What Are You Putting Off?
Dear Uncommon Leaders,
It's a new month! March brings not only a new season, but another opportunity to work towards your goals!
Be intentional, Leaders. Have an uncommon week!
This Week's Question:
What are you putting off?
This Week's Challenge:
I’ve been putting off an important project for a few months now. Not because I don’t care, but because I wasn’t sure where to start. Some of the details were fuzzy, and honestly... I let the lack of clarity freeze me.
But here’s what I’ve learned:
Clarity often comes after action—not before it.
This isn’t the first time I’ve put something off.
Whether it’s making a tough decision, having a hard conversation, or moving on from an employee—procrastination can sneak in. And usually, I don’t have a good reason for the delay.
Sometimes it’s fear.
Sometimes it’s uncertainty.
Sometimes it’s just good old-fashioned avoidance.
Your challenge this week:
Identify one thing you’ve been putting off.
Then ask yourself: Why?
- Is it truly not worth doing? Then eliminate it.
- Or is it something hard, but important? Do it.
Progress is rarely made by doing what’s easy. It’s made by tackling what we’ve been avoiding.
Take the first step. Start small if needed. But start.
Let’s go be Uncommon.

LET'S GO BE UNCOMMON!
