In this episode, Bill and Marty talk about how having too many meaningful projects can create a “log jam” that leads to overwhelm, stress, and sudden quitting. Using Martin’s seven projects as an example, they walk through a coaching process to get clear on the goal, spot what’s causing the backlog, measure progress, and make a realistic plan. They use the urgent/important matrix, factor in deadlines and inspiration, and show how calendar time-blocking and firm cutoff dates can help restore balance and reflect the “True You.”
