Perfectionism and procrastination: The Course That Never Ends.

Now the part that decides whether I am being fair to anybody. The course was fine. It wasn't a scam, the teaching wasn't thin, and I wouldn't want a refund. I learned how to structure a multi-tier offer page from it, and how to break a deliverable down so a buyer can see what they're getting, and I still use both of those every month.

From chapter 6: The course that never ends

What if your page comes out empty because you've never paid for any of it? Then your ledger still exists and it is the same exercise. You've been teaching yourself from free material for four years, so put hours in the cost column instead of money, and I would guess the total is worse rather than better. Free is not cheap. Free means nobody ever had to justify it to you.
