#140 - Why Your To-Do List Never Gets Done


Listen Later

Do you ever look at your to-do list and feel instantly behind? Like no matter how much you cross off…there's always more waiting?

Do you notice the same tasks showing up week after week? The ones you want to get done…but just never seem to start?

And have you ever wondered why a simple list of tasks can create so much guilt and stress?

If you've ever had those moments, you're definitely not alone — and that's exactly what this week's episode is all about.

Most accountants think they have a discipline problem or a motivation problem. But what's actually happening goes much deeper — and it's not your fault.

This episode is especially for you if:

  • You rewrite the same tasks over and over
  • You feel behind before the day even starts
  • You procrastinate on anything big or unclear
  • You think "I should be better at this" way too often
  • You end your day wondering where the time went

You're not broken. Your brain has just been given the wrong system to work with — until now.

I truly think this episode is going to help you feel more understood — and more hopeful — about getting things done in a way that finally feels doable.
