Listen "#447 | The Dark Side of Consistency: When Sticking to the Plan Holds You Back"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textMaster the rhythm, not the race. In today’s episode, we pull back the curtain on the dark side of hustle, discipline, and showing up no matter what. From shame-driven routines to the hidden cost of overperformance, we’re breaking down what real sustainability looks like when your capacity changes day to day. It’s raw, honest, and probably not the “motivation” talk you’re used to hearing. This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters. Hit play and learn how to build consistency that fuels you instead of breaks you.Book Suggestions:Grit by Angela Duckworth - https://amzn.to/4o6xeMX Atomic Habits by James Clear - https://amzn.to/42ZojVj The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy - https://amzn.to/4oda5bU Succeed by Heidi Grant Halvorson - https://amzn.to/47FF1eS Mindset by Carol Dweck - https://amzn.to/3L11daG The Art of Impossible by Steven Kotler - https://amzn.to/4noLSy8 Stealing Fire by Steven Kotler - https://amzn.to/4nIfMO5Here are the related episodes, each one builds on today’s conversation:#411 | Why Most People Fail Long-Term—And How to Win - https://apple.co/4hzFToW #429 | How NOT to Feel Like a Mess About Yourself - https://apple.co/47oQJcpEvolve Together Experiences:🤝 Out of the Mud (OOTM) - “Breaking Free From Social Pressures” - https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/IykObX8eR7ixJaQ-qqZogw#/registration📽️ Insightful films, meaningful growth.
