Escaping the Preparation Zone: Why You’re Stuck Before You Even Start
Are you stuck…
Trying to start that new business, stop that bad habit, commit to the gruelling exercise routine you've created for yourself. Well, you may be in the Preparation Zone and no I don't mean a "work centre where meals are prepped and combined prior to being cooked," as Google may suggest!
The Preparation Zone is something I've experienced when trying to begin any new goal. I find myself spending far too much time in the preparation stage for that goal (i.e. taking a certain course, buying a piece of equipment, reading a certain book) or creating an impossible hurdle to beginning, such as changing the way I sound, all to simply begin. And after doing all of this, the only thing you really have is an outstanding bill to a vocal coach!
In all seriousness though, if you feel stuck with your goals and want to break the mould of procrastination and begin, this video may be of some help to you.
