Cross the Finish Line: Five Steps to Overcome the Hurdles to Completing Your Projects
Finally! A guide to help you complete your professional and creative projects.
You’re an idea genius, generating concepts for new stories, projects or products. If you had a dollar for every good idea, you’d be a billionaire. Imagine what you’d have if you finished things – money, satisfaction, kudos, recognition….
But your good ideas are all worthless if you don’t focus, follow through and finish.
If you’re like the hundreds of creative people I’ve coached, you’re in love with the idea phase of the creative journey. This is understandable – new ideas are electrifying, full of promise and possibility. You and your imagination float free and life in the idea lane is thrilling. But the finish line is unknown territory.
Help is here to guide you through the entire process, from inspiration to completion. I’ve written Cross the Finish Line! Five Steps to Leap Over the Hurdles to Completion, an e-book that will allow you to become a repeat finisher rather than an idea genius with no tangible rewards to your credit.
Successful athletes, authors and businesspeople have learned what it takes to leap over the inner and outer hurdles to success to cross the finish line again and again. They know this simple key to success:
It’s not what you start, it’s what you finish.
It is possible to become a serial finisher. I’ve coached clients to the finish line many, many times. My clients and I have:
Mounted art shows
Wrote ‘the end’ and finished books
Launched web sites and blogs
Self-published books
Landed agents and book deals
Launched businesses
What are you itching to finish?
This process works for any project. It helps you overcome the fears that prevent you from getting close to, let alone crossing, the finish line. Are you ready to finish your:
Book
Short story
Book proposal
Business plan
Body of art work
Home repair or renovation projects
Other easy-to-avoid things like: taxes, legal documents, decluttering projects.
I’ve put it all in my e-book, Cross the Finish Line! Overcome the Hurdles to Completion. This resource will show you how to follow the footsteps of other creative people who have experienced the joy of the finish line and the confidence waiting on the other side.
In this guide to finishing, you will recognize the inner and outer hurdles to completion and be relieved to see that there are solutions for them.

This process works for anything you’ve been avoiding. In the e-book you will:

Make a plan that works according to your time, money and energy budgets

How many years have you been avoiding the finish line? With the practical and easy-to-follow steps in my e-book, you can save years of wishing you were a completer. You’ll gain the great satisfaction and confidence that comes from finishing your creative projects.
It's time to change the old story of being someone who rarely completes projects and get your brilliant ideas across the finish line!
