This is part 4 of my 5-part series on how to *actually* stop procrastinating. In this episode you’ll learn how to create ‘positive time pressure’ so you can get your best work done without burning out. If you’re anything like the perfectionist entrepreneurs I work with, you work well under pressure. But there are 3 big problems with this: You’re constantly exhausted or burned out You push off the most important things because there’s no pressure to get them done You have to create a business that feels like a job in order to be productive Let me teach you how to create ‘positive time pressure’ so that you can become a true high performer. That means being able to work well under pressure AND being able to work well without it.  In this episode (part 4) you’ll learn how to develop the skill of saying you’ll do something and then actually doing it - even when it’s not urgent and no one else knows about it. This is what all successful entrepreneurs have in common. To perform at your best as an entrepreneur, you need to be able to perform even when there’s no pressure. Anyone can develop this skill. Me and my clients do it by using our Power Planning to create what I call ‘positive time pressure’. The beautiful thing is you don’t even need to be thinking about ‘positive time pressure’ when you’re Power Planning. Power Planning creates ‘positive time pressure’ without you needing to think about it so you can become a true high performer and get shit done without the stress, pressure and burnout. The biggest needle movers for your business, like starting a podcast or posting consistently on social media, are never going to *actually* be urgent.
