"When I make just one more pass through this book, then it will be done."
Let me give you a small piece of advice: you will never be ready. Completely.
That book? It'll never be completely ready, in your mind. You just have to do your best work and then send it out. Then, start on the next project.
That woodworking project? No amount of sanding or honing will make it absolutely complete. Again, in your mind.
You have to start. And then finish something. And then start again on the next project.
Sure, there are plenty of stories of famous people (thinking Tolkien here) who worked on a project for years and years. What would've happened if Tolkien would've not spent that time on Lord of the Rings and instead published much more in the world of Middle Earth?
Start your project today. Finish it. Don't dwell on it. Finish.
Then start on another project.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
