I think where a lot of people get stuck is thinking, I have to change everything. You're saying you don't have to do what you've been doing. You can try in small, achievable, believable ways. My favorite takeaway from business school was the integration of these things that made the difference. The sum is worth much more than its parts.
Patrick McGinnis, creator of the term FOMO, and Greg discuss the anxiety we all sometimes feel, globally known as the fear of missing out. From its roots as a biological response to a term amplified in culture through social media, this episode helps us to understand how to combat this feeling through practical decision making, prioritizing what is essential, and turning FOMO into a positive mindset.
