Finish

Give Yourself the Gift of Done
Book • 2017
In 'Finish: Give Yourself the Gift of Done', Jon Acuff addresses the common struggle of not completing what one starts.

He identifies perfectionism as the primary barrier to achieving goals and provides counterintuitive strategies to overcome it.

Acuff suggests cutting goals in half to make them more achievable, eliminating secret rules that hinder progress, and emphasizing the importance of having fun in the process, which he argues can increase success by 43%.

The book offers insights and practical advice on managing perfectionist tendencies, avoiding procrastination, and maintaining a focus on completion rather than perfection.
