EP53 - The 80% Rule

Sheyaf Hashim & Kareem Mostafa


There are a lot of great ideas, projects, or artists that haven't seen the light of day.

Procrastination is one of the reasons for this. procrastination doesn't only happen due to laziness,  many procrastinate due to perfectionism. They wait for the time when they can dedicate or reach 100% . And mostly this never happens. 

In this episode, we discuss the  80% rule. we talk about why it's better to focus on getting 80% good at something, and then eventually getting to 100%,  more like its better to be 80% good at something than 0% at nothing. 

This concept is inspired by Dan Sullivan's 80% approach.
