Listen Later

Why do some goals rocket out of the gate and then flat-line, while others look dead for months before exploding overnight?

In this episode we unpack the two shapes that secretly govern almost every skill, habit, and business:

  • Logarithmic Growth - early dopamine hits, long plateau
  • Exponential (Compounding) Growth - silent slog, sudden take-off

You’ll learn:

🤔📉 How misunderstanding your curve fuels frustration and premature quitting

🚀🧊 Fast-Start Illusion vs Iceberg Illusion—how to spot each one

🔄🎯 A three-step framework to sync effort, emotion, and expectations with your curve

🏋️‍♂️💰🎨 Real-world examples from fitness, investing, and creative work

🛤️🔧 Tactical ways to switch curves - or squeeze new gains from the one you’re on

Stop measuring progress with vibes and start using math. Your curve isn’t just a graph; it’s a roadmap.
