What does it mean to 'unclog the drain' in your art business?

Unclogging the drain means identifying and removing all the self-limiting beliefs, BS, and procrastination that’s blocking your progress. This includes beliefs like ‘I can only launch when everything is perfect’ and countless other mental obstacles. Until you clear these blockages, you can’t effectively work on the other aspects of building your business. It’s the necessary first step because these limiting beliefs are what cause hours to turn into days, days into weeks, weeks into months, and months into years with zero constructive progress.
