How to Survive a Project That Never Ends

When your to-do list is longer than your waking hours and working around the clock isn't closing the gap, you've hit a scale mismatch — not a productivity problem. This episode explores the neuroscience of overwhelm, why your brain registers constant effort as failure, and what to do about it. We cover the dopamine trap of finite-project thinking, the one percent rule for all-or-nothing brains, and why scheduled breaks aren't surrender — they're part of the system. If you've ever felt like you're bailing the ocean with a bucket, this one's for you. Episode #898831 — open it directly at myweirdprompts.com/898831
