"I just need more time.
But I don’t really know what I’ll do with it.”
Seth Godin says that price is the refuge of the marketer who has run out of things to say.
Similarly, time might be the refuge of the creative who can’t gather themselves to start working on the difficult tasks.
The voice inside our head makes us feel that we would be ready tomorrow. That if we attempt this task later, somehow it would be better. There is no logic behind that voice, but it is very powerful.
Instead, having less time can be a wonderful ally to get things done without getting stuck in the cycle of perfectionism and rationalisation.
