๐Ÿš€How to deal with pre-launch anxiety on PH? ๐Ÿš€

Hi everyone, Perfectionism has always been a double-edged sword for me. Before every product launch, a saying is always in my mind: โ€œThis isnโ€™t good enoughโ€. Looking forward to hearing advice on how to say goodbye to this haunting feeling. ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ

I feel you Sebastian. I try to see it this way: We are launching something all the time. While this is our first Product Hunt launch, we have already launched multiple versions of our product, features, experiments and will continue to do so. No matter the result of the PH launch, we will surely get some feedback and learn something to improve for the next one. Fingers crossed for your launch!

@jana_schellong You're so true. We always have lessons whether we fail or succeed. Fingers crossed for your launch! ๐Ÿฅ‚ ๐Ÿ’

Haha this is easier said than done, but try to remember a Product Hunt launch is far from make or break! I'm sure there are plenty of products that had "bad" launches that went on to be super successful โ€” and vice versa! I've lowered my pre-launch anxiety by creating a comprehensive checklist of everything I want to do beforehand to set ourselves up for a good launch day. And I try to remind myself that if I do all those tasks, the rest is really out of my control!

@jonathan_nass You are absolutely right, sometimes we know what we should do, but the ability to control our minds well is not for everyone. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Btw thanks for sharing ๐Ÿ‘

Right there with you about a month out from a launch. Hope it all went well for you.
