Are you feeling like you're spinning your wheels on your goals, watching your motivation slip away with each passing day? You're not alone. Many of us fall into a common trap that transforms our inspiring goals into heavy burdens, leaving us disconnected from our initial excitement and ready to give up. In this episode, we dive into the surprising reason behind this goal fatigue and share a powerful mindset shift that will revolutionize how you approach your aspirations.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • The hidden psychological trap that's making your goals feel like a burden instead of a source of inspiration
  • A simple but powerful shift in perspective that will reignite your motivation and make your habits enjoyable right now
  • How to reconnect with your "why" while still making consistent progress toward your dreams

Whether you're building a new habit, pursuing a career change, or working on personal growth, this episode will help you transform your relationship with goal-setting. Stop feeling overwhelmed by your aspirations and start enjoying the journey – your goals are meant to lift you up, not weigh you down.
