The review can be during week two.
The review can be during week three where you go, this is not working or it's not big enough or I'm already bored of this.
I'm already bored of this.
Anybody who's done a long project, hopefully you have some checkpoints where you go, yeah, it's worth it or it's just not worth it.
I need to do something else.
Even if it's a little bit profitable or even if I'm getting some attention for it, this isn't what I want to do.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And the traps are so funny and obvious when you look at them.
So the most obvious one is dreamers get stuck dreaming like they have a thousand ideas, zero actions, and they have a really hard time progressing to the plan.
They don't want to pick the wrong thing.
They're always brainstorming.
And the challenge is like your imagination is bigger than your calendar.
It'll always be that way.
Your calendar is a fixed, stable thing that's existed the same way for like 900 years.
And you bring this infinite imagination to it and you go, I got to try to fit it all in.
And it's hard to leave some dreams in the dream stage.
Yeah, see, the reality is you're not supposed to do, in my opinion, 100% of your dreams.
And if I hold myself to 100%, I never move forward.
But if I give myself permission to go, I wrote down way more things than I'll ever do.
