Listen Later

What is the biggest obstacle to movement? It’s not fear or laziness—it’s Overwhelm. When the gap between where you are and your big Direction feels too vast, your mind panics and freezes.
In this episode, we introduce the solution: The Process Method. This is the structured, repeatable engine for consistent forward motion, even when clarity and motivation are nonexistent. It exists to manage overwhelm by demanding only tiny, non-threatening steps. We break down the three interlocking, low-effort components of the method:
The Next True Step (NTS): The smallest, most feasible, forward-leaning action you can take right now, honest to your current Capacity Rhythm.
The Containment Window: A strict time or scope limit (e.g., "I will work for 20 minutes and stop") that assures your mind the risk is contained.
