Second last cause of procrastination is similar to feeling like you're you're afraid or that you you're not going to be good enough. And that's feeling like your self esteem has been shot. Maybe you had a bad day, maybe you've got like a bad review. Maybe you got some really harsh and unfair criticism, feedback. Maybe other things in your life aren't going so well. And you just feel like you don't have the self esteem to get this writing done.

Well, the advice for this is, again, similar to where you feel like you're afraid that you're not going to be able to get it get things done. If you feel like you don't have the right skills, the right the right attitude, the right X Factor, you're feeling like you just don't have the self esteem for this. I invite you to show up to write anyway. Because some really untalented writers, some really just incompetent people have written amazing books. They've delivered amazing speeches, they've invented incredible things. If you show up, and if you make an honest effort, then it doesn't matter how much confidence you have in yourself right now.

And it doesn't matter even if you're right, even if you don't have talent, I suspect you have way more talent than you giving yourself credit for. But even if that is true, that's okay. Because if you keep showing up and you keep making an honest effort, eventually you'll succeed. It's just a question of time. It's how you dismantle a mountain. It's how you eat an elephant.

It's how you do anything worthwhile. One step at a time. You keep showing up, and you only ever fail When you quit, so if you never quit, you never fail to keep writing
