Is It Alignment, Or Is It Avoidance?
Manage episode 492702969 series 3327267
Have you ever found yourself repeatedly pushing a task to tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow again? That inner voice questioning if you're just being lazy, or if something deeper is at work? Today we're exploring a question I've been pondering for months: the subtle but crucial difference between alignment and avoidance.
While there's been a beautiful movement toward simplicity and ease in recent years (which I fully support!), sometimes we can confuse genuine misalignment with simple avoidance of challenging work. I share my recent experience with postponing follow-ups on opportunities that looked perfect on paper but something inside kept holding me back. This led me to develop a powerful diagnostic question that cuts through confusion.
And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)! All you have to do is:
- Leave a review of this podcast.
- Email a screenshot of your review to [email protected]
Simple as that!
