Episode 3184:

Leo Babauta guides us through the psychological labyrinth of self-sabotage in his article on ZenHabits.net, revealing how intelligent individuals often master the art of convincing themselves to avoid necessary actions due to fear. Babauta provides a robust strategy for dismantling these persuasive rationalizations, offering practical tools to uphold commitments to personal growth and meaningful work.

Quotes to ponder:

"Smart people are very good at creating super persuasive arguments for why they shouldn’t do the thing they’re fearing doing."

"Everybody has a plan until they’re punched in the face."

"You need to intentionally practice in this, every day, so that you get better and better at overcoming the resistance and not collapsing when hit with fear."
