Podcast Show Notes:

Ever feel stuck staring at a decision that should be simple, while the industry keeps flying past you at 80 mph? You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re human. And in this re-shared message, we break down why procrastination sneaks into your shop and your life, and how one clear decision can flip the switch on momentum fast.

We dig into how our brains are wired to protect us, not push us forward. That’s great when you’re avoiding danger, but not so great when you’re deciding on ADAS training, EV safety procedures, hiring your next tech, or finally fixing that workflow bottleneck everyone complains about. While you’re thinking it over, the world doesn’t pause. OEMs update procedures. Insurers shift expectations. Your team waits. Pressure builds.

I share a personal story about waiting too long on a decision and losing years I can’t get back. The relief didn’t come from the perfect answer. It came from deciding. From there, we walk through a simple framework that works in real shops: decide, observe, adjust, and keep moving. No perfection required.

We also connect mindset to real results. Better hiring choices. Cleaner processes. Higher profit. Stronger leadership when things get heavy. Tools matter, but mindset runs the shop. Coaching comes up as a force multiplier, not a magic fix, but a way to shorten the learning curve and stop going it alone.

If you’re tired of “fixing to get ready,” this episode is your nudge to move.

3 Key Takeaways

1. Waiting feels safe, but it quietly costs you time, energy, and opportunity.
2. Decisions create clarity. Clarity creates momentum.
3. You don’t need perfect answers, just the courage to choose and adjust.

Press play, pick one decision, and move forward today.
