"Let me know if this episode has helped you"
Ever feel like your day gets hijacked the moment you try to do something for yourself? We dig into self‑procrastination—the subtle habit of trading your real priorities for chores, pings, and busywork that look productive but leave your goals untouched. Using a down‑to‑earth lens and lived experience, we unpack why smart, caring people delay what matters and how to reclaim your focus without guilt.
You’ll hear a simple, memorable tool we call tunnel vision glasses: an imaginary filter that shortens the path from intention to action. By observing how single‑task focus works in real households, we show how to walk past visual noise, stop taking detours, and finish the work that actually moves your life forward. We also challenge the control reflex—doing unasked jobs for others to feel in charge—and replace it with self‑ownership, clearer boundaries, and a kinder inner voice.
Expect practical steps you can use today: pick the top three tasks that would ease the most pressure, complete one, reward yourself, repeat. Visualise your day before it starts, anticipate distractions, and choose your route anyway. Learn to celebrate small wins so your brain links follow‑through with real satisfaction. If you’re tired of resentment, invisible labour, and goals that live on the back burner, this conversation offers a clean, compassionate reset.
If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review—it helps more people find the tools to focus on what truly matters.
