Lowering The Bar Saved My Life
from The Motivated Mind · host Scott Lynch
For years, I bought into the hustle culture lie: work harder, do more, and success will follow. But after cutting my schedule in half and focusing on fewer, higher-impact tasks, I discovered something surprising: slowing down actually amplified my creativity, focus, and results. In this episode, I unpack how lowering the bar, embracing slow productivity, and letting go of unnecessary expectations saved my sanity and helped me produce better work.
