Have you ever… Signed up and forgotten to show up?
Manage episode 521276837 series 3684782
We all do it — sign up for courses, workshops, or resources that promise to solve a problem or spark inspiration… and then never actually do the work. In this episode, I’m exploring why that happens, the psychology behind it, and giving some gentle permission to ease the guilt.
Key takeaways
- Why we sign up for courses, workshops, webinars, and resources we never finish
- How “future-self thinking” and “illusory progress” can cause problems
- Why doing the work can feel uncomfortable or scary — and why we avoid it
- Reframing guilt: it’s okay not to start or finish everything
- Practical ways to notice patterns and focus on what matters
