Why To-Do Lists Fail – And What to Do Instead

If your to-do list feels like a never-ending guilt trip or your weeks are packed but your progress feels stalled, this episode is for you.

Glory breaks down why traditional to-do lists don’t work and introduces a more powerful way to plan: needle movers—the high-impact, aligned actions that actually drive momentum in your business.

You’ll learn how to shift from reactive busyness to intentional leadership using Glory’s simple, proven Aligned CEO Method, which focuses on:

✅ Growth & Impact
