    ATG 169: Who’s Afraid of the C-Word? (Commitment)

    ATG 169: Who’s Afraid of the C-Word? (Commitment)

    What if my myriad goals signify creativity rather than chaos? In my latest podcast, I explore the common dilemma of having too many goals. I outline the four stages of goal achievement— Dream, Plan, Do, Review—underscoring how boundless imagination thrives in the Dream stage but falters with commitment. Fear of choosing the wrong goal and wasting time looms large. Drawing from personal experience, I confess my struggle with commitment, fearing the loss of subscribers and creativity. I stress the importance of small commitments to build momentum, urging you to confront your fear of commitment and unlock the rewards of focused pursuit.
