Sprinting may be the best solution to overcome the fear of working on a creative project, according to Seth Godin. Sprinting through projects or ideas for projects allows the individual to not think about all the smaller details of the project, but more on the project as a whole. Godin's example of how he sprinted during a project is this:
"I went to my office spent the next 20 hours rewriting every word of text, redesigning every package, rebuilding every schedule and inventing a new promotional strategy. It was probably 6 weeks of work for a motivated committee, and I did it in one swoop. Like lifting a car off an infant, it was impossible, and I have no recollection at all of the project now.
The board reconsidered and the project was back on again. I didn't get scared until after the sprint. You can't sprint every day but it's probably a good idea to sprint regularly."
