You're Not Unprepared, You're Afraid to Start | Lewis Howes

This bonus episode is brought to you by ChatGPT. If you've ever started a big project, you know one of the hardest parts is figuring out where to begin. You might have research in one place, notes in somewhere else, feedback coming in, and a bunch of ideas you're trying to make sense of. And ChatGPT is moving beyond answering questions. and helping people get real work done.

Later in this episode, I'll share a simple workflow that shows how starting with a clear goal and the information you already have can help turn scattered ideas into meaningful progress on your biggest projects. Today I want to talk to you about something that I still experience from time to time. And I also think a lot of people who are very ambitious experience this as well. You have something important in front of you. You have a big project, a conversation that's important, a business that you want to start, some side hustle, or maybe like a big presentation that you have to give or an opportunity you've been waiting years for.

And instead of starting it, instead of getting on that task, you freeze up. You freeze and you tell yourself that. I need more time. I need more information. You need to think about it a little bit longer.
