Grow Your Video Business 330: Overcoming Procrastination and Finding Your Path with Michael Gebben
Life doesn’t have a one size fits all solution, and neither does your business! Join me for today’s show with my friend Michael Gebben as we explore his massive success, and some failures as well, in his business journey. Michael breaks down the invisible brick wall that we all face - procrastination. There are some shifts in your mindset that can greatly help you overcome the things that continuously nag at your effectiveness.
Michael also dives into some interesting brain science that can help you find out how your brain works so that you can leverage your brain-activating activities and stop making yourself miserable by doing things that you hate. Truly understanding yourself can be the key to making the most out of this life and lead to true fulfillment!
Key Takeaways- Find the right path forward that works for YOU. Don’t fight to make yourself fit into someone else’s formula.
- Taking action that is quick, but sometimes imperfect, will help you overcome procrastination and achieve actual results.
- Don’t focus on avoiding what you don’t want, focus on pursuing what you do want and you will find more of it.
- Sometimes you need to slow down and reevaluate in order to speed up.
