Maybe you shouldn't operate your company if you can't comply, then. The entire point of the GDPR is elevating privacy as a priority. If that means companies that can't or won't compy can't operate, so be it. People always claim to be pro-privacy, and that means putting privacy above commerce, in the same way that a restaurant that can't or won't meet safety and sanitation regulations shouldn't operate.

If safety and sanitation regulations were as heavy-handed as GDPR there probably wouldn't be too many restaurants.

The point of GDPR indeed is elevating privacy as a priority. Good intent however doesn't automatically entail that the implementation has been equally good.

The EU Justice Commissioner only recently has been quoted that she herself could implement the rules required by GDPR. At the same time the European Commission's very own website isn't even remotely GDPR-compliant. That's just arrogant and condescending.
