You've been working on your freelancing plan for weeks (maybe months or even longer if you’re honest)... 

And you're still exactly where you were when you started.

That’s not uncommon →

Most beginning freelancers think they need a complete plan before they make a move. 

But even with a half-baked freelancing plan, you feel capable…

Because you are. 

But you’re stuck…

You’ve read the posts, watched the videos, saved the threads, and studied emails like this one.

Lack of information, you have not. 

So what’s holding you back?

→ Thinking. 

That big juicy brain of yours is trying to think your way into certainty.

Problem is…

thinking feels productive. 

It even looks responsible. 

And it feels a hell of a lot safer than doing the thing that might not work.

Smart freelancers are especially good at this because you can see the gaps in your plan.

Before you’ve even tested an idea, you know 10 reasons why it might fail. 

You can optimize an idea into paralysis (and give up on it before you even try). 

This is where intelligence turns into a shield instead of a tool.

You want to “figure it out” and keep planning, researching & tweaking until you’ll hopefully have the exact right steps to take. 

(Which is pretty much impossible with so much contradicting advice out there!) 

But you're trying to solve problems that don't exist yet.

And, contradictory to the logical brain, your plan can't get better until you put it in motion.

Progress doesn’t come from figuring it out in your head…

You only find progress when you take action.

Motion creates information, and information creates confidence. 

Most freelancers who are stuck think it’s the other way around.

So if you’re waiting to feel confident before you move, you’ve got it backwards. 

Confidence is the receipt you get after you’ve paid with action.

With freelancing, there’s no moment where you finally “have it all figured out.” 

And if that’s what you’re waiting for to take action…

Well I think you know by now that you never will. 

So you can take 1 step this week…

Or you can spend another week thinking about doing it. 

One of those moves you forward. 

The other just makes you tired.

Best,
Jamie
