Is your ambition actually hurting you? In this episode of The Grateful Podcast, Jack Wagoner breaks down the dangerous difference between being lazy and being fragmented.
Most ambitious people aren't lazy—they are simply putting their energy into too many places at once. If you feel like you're working 24/7 but seeing zero results, you are suffering from fragmentation. Learn why "pressurized water" is the ultimate analogy for success, how the "metabolic tax" of multitasking destroys your brain, and why doing less might actually be the key to achieving more.
🚀 SPONSOR: This episode is brought to you by Magic Mind, the world's first productivity shot. Stop the fragmentation and get into flow.
