Getting Stuck

About This Talk

Everyone gets stuck now and then, and Chris says that’s perfectly natural. Beyond procrastination, he points to another cause: waiting for circumstances to be just right before making a change. He asks listeners to aim for generally okay instead of perfect, to get moving, and to trust that they’ll adjust along the way.

Key Ideas

• Besides procrastination, people get stuck waiting for circumstances to be just right before they move.
• Circumstances are rarely perfect, so aim for things to be generally okay and then go.
• Movement is the most critical part of change, and once you start, you’ll adjust and find your way faster.

“The hard part is starting, and once you start, you’ll make the adjustments.”
