06/04/24 • 23 min
Why is change SO hard?!!!
You can read all the books, try the hacks, and journal a full novel, yet STILL feel miles away from the transformation you crave.
The truth is, you're missing one fundamental first step. It’s something tiny yet incredibly powerful, a step that can skyrocket your personal growth.
I'll be honest with you—it's not glamorous or easy. It doesn't come with a catchy hook. It requires serious work. But if you commit to this step fully, you WILL see the changes that have seemed impossible for weeks, months, or even years.
In this solo episode, I’m diving into all the details and the behavioral science behind why this step works so well, and why other strategies (like willpower and motivation) often fall short.
In this mindset episode, you'll discover
- Why willpower is NOT a good first step toward self improvement
- The myth of habit making
- How to leverage what you're already good at to boost where you struggle
Listen for a personal growth secret that’s stronger than any motivation!
