Follow Through

by Jeff on July 24, 2010

They say that admitting a problem is the first step on the road to recovery. Well, I’m not sure who “they” are or if “they” even know what “they’ are talking about.

I have a problem. There I’ve admitted it. I have a problem. Oh you probably need to actually name the problem in order to fully admit having it. My problem is I have terrible follow through. I’m not sure if it actually effects my golf swing since I haven’t played golf in years. I know it effects about every other area of my life.

I can start projects like nobody’s business, I mean I can get out of the starting gate and getting going. It’s finishing that’s the problem. For some reason I get bogged down and bored. And then another startup seems way more interesting and finishing just never seems to happen.

Part of the problem lies in the fact that when I’m in the middle of a project I begin to wonder if anybody else will find it interesting or will I have wasted my time. Oh the thought of failure is paralyzing at times. So instead of having to deal with failure, I just never complete it. If it’s not finished its not really a failure, right?

So in another attempt to finish something, I’m going to commit to posting something everyday on this blog. Maybe just the daily action of doing it will help me get over my problem.

And since I have an undiagnosed case of ADD (no offense intended or implied to those individuals who actually suffer from this condition) the subjects will be changing probably on a daily basis.
So strap in, because this could get exciting or you might need a seatbelt to keep you safe if you get bored.
