872 - How to focus when you want to do everything
About this episode
In this episode, we explore the alluring and often overwhelming desire to do it all. We start by acknowledging that we all have the capability to do anything we set our minds to, but being capable and being good are two different things. We often find ourselves envious of others who excel in a particular task or craft, which can send us down a rabbit hole of excitement and inspiration, only to lose interest when the next shiny thing comes along.
So why does this happen? Where does our need to constantly do more come from? We delve into how societal pressure to be productive and constantly improving can contribute to this cycle, but we also recognize the importance of pursuing things we're interested in and finding what we love. However, it's crucial to understand the difference between being interested in something and it being for us.
