The Psychology of "I'll Start Tomorrow": Why You're Stuck


Listen Later

Most people don't fail because their goals are impossible — they fail because they wait for a date on a calendar to save them.

In today's episode, The Science of Starting Now: How Micro-Actions Beat Motivation, we're breaking down why New Year's resolutions, "I'll start Monday," and waiting for motivation actually train your brain to delay your life. When you put change off, you create more stress, more shame, and more pressure… and that pressure becomes the reason you avoid doing anything at all.

You'll learn the real psychology and neuroscience behind procrastination:

  • Why your brain sees "future you" as a stranger

  • How planning gives dopamine without progress

  • Why perfectionism secretly keeps you stuck

  • How delaying decisions destroys self-trust

Most importantly, you'll learn how small actions right now can completely rewire your identity, reduce anxiety, and build the version of you that actually follows through.

No more waiting for Mondays. No more waiting for motivation. Today counts.

If you're ready to ditch shame-based resolutions and start living the life you want now, this episode is your wake-up call.

🎧 Listen, take the micro-action challenge, and share this with someone who keeps delaying their own potential.
