Get you site out there

“Ohh, it´s not there yet, or I have to fin­ish this one thinge here…” Have you ever heard some­thing sim­i­lar? I have, it was me before I launched my site.

I dont know why but I´ve always been like this. Maybe Seth Godin hit the nail on the head with that Qui­et­ing your lizard brain thing. It´s taken me years of prac­tice to get over this type of deal (some­times). Always think­ing a lot and not doing. In fact I´m still doing this with my music, shit! But I can give some insight with this web­site and how it came into being.

Like all great peaces of art (I dont mean that) it was hard work. I some­times get the impres­sion from peo­ple, and I do this too, that great peo­ple that have suc­ceeded in their field came to do that by shear luck on raw nat­ural tal­ent. Like Tiger Woods could drive the ball 300 yards when he first got a club in his hands. No it was hard work for him, and then he enjoyed the fruits of his labour, a lot !

But I post­poned launch­ing it for weeks and weeks cause I never thought it was ready. Finally I just said fuck it and launched the damn thing. It was sup­posed to be a soft launch, I wasn’t gonna tell any­body about it while I fixed the rest of the things that bugged me. Need­less to say I was quite shocked when it got into Best Web Gallery and the vis­its sky rock­eted. But noth­ing would have hap­pened if I would have con­tin­ued think­ing about launch­ing it and never launched.

What I´m try­ing to say is just do it! Dont think too much, dont let the fear of fail­ure stop you from try­ing new stuff. Dont let the fear of what other peo­ple think of you stop you from doing your best. We always do our best and it´s good enough for the world in it´s entirety. If we fail, we just try again.
