Most people don’t get stuck because they lack discipline — they get stuck because they’re trying to choose the perfect path before they take a single step.

In this solo episode, I talk about why it’s not only okay to change your mind — it’s a sign you’re actually paying attention. As you gain more information, you should be allowed to move in a new direction. The hard part isn’t “setting intentions.” The hard part is getting honest about what you actually want… and what you’ve been chasing out of habit, ego, fear, or old versions of yourself.

I use a simple mountain-climbing metaphor to break down how people waste years over-preparing, trying to avoid picking the “wrong mountain,” and how iteration beats perfection every time.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why changing your mind is growth (not inconsistency)
• The difference between “intention” and actual honesty
• Why it’s easier to chase goals than to admit what you really want
• The “mountain peak” problem: reaching the top and realizing you picked the wrong thing
• Why people don’t start: fear of choosing wrong + perfectionism
• Why over-preparing (gear, research, planning) becomes procrastination
• The real power move: iteration and learning by moving

Key takeaways:

• You don’t need certainty — you need a first step
• Clarity is earned through reps, not thought experiments
• Perfectionism always costs more (time, momentum, confidence)
• The longer you wait to start, the harder starting becomes
