Overstimulation, task paralysis, and procrastination? Discover the neurobiological system of time management!
You call it laziness or a lack of willpower, but the truth is that your brain is simply overstimulated and in overdrive. You know that feeling when you have a list of important things in front of you, and your mind shuts down, and all you can do is stare mindlessly at the screen and scroll through your phone with a huge sense of guilt?
It's not a character flaw! In this episode, I show you how to break the vicious cycle of going from zero to 100 using a simple, effective system based on neurobiology and tips from Risa Williams' book.
