Listen "Ep.2: Don't put gravel in your shoe before going for a walk."
Episode Synopsis
I first heard the saying, "Don’t put gravel in your own shoe before going for a walk," in an Ali Abdaal video, and it stuck with me. We often create imaginary roadblocks, solving problems that haven’t even happened yet. In this episode, I’ll unpack how this metaphor has played out in my life — starting with a memory of my dad. He was always quick to encourage me to “just get started” instead of making excuses. With his practical mindset as my guide, we’ll explore why we hold ourselves back and how to stop getting in our own way. Life has enough real obstacles — no need to add gravel.
