Perfection Can Come at a Cost - 3 Proven Ways to Get Your Product Out There Faster Than a Usain Bolt

Are you an individual that constantly frets about perfection and doing things perfectly before releasing a new product or project? I'm going to share 3 effective methods to get your product out into the market!

No matter what project I was working on, it had to be entirely, completely perfect before I felt confident sharing it with the world. Unfortunately, this tendency results in far more projects failing to be completed and goals never fully being reached.

Because I was so rarely pleased with the end results of a product, these projects typically were left unfinished.

There were so many missed chances and huge opportunities I could have capitalized on, if I had only been willing to take a chance. However, as always hindsight is 20/20, I have overcome this problem.

I made the choice to do something about my overwhelming perfectionist tendencies, and if you find yourself suffering from a similar problem, consider attempting these three concepts in your life.

Try to let yourself go completely.

o No matter what project you are working on, you must learn to ease up on yourself and not critique yourself as hard. It doesn't matter if you are writing a new book, constructing a website, or even establishing your own business - move your project to a stage where you can release it and get its name out there.

o You need to let your product adapt a life all its own, and this can only be done by publicly making your product known in the world. First, although you may be absolutely terrified of dealing with your fear of failure, you are not running away.

o You must simply release your project and allow others to give their opinions, By doing this it will help you improve your initial model into something that consumers want and demand. Feedback is what drives innovation and improvements, and until you have this, you are only basing your project on your own opinions and viewpoint, which are not only bias and emotional, but likely incorrect.

When your product is actually out there, Others can give you proper feedback without being subjected to emotional bias and their feedback can truly provide a much needed breath of fresh air into your project.

From this point, you can now begin to strive for perfection. It is only after your project has been critically examined by others, revealing flaws and shortcomings that you can improve your idea to its final, perfect stage that you intended in the first place.

Try this 3 step strategy the next time you find yourself boxed in by your own perfectionist tendencies. Likely, you will find that everyone's definition of perfection is actually very different from yours.

There Is More to an Eye Bolt Than What Meets the Eye

When you have a job to do you must be certain that you have the right tools. When an eye bolt is part of your supply needs make certain that you have the right one. Here is quick explanation:

When you are doing a straight line pull, then a regular lifting eye bolt is what you will need. This is the anchor point for the connection between a wire rope and proper rigging apparatus that is fixed to an ending point. The galvanized steel allows for less corrosion to the bolt which could compromise the strength and durability of the steel.

An eyebolt that is constructed from stainless steel and has been welded is often formed from marine grade steel that can withstand harsh, wet, marine environments. The welding allows it to be employed as a heavy duty anchor point, connecting a wire rope or other rigging hardware to a surface or intended object.

If the stainless steel eye bolt is not welded, then its use should be limited to lighter duty purposes. It's made from the same marine grade steel so it can withstand the elements; however, it is considered a less expensive anchor point and the working load limits specified by the manufacturer should be considered.

If your job requires any type of angular lifting, then a shoulder eye bolt is what you will need to safely complete the job. The shoulder, a type of "collar" between the eye and the shank, helps maintain the bolts strength. When you are involved in an angular lift, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding placement of the bolt, threading and washers for maximum functionality.

As with the regular eye bolt, the material of a shoulder eye bolt can be galvanized or stainless steel to match the environmental conditions of your job.

The Bolting Horse - Is There Any Way to Prevent It?

The bolting horse may be the most frightening thing a rider can experience. It's a very dangerous situation when a horse blacks out and runs for his life, he may run into traffic, lose his footing at high speed, run over a cliff or run you into a tree. The unfortunate truth is that horses become runaways for natural reasons. They're prey animals and in the wild they escape to survive. They can't take chances either. While a human might want to evaluate a situation before deciding to flee, a prey animal can't wait to get attacked by a mountain lion to find out if the threat was real or not. In the wild, the choice to flee or stay is made by the alpha of the herd. The problem with riding, is that this instinct exists but there can be situations when the "herd" is you and your horse and something scares him enough for the escape survival instinct to take over, and in an instant he's a runaway.

There is one practical technique we can use when the situation occurs, but the best thing to do is minimize the chances of it happening in the first place. Let's talk about that first. You can't prevent a horse from bolting, but you can take steps to minimize the risk. Now that you understand why horses bolt in the wild and the role of the alpha horse, it makes sense that a back to basics training approach that makes you the clear leader of the herd is essential. We want the rider to assume the role of the alpha in the herd, so that the horse will look for guidance from the rider to determine whether or not a situation is scary enough to warrant escape (of course it rarely is).

Train your horse so that he will listen to you and your commands. This begins with a round pen training program. Don't just take the horse to the round pen to run off steam, do it for communication and to establish leadership (read my article on horse round pen training for details). Training in the round pen, if done correctly, will establish a solid foundation of trust, respect, and leadership. These are all factors that reduce, but can't eliminate the risk of bolting.

You can build on that foundation with several other exercises, doing them with the intent of having your horse pay attention to you at all times. One is simple leading, walking your horse around and throwing in stops and leading from different positions (including driving - to reinforce dominance). Lunging a horse is also an excellent training exercise - if done properly. Do not use lunging to wear down a horse that you think is "hot". That's ridiculous. Use lunging to teach communication and get the horse listening to you. He needs to listen to your commands while lunging, this reinforces the foundation established in the round pen and will carry over to riding. Stopping and slowing down need to be as much a part of your lunging training as is trotting and cantering around in circles.

Spend some time riding in a training mode instead of just going out to ride. That is make up some exercises that require the horse to pay attention.

Two more exercises that have a practical aspect other than establishing leadership are dropping the head and flexing. Dropping the head is important for promoting submission and relaxation. Flexing teaches the horse the one rein emergency stop. Flexing should be started on the ground and practiced in the saddle, every single time you're with your horse. A horse that flexes well is far less dangerous because you can crank his head around and usually bring him to a stop. I know it works because I've used it on the trail. But for it to work it has to be automatic, both for you and your horse. That means routine practice. You can also work on desensitization to make your horse more calm and confident around uncomfortable stimuli like loud noises.

All of these exercises and training tips are great but they must be done on a routine basis. Don't "train" your horse once and then stop and expect him to behave well on the trail. Ultimately you can't "prevent" bolting but you can lower the risk and be prepared if it happens.
