Bright, Shiny Object Syndrome

Ask Me Anything, Segment 10

(Prefer to read instead of watch?  Scroll down below the video player for a summary.)

It’s really easy to get sidetracked by the next big thing or the next bright, shiny object.  It’s critical to stay focused and finish projects before moving on to the next one.  You can find the entire Ask Me Anything series on my blog or YouTube channel under Ask Me Anything.

If you prefer to read instead of watch, here are the notes for this video:

  • Bright, shiny object syndrome is a funny name for a very real problem faced by entrepreneurs.  We can get distracted by the next new idea before we take time to finish what we are working on.
  • New ideas are especially tempting to entrepreneurs because we love new ideas and like to take action and try new things.
  • One of the things that separates the superstars from the middle of the pack is the ability to persevere and finish projects even when they get boring.
  • Learning can be a huge bright, shiny object.  Make sure to take the time to implement what you learn before moving on to learning something else.
  • One of the things I can help you with is finishing what you start.  I can help you to know exactly what to be working on.  I would love to be one of the people you learn from.  Click on the green “Send Me More” button below the video, enter your name and email address, and I’ll send you tips and strategies just for solopreneurs.
