115: #115 Choosing Your Challenges in Business (And Making the Right Choice)

Ever wondered why some habits stick easily while others feel impossible? In this episode, I’m unpacking the real reason behind that — and how understanding yourself better is the key to making lasting change. Let me tell you — quitting smoking and drinking? Surprisingly easy for me. But daily exercise? That’s a whole different story. It got me thinking: some things are harder than others because of how we are wired. And that’s the same in business. Your strengths, your struggles, your neurodiversity — they all play a role in how you build habits and reach goals. In this episode, we’re diving into what it means to choose your hard, the difference between input-hard and output-hard tasks, and how to manage your energy so you don’t burn out trying to force your way through something that just isn’t right for you. We’ll explore: The power of self-awareness in goal setting What it means to choose the right kind of challenge The role of neurodiversity in habit-building How small, consistent action leads to big, sustainable success Why saying no is essential to protecting your energy This one’s for you if you’ve ever felt like change should be easier, or if you’re ready to build better habits that actually feel achievable — in life and in business. 🛠️ Helpful Links: 🌀 Download the free guide: Feeling Stuck 📖 Read my book 💬 Work with me I’d love to hear your take on this — what’s your “hard,” and what habit have you nailed (or not)?
