Excellent reminder. I have a project that I have been procrastinating with and I really want to submit it, but getting that professional polish completed has held me back.

I’m going to start on the pieces I need to finish and get moving forward!

"My hesitation, my feeling of not being ready, is my signal to take action."

That's going on my wall! Geez, I'm the poster child for this syndrome!

I just started writing as exploration this morning, and within just over an hour, I had a plan for a gorgeous paid subscriber bonus on here, content themes for the next 7 weeks, and a post to tell people about it! I had no idea I was going to do that, and if I hadn't sat down to write this morning with no idea what I was going to write about, I wouldn't have any of that! I've been stuck for ages thinking I didn't have anything to say, so not writing, but as usual, the act of writing has given me the ability to write. It's some sort of beautiful alchemy!

I'll share the post about it later.... watch this space!
