302 I Why Being 'Boring' Might Be Your Superpower I The Obvious Choice Podcast
Manage episode 455779994 series 2557148
Welcome back to The Obvious Choice podcast, where today we're continuing to workshop a chapter from my next book. If you guys don't know, I actually started this podcast for an entirely selfish reason - to write better books. Everyone says you should create content for your readers and listeners, but nah, this one's for me. I'm stoked that you're along for the ride though, and I hope it's fun for you to see these books basically get built in real time.
Once The Obvious Choice comes out in January (which you can pre-order now), you'll start seeing this process unfold. Today we're diving into exploration and how to add more of it into your life. Get ready to workshop this with me, and maybe let's figure out together why doing nothing might be worse than doing something boring.
