Today’s hustle culture tricks men, myself included, into jamming more activities into our day to become more productive, more successful, and more fulfilled. 

But this relentless pursuit of self-development opens up a void in our life. The more things we shove into our day, the less time we have to slow down and reflect on what actually matters. 

In other words, adding more productivity hacks doesn’t result in significant improvement. It does the opposite: It drives you to the verge of burnout. 

Nothing made this clearer to me than when I went on a 24-hour solo retreat. During these 24 hours of solitude, I realized some crucial things about my business, relationships, and life. And I want to share the template I used, so that you can do the same in your life if you’re feeling burnt out and unfilled. 

In this episode, I reveal: 

• Why being alone, free from external influences, unlocks more meaningful change in less time 
• How doing less makes you more fulfilled 
• The exact template I followed during my 24-hour solo retreat that resulted in immediate transformation 

And more, including: 

• 6 simple questions to ask yourself to make 2024 more successful and fulfilling than 2023 (4:53) 
• Why listening to your own thoughts instead of relying on external influences (like books and podcasts) unlocks meaningful change—faster (6:12) 
• 8 activities to dabble in when you’re feeling burnt out to refuel and revitalize you (7:11) 
• How long hikes clear out all your “brain gunk” and help you find mental clarity (even when you’re up to your neck in stress) (9:07) 
• Why “feeling” your way to self-development instead of “thinking” your way there unleashes significant improvement (and how to do this) (11:29) 
• The “building and optimizing” mistake of self-improvement that keeps you stuck, unfulfilled, and on the verge of burning out (15:41) 
• Constantly in “Go, Go, Go Mode?” Here’s why doing less makes you feel more fulfilled (19:41)
