#451: Procrastination-Proof Leadership: Jon Acuff on Action, Feedback, and Getting Unstuck

In Episode 451 of the Follow 2 Lead Podcast, Tony Miltenberger sits down with bestselling author and speaker Jon Acuff for a high-energy, practical conversation about overcoming procrastination and stepping into action.

Jon shares insights from his latest book Procrastination Proof, breaking down why we get stuck and how to build systems that keep us moving forward. From feedback and accountability to knowing when to say yes (and when to say no), this episode is packed with tools leaders can apply immediately.

Tony and Jon explore how great leaders simplify complexity, create momentum, and stay consistent even when motivation fades. They also dive into the importance of feedback, surrounding yourself with the right people, and building rhythms that protect you from self-sabotage.

This conversation is both encouraging and actionable—perfect for leaders who are ready to stop overthinking and start moving.

Coaching Question: Where are you procrastinating—and what system do you need to put in place to protect you from you?
