Micro Projects That Lead to Momentum
You:
I feel like I’m circling the same project over and over. I want to launch, but I never feel ready.
Me:
Totally normal. You’re not avoiding the work, you’re trying to make it perfect before you begin. That’s not laziness. That’s pressure.
Let’s lower it.
You:
Okay, but what do I even start with? A whole course? A service page?
Me:
Nope. Start with a micro project. Something you can finish in a couple of hours (or less).
Not because it’s “the final thing”, but because it’s movement. And movement builds clarity.
You:
Like what?
Me:
Try one of these:
A 5-bullet email to your list
A short blog post based on a link you saved
A 3-post series on one idea
A 1-page PDF resource
A 60-second video tip
A free mini-review or audit for someone
Rewriting an old idea you already started
That’s enough. Really.
You:
But will that actually help my business?
Me:
Yes, because it builds momentum. It proves you can show up. Publish. Deliver. Build trust. Make something real.
One post turns into three.
One email brings replies.
One video leads to a DM.
One tiny action makes the next one easier.
That’s how it starts.
You:
So I don’t need to finish the whole thing?
Me:
Nope. You just need to start a thing you can actually finish.Start small, on purpose.
You:
...Okay. I think I know what I’m doing today.
Me:
Exactly. Send it when it’s done.
