About this listen
In this episode:
Are you stuck in an endless cycle of planning without taking action? In this episode of The Break Your Bullshit Box Podcast, we dive into the reason even the best-laid plans fail and how we use strategy as a hiding place. We discuss the second part of my Break Your Bullshit Box framework: Breaking Your Bullshit Box. In other words, understanding the gremlins and limiting beliefs that sabotage our follow-through. If you're tired of buying planners, creating perfect calendars, and never executing, this episode will help you break free from the strategy trap and start taking real action
Key topics covered:
- The reason planning feels productive but often leads nowhere
- The strategy trap: How we hide in planning to avoid action
- Understanding the "gremlins" - the voices that justify our results
- The difference between human behavior problems and logical solutions
- The importance of intention behind every commitment
- How to identify what's really holding you back from following through
Key Takeaways:
- Success doesn't come from the plan, it comes from the honesty underneath the plan about why it's failed in the past
- Clarity only comes through action, not through endless analysis and planning
- We can't solve human problems with logical strategic plans, we need to address the underlying beliefs and behaviors
- Planning can be a form of avoidance, making us feel productive without actually accomplishing anything
- Understanding your intention behind each commitment is crucial to breaking patterns
