Can creating tension actually help you reach your goals faster?

In this episode, we unravel the idea that progress doesn't come from getting comfortable with discomfort, but from embracing tension as a catalyst for transformation. Using the metaphor of the bow and arrow, we'll help you harness the energy of positive tension and propel yourself towards your goals.

Discomfort is overrated, what you need is more tension!

ACTION STEP FROM THE EPISODE:
Decide on one goal you're going to aim for outside of your current experience/expertise. That's what create the positive tension. Then choose one action you can take today to create positive momentum towards your goal. Use our free habit tracker to build a consistent habit around your new action.
