Love Your Work

142. Aspiration Procrastination, Self-Discrepancy Theory, & How to Take Action on Your Dreams


Listen Later

It's no surprise that we procrastinate on things that we don't want to do. But why do we procrastinate on things we do want to do?: Our hopes, dreams, and aspirations.

I call it aspiration procrastination, and there's a fascinating theory from psychology that can help you understand why you put off your dreams, and what you can do about it. I'll talk about it in this week's episode.
