[246] Fighting the Urge to Quit: The Real Struggle of Taking Action When You Don’t Want To
Description:Fresh off a whirlwind two weeks away, jet-lagged, and staring down a busy week, I didn’t feel like doing a thing—let alone recording this episode.
But here I am, showing up imperfectly because consistency matters. In this episode, I’m getting real about the days when resistance is loud, the couch looks extra inviting, and the ego is in full control.
I’ll walk you through how I pushed through those moments of doubt, tackled the non-negotiables, and kept my bigger vision in mind. This one’s for you if you’ve ever struggled to show up for yourself when you just don’t feel like it.
Key Takeaways:
Keeping It Real with Resistance: What it feels like when your ego is telling you to quit, and how to talk back.
Prioritizing What Matters: How I sorted through a long list of tasks and zeroed in on what would move the needle.
What Would Future You Do? How I use the “future me” approach to remind myself why showing up now matters later.
Done is Better Than Perfect: Why it’s okay to show up imperfectly, as long as you show up.
Small Wins Lead to Big Gains: How breaking tasks into small steps (and crossing them off!) can help you push through.
Personal Story:I’ll share the gritty behind-the-scenes details of how I got my non-negotiables done this week, despite all the resistance. Spoiler: it wasn’t pretty, but it was worth it.
Action Step:Next time you’re feeling stuck, try the 5-4-3-2-1 method: Count down, and on 1, take the first small step. I promise you, you’ll thank yourself tomorrow.
