Activation Energy: The Missing Skill Behind Every Unfinished Goal

Listen In

About This Episode

I’ve been thinking a lot about why we have powerful ideas and dreams… and then just let them die. In this episode of Life Lessons in Hindsight, I unpack what really happens when inspiration strikes and why so many of us never act on it. You will learn about this idea of activation energy (yes, a little chemistry throwback!) and explain how that concept can help us understand what it actually takes to get from vision to action. I’m sharing practical ways to build momentum, stop self-sabotage, and start believing in your ability to grow. If you’re tired of sitting on ideas and are ready to bring them to life, one small step at a time, then this episode is for you. 

Topics Discussed

• Why we psych ourselves out of pursuing our ideas
