Good enough is finished
Decide what “done” looks like before you start.
Good for
- Perfectionism
- Endless tweaking
- Fear of handing something in
Why it helps
All-or-nothing thinking can block starting and finishing. A clear finish line makes the task smaller and kinder.
The full version
Before starting, write what “done” means in one line.
Aim for about 80%: useful, not perfect.
When you reach it, stop and send it.
Notice that nothing terrible happened.
