“I’m too busy.”
“I’ll do it tomorrow”
“I don’t know how.”
Are you making too many excuses right now to actually get the important work done?
The common excuse I hear most is ‘I don’t have time for that‘ which is my biggest pet peeve.
Why? Because it’s simply not true. Everybody has the same amount of time in the day, it is how you use it, that sets you apart from others.
After listening to and observing others I’ve been meeting lately, it seems many of us, including myself, have a couple of lingering excuses that we’ve become a little too comfortable with and need to get rid of.
In addition to excuses, in this podcast I focus on the fact that no one cares about your failures.
So you need to give yourself permission to take action, and imperfect action at that, and not fear & failure.
Instead be proud that you took that starting step or even leap towards your dreams.
Quoting from an excellent article by Kelly Exeter:
Dreaming big is usually hampered by fear and thoughts of ‘what will other people think?’ And then of course, there is always ‘how would I even make that thing happen?’
Today’s Fresh in Fifteen episode is that swift kick in the butt that we all need to get our motivation back on track.
To make sure you take action, I’d like you to write down in the comment section below the excuse that you are giving up today and the action that you are going to take instead.

This is absolutely one of my favourite podcasts. The content is very helpful, whether it’s the weekly interview episode or her ‘Fresh in 15’ show, and Natalie’s energy and enthusiasm for entrepreneurial freedom truly shines through. It is very inspiring and opens your eyes to things you might not have previously considered. I almost never miss an episode and have listened to several of them multiple times. Highly recommended!
