ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Lindsey was called "high-functioning" by a client this week, which got her and Paul talking about why some people just don't do the work. From squirrel syndrome to blame culture to chasing instant results, this episode is about mindset, consistency, and why you're the product of what you did twelve months ago.
Paul unpacks why so many of us are driven by how we feel in the moment rather than by what actually moves the needle, and why chasing quick wins rarely leads to anything near fulfilment.
Together, they discuss:
➡️ That sometimes, people just don’t do the work.
➡️ People tend to respond the way they feel and develop a blame culture.
➡️ Immediate gratification, and the impacts this has on business owners
➡️ Importance of mindset in business, and the role it plays.
➡️ We are a product today of the work we did twelve months ago.
➡️ Being passionate about what you do, and the variations on this.
They also get into passion, and why it looks different depending on the person and the business.
Finally, they remind us that being grounded and doing the right work consistently will always beat waiting to feel motivated. Speaking of which, that's exactly whatthey're digging into next episode.
