Manage episode 518318835 series 2844495
Why do smart, successful people feel trapped in constant busyness?
In this episode, Dorie Clark — author of The Long Game — joins Kwame Christian to reveal why thinking long-term feels almost impossible in a world that rewards urgency.
They explore the psychology of busyness, how scarcity rewires our decisions, and what it takes to find courage, patience, and joy in the process — even when the world keeps screaming “faster.”
In this episode:
Why “I’m busy” has become the new humble brag
The emotional roots of scarcity and overwork
How to build meaning instead of chasing more
The courage required to think long-term
What AI and technology mean for the future of communication
