Obstacle Buster Worksheet (for soloprenurs)
Are you stuck, stalled, or struggling to finish a project?
Does it feel like you’re working hard, but not making any progress?
We’ve all been there, and it’s beyond frustrating. Sometimes it’s even demoralizing.
You start out excited about a project and tackle your to-do list with enthusiasm, but after a while, that passion starts to wane.
Maybe the client keeps changing their mind, perhaps you’re having a problem sourcing an essential component. Whatever the reason, you’ve stopped making progress, and it’s costing you time and money.
Plenty of experienced people get stuck. Throwing money at the problem might help, but it’s just as likely to mask the underlying cause instead of providing a solution.
So what do you do when it feels like you can’t move forward?
You hit the pause button and review the situation.
Why Projects Stall
Sometimes it’s obvious and you can easily identify the primary problem, but more often than not, stalled projects result from a collection of issues.
1. Unclear goals
2. Lack of resources
3. Lack of required skill(s)
4. Unrealistic deadlines
5. Scope creep
I designed the Obstacle Buster Worksheet to help you do three things:
- Diagnose the cause(s) of the delay
- Identify possible remedies
- Determine best outcomes
The worksheet has 12 questions divided into three categories: current status, common challenges, and resolution.
Each of these questions address specific issues to hel you quickly find the clarity you need to make a critical assessment.
Sometimes the solution is as easy as outsourcing a task or saying “no” to a client’s change request. Other times, it’s better to cut your losses.
This information will put you in the best position to see the big picture and make informed decisions to get your project back on track.
