If you’ve been overthinking everything lately, or stopping yourself before you start - today's episode is for you.
Because sometimes what’s holding you back isn’t a lack of information, it’s having too much of it. Too much analysis, too much self-awareness, too many reasons not to start. . .
So in this 12 minute episode, we're doin a little pep talk - and talking about why being a little delusional might be exactly what you need.
In this episode, we cover:
✔️ Why overthinking and high self-awareness can quietly keep you stuck
✔️ The difference between ego-driven delusion vs. grounded self-belief
✔️ What “optimism bias” is, and why successful people use it (whether they realize it or not)
✔️ How being “realistic” can become an excuse to stay small
✔️ Why you don’t need confidence before you start
✔️ Real-life examples: fitness, career moves, creative projects, and hard conversations
✔️ Why trying (even if you fail) always moves you forward
✔️ today's feelgood thing
If you’ve been waiting to feel ready, certain, or confident before making a move… this episode is your nudge to do it anyways.
