Show Notes:
So often we aim for a standard that just doesn’t exist.
Are you waiting for your course to feel ‘finished’? Today we are going to talk about one of my favourite sayings: Progress over perfection.
Course creators often wait for something to be finished or perfect or done before releasing their course to their students. Unfortunately though, that is a standard that is often unattainable – mostly because it is a standard that is only in YOUR head. The standard of finished is completely different for everyone.
Another important thing to think about when considering ‘perfect’ or ‘finished’ is that a course isn’t designed for you – it is for the person using it – and we don’t know if it is any good until someone else is actually using it. Until it is in the hands of the user, it is just theory about what is finished or perfect.
Action Steps:
If you have a course that is part built or not finished, take a step back and think about what needs to be done. Write a list of everything you think still needs fixing or finishing – be as thorough as possible. Next, look at that list and decide which tasks are essential and which ones have a work around that could get your course out and circulating earlier.
Where can you look for the concept of progress over perfection.
I want you to have a great course, but I also know that most people are striving for a standard that physically does not exist. What is the fastest way you can get your course out and live?
