in just six weeks without burning out.

Creating sustainable momentum on your own hasn't worked. Thanks to perfectionism you've been getting in your own way, and your business and sanity has been paying the price.

It's not because you're not smart enough to have a successful business (you are).

And it's not because you're not capable of being a successful entrepreneur (you are).

It's simply because you've been trying to be perfect instead of simply overcoming perfectionism.

I have something to help…

Today I'm sharing how to create sustainable momentum in just six weeks inside Perfectionists Getting Shit Done.

When you have our simple productivity process for early-stage entrepreneurs that is specifically designed to help you overcome perfectionism and get shit done without burning out…

And you have unlimited personal support, a like-minded community and lifetime access to the program so you can do everything at your own pace…

Creating sustainable momentum just happens naturally. Even if you're someone who has struggled to show up for themselves and their business in the past.

Welcome to Part 4 of my 5-part Momentum Series. In this series I'm going to teach you how to create momentum in your business in just six weeks without burning out.

The cause of burnout isn't long work hours, poor work-life balance, demanding clients or rushing to meet a deadline. Being all-in on your business isn't what causes burn out either.

You can have momentum in your business without burning out even if you're balancing your business with a full-time job, caring for little ones, a health condition or all of the above.

That's why today's episode is all about the hidden cause of burnout.

When you know how burnout actually works, you won't be scared to create momentum in your business. Even if you've got a busy life to keep up with outside of your business.

I haven't burned out in six years, even though burnout used to be the bane of my existence. And even though I have a successful business and have three little ones to take care of when I'm not working.

I'm going to teach you my secret to never burning out again. All you need to do is hit play.

Welcome to Part 2 of my 5-part Momentum Series. In this series I'm going to teach you how to create momentum in your business in just six weeks without burning out.

And in today's episode, we are going to be talking about how to stop treating your business like a hobby. I'm going to help you identify if this is you, and this is without any shame or judgement.

And I'm speaking from experience when I share this. I used to treat my business like a hobby and that's all it ever was until I changed my mindset around it. So I really want to help you understand the importance of treating your business like a real business, including how that looks like and what to do so that you can start taking that approach.

Because if you are taking a hobby approach to your business, then you won't actually be able to create the full time business that you want to. It really is such an important mindset shift.

If that sounds like you, this episode is going to be so helpful. All you need to do is hit play.

Welcome to Part 1 of my 5-part Momentum Series. In this series I'm going to teach you how to create momentum in your business in just six weeks without burning out.

If you're feeling behind in your business or like all of the hard work you've been putting in is getting you nowhere, creating momentum is the cure.

When you have momentum you will find it so easy to stay motivated.

You will have tangible evidence that you're on the right track, your efforts are paying off and that you can one day have a business that supports you full-time.

And you won't have to work as hard because momentum will be able to carry your business forward when you aren't able to be there.

Having momentum is the secret to:

• being able to navigate hard times in your personal life without your business suffering
• taking laptop-free vacations without having to compromise on your financial goals
• feeling successful in your business, even when you aren't full-time in it just yet.

Tune into today's episode to learn all about the 5 common misconceptions that perfectionists have about momentum so that any resistance or hesitancy you have around creating momentum can finally dissipate. I cover everything you need to know about the difference between being behind and having momentum.

You can create the momentum you want in your business before the year's over.

Even if you're busy with a full-time job, little ones or parents to take care of, a health condition to manage, studies to complete or anything else. All you need to do is hit play today.

Perfectionists often struggle with taking action consistently and that has serious consequences in business. Consistent action is a critical part of any business's success and the cost of not doing that matters.

This is such an important topic to understand, which is why I'm sharing about it in today's episode. I want to make sure that if this is a problem for you, that you become aware of it and how it's affecting you and your business so you can do something about it.

I also want you to feel encouraged and supported as you listen in. This isn't about feeling ashamed or beating yourself up because you have this problem. Instead, this is about understanding the true cost of inaction and finding a solution that works for you in a way that is sustainable and empowering.

You can become someone who is productive, who does what is needed, and who is confident about putting yourself out there. I talk in detail about what this looks like, how to tell if this is going on for you, and what the solution is.

Ever since I started my blog in August 2013, building a six figure business has been a dream of mine. When my business crossed the six figure mark, I thought it would be the perfect time to chat through what it feels like to finally be here.

Like most people, I believed that having a six figure business would mean more happiness, more time and feeling more organised - but this hasn't quite been the case! I'm so grateful for where I am but also wanted to share what can happen mentally when we achieve our big goals.

If you're on your way to building a six-figure business, this episode is for you. I hope listening inspires you to continue goal-setting and reminds you that there's no need to rush because you'll always be on the journey.

Our perfectionist all-or-nothing mindset is what makes us rebel from our calendars. That is, unless you're planning properly as a perfectionist.

I used to be the person who couldn't follow through with my calendar for more than a couple of days. Yet no matter how much time I spent planning everything out, I kept rebelling. It wasn't because I didn't have what it takes to be my own boss. It was simply because I was unknowingly making some pretty big planning mistakes that were making my perfectionist mindset working against me.

In this episode I'm sharing 8 calendaring mistakes that are unknowingly causing you to rebel against your calendar. And I walk you through how Power Planning solves for each of them in the easiest and most practical way. If you want to be able to rely on yourself to follow through with your plans whilst having lots of flexibility and freedom in your week, this episode is for you.
