Maybe three on a good day. It’s not “I need a nap” tired. It’s “I know my calling, but I still can’t do it” tired. Because we’re human, we blame ourselves. We think it’s discipline, grit, or a flaw we should’ve fixed by now.   What if the gap between vision and action isn’t about your character, but your capacity? You have big dreams, but you’re running on limited energy. Today, let’s discuss how upgrading your nervous system can align your calling with your ability to act.   Timestamps: (00:58) - You’ve Got the Vision. So Why Isn’t Your Body Cooperating?
