Is Focus Fluff Killing Your Progress?

from Bounce Back Better By Hilary Saxton · host Hilary Saxton

Are you moving but not actually going anywhere? This week on Bounce Back Better, Hilary Saxton tackles focus fluff: the gap between thinking you're on track and actually making progress toward the thing that matters most to you. Using a story involving a white suitcase, a Brisbane airport escalator, and a very unhelpful husband, Hilary breaks down what distraction really costs you and what's actually sitting underneath it. Spoiler: it's not a time problem. It's not an information problem. It's fear, dressed up as busyness. This episode is a straight-talking reminder that getting unstuck doesn't require a new system or a perfect plan. It requires a decision. What you'll learn: What focus fluff is and why it's keeping you stuck Why information overload is not your actual problem How fear disguises itself as productivity and research Why following someone else's path won't get you to your destination How to make the decision that actually moves things forward Timestamped highlights: [03:57] The airport escalator story that explains everything [07:47] Why distraction is just fear in disguise [00:26] The one question that cuts through focus fluff Connect with Hilary: https://hilarysaxton.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
