Boss Hatch - Entrepreneurs in the Making

If you can’t bulldoze that final 20%, don’t become an entrepreneur

by Richard Millington on October 12th, 2007

laddertothesky.jpgThe end is in reach, the bulk of the work is done, and there’s only the minor details left to see it through. Or is there? These minor details are usually the final 20% of you’re project. It’s a tedious, time-consuming, chunk of work outstanding.

  • It an essay that needs rewriting and proof-reading
  • It’s a fantastic event that needs a 5000 word evaluative report
  • It’s a successful PR campaign which needs clippings pulled in and sent in a scrapbook to the client
  • It’s a completed website needing graphical tweaks and coding modifications
  • It’s the final draft of a book which still needs a promotional campaign
  • It’s a completed computer game that needs to be rechecked for bugs
  • It’s a house renovation needing some cleanup and rewiring

Bulldozing through boredom

Have you experienced many final 20%s? You probably have.

Can you stare at the same block of text, design, code, house renovation you’ve been staring at for months, and motivate yourself to push it through to completion?

This is where you need to zone in and bulldoze through it. Stalling here, even for a day, can be crucial to the success or failure of what you’re doing. Take the time to tediously comb through the details (running your own business was never going to be all fun right?) and get it right.

It’ll be worth it.
