Has anyone ever called you lazy? Have you ever called YOURSELF lazy? I sure have! 

For years I thought I was just lazy because I couldn’t keep commitments to myself, couldn’t follow through, and couldn’t move forward with my goals. 

Does that sound familiar? If it does, you’re not alone! And guess what? It’s not your fault! 

Yup. You read that right. Guess why? That “laziness” you struggle with is all thanks to a little thing called decision fatigue. We are faced with a bazillion choices every day, and each one drains our energy just a little bit. And boy, does it add up. 

So that’s what we’re talking about today!

So that’s what we’re talking about today! 

Here’s what you’ll get in this episode:

• How our daily decisions wear us right the hell out. We might not even realize we’re making so many decisions each day, but we are! 

• Why eliminating those little decisions can help you save energy for the BIG decisions (You know, the ones that actually change your life.)

• How I set up my day to sidestep decision fatigue and be more creative. 

• Some amazing passages from one of my all-time favorite books. Seriously, this book changed my life! (That’s where I first  learned about decision fatigue, btw.)

• How to become a decision minimalist and some ideas for little decisions you can take off your plate.

• How to decide which decisions deserve your energy. 

• My approach to business minimalism and how to lazy-proof your business.

If you feel tired and lazy all the time and like you can’t stick to your goals, don’t beat yourself up. You’re not lazy, you’re just exhausted!

I struggled with this for years until I figured out that my creative brain was just tuckered out from making so many decisions. That’s when I scaled back, took some stuff off my plate, and started to make some real headway on my goals. 

I also teach this concept in my program, Rock Your Business, because I know business doesn’t has to be stressful to be successful.

Decision minimalism is like a miracle cure for laziness!
