Why you keep procrastinating the things you know would build your business

You've bought the courses. You know the strategy. You want the business you actually started this journey for. And still you keep procrastinating the exact things you know would get you there. Instead you keep scrolling for "research purposes," check out the next new strategy, make another plan, tweak your sales page or do the laundry.

It's easy to assume you "just" need more discipline. But there's actually six patterns running the show when we're procrastinating, and you can't change something you can't see. This quiz shows you which ones are active for you right now, and how strong each one is.

10 questions. About 3 minutes. Pick all the answers that sound like you.

Hey, I'm Claudia

I work with solopreneurs who have the skills but keep procrastinating the work that would actually grow their business.

For years I earned my money auditing hundreds of early stage startups and helping them grow. I could spot the bottleneck in every business but my own. That job was always meant to be temporary, just until my own businesses could carry me. Instead I kept procrastinating the exact things I knew would grow it. ALL. THE. TIME.

I'd start, talk myself out of it, and end up quietly furious that I wasn't getting any closer. I did build four businesses, but it took me a painfully long time, and none of it felt like the life I'd dreamed of when I went self-employed. By the beginning of 2026 I'd had enough of what felt like procrastinating my life away, so I went all in on finding out why tf I couldn't do the things I knew I should be doing.

What I found are these six patterns. As long as you don't know them, feeling stuck makes you feel like something is wrong with you or your business. Once you do, you can see what you need to keep going again. It's hard to spot your own from the inside, however much you know. So take the quiz and find out which ones are keeping you procrastinating.

Now you know what's running the show. But knowing isn't doing.

Maybe this result didn't tell you anything new. Maybe you've known for a while what's in your way and just needed someone to remind you again. The problem is: Knowing isn't doing. You know the strategies, you know what you should theoretically be doing, and on Tuesday morning and still win.

That's because patterns don't show up one at a time. They feed each other, so if you only work on one, the others are still sitting right there. How exactly are you supposed to hold yourself accountable and push through the boring parts of a plan you're 100% sure is the way to go while you're also scared of what happens when you actually follow it? You can't. And you can't think your way out of it either, not when it's all happening in your own head.

I know you think you should be able to do this alone. I thought so too. But it's a bit like driving with the handbrake on: you only notice how much it's been holding you back once someone helps you release it.

If you're done letting this loop hold you back

You have the skills, the knowledge and the ideas, and you still can't get yourself to do it. I've been there for a painfully long time.

Identifying exactly what was keeping me stuck, getting the fix I needed in that specific moment and having someone by my side when I was hitting the roadblocks was THE one thing that got me further than anything else I've tried.

That's why I built the Momentum Sprint, and why I'm inviting you to work on this together.
