    Ep 371: How To Stop Putting Off Non-Urgent Tasks Nov 20, 2022
    Show notes

    Often in business, we have important yet non-urgent tasks - they feel new and unfamiliar to us and they don't have a set deadline. These tasks are easy to put off for later while we focus on other things that are more urgent.

    I share why perfectionists normally struggle with this - as well as how to get non-urgent tasks done in your business - in this episode.

    If you want to honour the deadlines you set for yourself (even when no one else is watching), this episode was made for you. Tune in today.

    Find the full episode transcript and show notes at samlaurabrown.com/episode371.

    In This Episode You'll Learn:

    • Why it's normal to put off new or scary tasks that don't have a deadline
    • The reason perfectionists work well with external deadlines
    • Focusing on not disappointing clients vs surprising and delighting them
    • Questions to help you become a more successful entrepreneur
    • What to do if you're scared of wasting effort on a non-urgent task

    Ep 370: For When You're Comparing Yourself To Your Coach, Your Peers or Industry Experts Nov 13, 2022
    Show notes

    When it comes to how you approach your business tasks, do you compare yourself to your coach or others who 'know better' than you? Does it feel wrong to do things your way, because it's not how the industry experts you look up to do things?

    When we compare ourselves to others, it often happens subtly and can influence how we work on our business without us realising it. This can include the projects we work on, the way we talk to clients, and so many aspects of our business.

    People say we shouldn't compare ourselves to others, but I know as well as anyone how tempting it is to try to fit in with what everyone else is doing in your industry. It's how our brains are wired.

    So if you find you're comparing yourself to others in business, now what?

    I recently coached a PGSDer on this and I want to share what I guided her through so you can do things in a way that's easy for you - without making yourself wrong for doing things your way.

    By the end of this episode, you'll learn what to do if you're comparing yourself to others who 'know better', why doing things the way others do isn't the 'best' way for you, and how to be open-minded and coachable while doing things your way.

    Find the full episode transcript and show notes at samlaurabrown.com/episode370.

    In This Episode You'll Learn:

    • What to do if you're comparing yourself to your coach or others who 'know better'
    • How to stop making yourself wrong for doing things your way
    • Being open-minded and coachable while doing things in a way that's easy for you
    • Why doing things the way I do them isn't the 'best' way
    • The difference between divergent and convergent thinking

    Show notes

    In today's episode, I share a chatty Growth Goal update for Quarter 3 of 2022. In quarter 3 I was in my first trimester of pregnancy with the twins and, thanks to a time audit of my Power Planning, noticed I was spending 50% of my time in busy work. But this quarter was still a big one for business growth and personal growth - and I share why in this episode as well as how much money the business made.

    In This Episode You'll Learn:

    • What my goal is for 2022 and how I've broken my quarterly milestones down
    • Why it doesn't freak me out that I'm 'off track' for my annual goal
    • Why I wouldn't hire myself for most of the roles in my business and what I'm doing about it

    Ep 368: [PGSD Enrollment Week] Why PGSDers Don't Get Overwhelmed (Even At The Busiest Times) Nov 01, 2022
    Show notes

    Overwhelm tends to be the emotional home for perfectionists. It stems from thoughts like:

    • I don't know what to do
    • I don't know where to start
    • I don't have enough time
    • I don't know if this will work
    • I don't trust myself to follow my plans

    And Power Planning solves for all of these - which makes overwhelming thoughts harder to have and easier to let go of naturally…

    Our PGSDers don't get overwhelmed - even at the busiest times.

    It's not to say it's never an emotion they experience but, after three months of Power Planning, it's one that no longer causes any problems.

    I share how Power Planning naturally dissolves overwhelm in today's episode, just in time for the final 2022 enrollment week for Perfectionists Getting Shit Done.

    If you struggle with overwhelm (especially when life gets busy), tune in today.

    • Why overwhelm tends to be the emotional home for perfectionists
    • The exact thoughts that cause overwhelm
    • How Power Planning makes it harder to have overwhelming thoughts
    • Why overwhelm isn't a problem for our PGSDers
    • How to avoid overwhelm even when life gets busy
    • How PGSD helps you get out of your own way in your business

    Ep 367: [PGSD Enrollment Week] The 3 Kinds of Accountability Inside PGSD Oct 31, 2022
    Show notes

    PGSD will have you doing the most important tasks for your business in a consistent, sustainable, productive and courageous way. This is inevitable when you follow the PGSD Process: to plan properly, follow through 80% of the time, rest without guilt and repeat.

    And there are 3 types of accountability inside PGSD that will turn your new-found productivity into something that's sustainable long-term:

    1. Self-accountability
    2. Peer accountability
    3. Expert accountability

    A lot of perfectionists are worried that if they become more productive and more successful then it won't be sustainable.

    The 3 types of accountability you get inside PGSD make it easy to become someone who's getting shit done AND to do it sustainably, long-term.

    You're smart but there's only so much that information can help you with…

    Accountability, coaching and support is what turns knowing into DOING.

    I talk more about the 3 kinds of accountability inside PGSD and how they'll help you get out of your own way long-term in today's episode.

    By the end of this episode, you'll understand why you aren't able to keep yourself accountable (yet) and how PGSD helps you change that for good with the 3 types of accountability you get inside my program.

    Ep 365: [PGSD Enrollment Week] How PGSDers Get Everything Done Without Burning Out Oct 28, 2022
    Show notes

    Perfectionists love the feeling of momentum…

    We love the feeling that the work we're doing is adding up to something and making a difference. We love knowing that the time we're spending isn't going to waste.

    What creates momentum is being able to take all of our business ideas, single out the most important one, trust that we're focusing on the 'right' thing and take action on that task or project until it's complete.

    What creates momentum is letting small bad things happen in your business (ilke an instagram bio that could use an update) so that we can stay focused on what truly matters and get that thing going.

    This is something our PGSDers become experts in.

    Thanks to Power Planning, they're able to finish the day - and the week - knowing that everything is done. And this is true even when they've had friends or family disrupt their plans, they haven't been super motivated and they've got a lot of different projects they're moving forward at the same time.

    So how do PGSDers get everything done without burning out?

    They no longer overestimate what their 'everything' is or underestimate how long everything will take.

    Instead, they focus on the needle movers and give themselves a realistic amount of time to complete each task (and add buffer time to their calendar so that underestimating a task is never a problem if it does happen).

    If you struggle to get everything done, this episode will help you understand how our PGSDers do it, and how you can do this too. Listen today.

    Ep 363: [Planning Series] Identifying Your Needle Movers When Everything Feels Important Oct 25, 2022
    Show notes

    When we're following planning advice that doesn't work for perfectionists, we struggle to know which tasks to prioritise. We have SO MANY ideas and we want to do them all, perfectly, right away.

    But we don't trust ourselves to pick the right tasks to focus on or to do them consistently. We also don't trust ourselves to handle the success, money and the attention that would follow…

    Because of this, we prioritise the familiar and easy tasks on our to-do list and lament the fact we don't have more time to get to the important marketing tasks we know we need to do.

    But once you know how to identify your needle movers, busywork and procrasti-learning are naturally replaced with self-trust and ACTION.

    That's why the fifth and final episode in my 5-part planning series is on how to identify your needle movers when everything feels important.

    By the end of this episode, you'll know which questions to ask yourself so identifying your needle movers is easy. You'll also have a new way of thinking about needle movers so that you don't feel so much pressure to pick the 'perfect' task or pressure to work on.

    In This Episode You'll Learn:

    • Why perfectionists find it so challenging to decide on their needle movers
    • 4 questions to ask yourself to help you identify your needle movers
    • A new way to think about needle movers so you feel less pressure to pick them perfectly

    Ep 362: [Planning Series] Never Burnout Again: Using Your Calendar As A Tool For Kindness Oct 23, 2022
    Show notes

    As a perfectionist entrepreneur who wants to make a meaningful contribution to the world, the kindest thing you could possibly do for yourself is to honour your potential, rather than protect it.

    We perfectionists get in our own way because we're scared to find out that our best isn't 'good enough'.

    We procrasti-work, overwhelm ourselves and burn ourselves out because we're terrified that giving a full, balls-to-the-wall effort might come up short - and that we will end up finding out we're unintelligent and unlovable.

    But when you're planning properly as a perfectionist, you'll naturally be using your calendar as a tool for kindness.

    Being kind to yourself as you plan is about doing the most important tasks in your business in a consistent, sustainable, productive and courageous way.

    Proper planning makes execution 10x easier and more effective - and dissolves resistance, overwhelm and procrastination.

    And if that isn't a recipe for reaching your potential, I don't know what is.

    In part four of my planning series, I share practical tips and advice to help you be as kind as possible to yourself with your calendar (because true kindness will make you MORE productive and successful, not less).

    If you often feel the urge to rebel against your calendar and plans, this episode is for you. Listen in today.

    Find the full episode transcript and show notes at samlaurabrown.com/episodeXXX.

    In This Episode You'll Learn:

    • The difference between kindness and letting yourself do whatever you want
    • Why being kind to yourself makes you more productive and successful, not less
    • Practical ways to be kind to yourself with your calendar during your work hours
    • Why being kind to yourself will automatically happen when you're Power Planning
