There’s a competition raging for your attention—and most people are losing without realizing it.In this episode, we break down how modern life drains your headspace through distraction, overstimulation, and unexamined commitments. Drawing on Blaise Pascal’s warning and the Meaningful Few framework, this conversation challenges the myth that more is better—and introduces the Headspace Audit, a simple tool to reclaim your attention, reduce noise, and realign your life across the six areas that actually matter.This isn’t about productivity.It’s about defending your clarity.Get the Headspace Audit here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HBK9vqp9X3ZuEQmtLL9bC_4-frUmEtrxpVWP_MwdF8c/edit?usp=sharing George’s newest book is available!

We have a complicated relationship with pain. We avoid it, delay it, and try to outsmart it—yet somehow end up choosing more of it in the long run.This episode explores why comfort is so seductive, why procrastination feels rational in the moment, and why pain is unavoidable no matter what we do. The real question isn’t whether we’ll experience pain—but which kind.You’ll hear why too many choices exhaust us, how daily renegotiation drains time and energy, and why removing choice altogether can be the most freeing move you make.This conversation introduces the idea of “Zero Options”—a simple but demanding approach to money, wellbeing, relationships, and peace of mind that replaces willpower with systems and execution.Pain now, or pain later.Structure, or regret.The choice is simpler than it looks.George’s newest book is available!

Potential isn’t meant to be fulfilled. It’s meant to be preserved.Most people think potential is something you’re supposed to cash in.Fulfill it.Realize it.Arrive.But what if that way of thinking is exactly what causes people to peak early—and quietly decline for decades afterward? Potential isn’t meant to be fulfilled. It’s meant to be preserved.This is about capacity, desire, voluntary discomfort, and why the real war of life isn’t success vs. failure—but becoming vs. arriving. If you’ve ever felt restless despite “doing well,” or uneasy with the idea of settling into a final version of yourself, this episode is for you.Because the saddest life isn’t the unfinished one.It’s the one that decided it was done.George’s newest book is available!
