131. Why We Know What to Do But Still Don't Do It
Description
It’s one thing to know what to do, but it’s a whole other thing to actually DO it.
This is a struggle that so many of my private clients – students and professionals – deal with. They have the information, they’ve been instructed on what to do … and yet, they still aren’t taking action.
For people with ADHD, this phenomenon is even worse.
There’s a reason why this is happening, and it might not be what you expect.
What You'll Learn:
- The reason you know exactly what to do but still don't do it
- The identity-based question to ask yourself instead of "do I feel like doing this right now?"
- How to make future consequences feel real enough to actually move you to act today
- 2 critical mindset shifts you need before taking action is even possible
- 3 practical strategies that close the knowing-doing gap immediately
