one minute blog: let it rip

This is the One Minute Blog (OMB). An email of good stuff for you to think about over the weekend, that takes about a minute to read.

Today’s word count: 190

It took me 49s to read this.

Sorry guys, I’m too busy today - I can’t write my usual One Minute Blog post.

Or can I?

Maybe it’s not all-or-nothing.

Maybe I could write something simple. Something small.

Maybe something is better than nothing.

Am I letting perfection be the enemy of progress?

My piano teacher asked me for business advice, I told her she should start a youtube channel.

What if she took the thing she’s insanely good at (playing piano), but instead of just teaching 1 person at a time, teach millions of people every month on youtube.

“That’s a great idea. I’m going to do that.”

That was 4 weeks ago….still no channel.

The idea costs $0. It would take her 30 minutes to start her channel. Maybe another hour to make a video.

What’s the holdup?

She’s overthinking it. (Just like I almost over-thought today’s blog)

Our desire to do it well stops us from doing it at all.

Nike was right. “Just do it”.

The million dollar word there is “just”. As in, “just freakin do it already”.

Stop thinking about it. Stop talking about it.

Progress over Perfection.

Let it rip.
