Derek Cole argues you should stop waiting for perfect and start creating. He points to his own early show that people mocked, then loved, and to Zuckerberg, who executed fast instead of waiting for the perfect idea. Fear of judgment is the only thing stopping you.

You know, I'm thinking about what's holding people back and why they're not doing the things that they. They know they want to do and they can do. And it's because. I think it's mainly because they're scared of what people think. They're scared of what people think, and they're scared of being made fun of. And they're worried about what the wife says, what the husband says, what the dad or mom say if they're not doing it. You know, with the Ass Derek Cole show two years ago, like I said in episode 18, it was, you know, when I went to a conference, it was almost a joke about, I mean, people making fun of this, how to show they were actually doing it. So it was. It was. People tell me to my face, hey, it's a good idea. And then by my back saying, you know, what is he doing? It's kind of a joke. No one wants to see that about heating and air. And then the last meeting last month, you go in front of people and they say, man, it's a great success. I see what you're doing. I love what you're doing. I wish we could do it. How are you doing it? It's amazing. The shift within a couple years. And if I listened to what people thought about it before I did it, it would have never happened, because it's stupid. No one wants to see it. It's a waste of time. No one's watching these little videos. Sense, what are you doing? If I sit there and listen to it, then it would never get done. And it's kind of the same way with this vlog. Same thing's being said about this, you know, what are you doing? It's a waste of time. Stupid. No one wants to see you going to meetings or talking to a camera about what's going on in your life. Again, if I listened to them, it would never happen. I mean, it's kind of about depth, not width, but, you know, it's not a hundred or a thousand people watching it every single time. And one way to lose every time is to not do it, not execute. Just sitting there thinking about it. Hey, I had that idea for Facebook before Facebook. Well, we all did, but Zuckerberg actually executed against it, so he won. And that's really the point, you know, if you care about what people are saying, you're never going to start. And the problem with most people is they're not starting because they're scared. They want to hold the camera. They want to do this. I gotta have this. Perfect. Gotta have this. I gotta do. No, you don't have to be perfect. Just take the camera, take the phone like this, hold it to you, start telling the world what's going on, Sam.
