Urgency used to mean something. A fire. A phone call in the middle of the night. Now it sounds like notifications, red dots, and emails that say “just checking in.” Nothing is actually wrong, and yet everything feels immediate. This is why urgency has become our default setting, why calm feels harder to access, and why your nervous system doesn’t know how to stand down anymore.

New here? I’m Scott 👋 I walked away from $1.7M in equity to chase my entrepreneurial dreams. Bold or stupid? Still TBD. Now I make videos about mastering your mindset, building better habits, and actually enjoying the process. No fluff, no guru nonsense, just philosophy, psychology, and a few jokes about dodging existential dread. Please subscribe so my wife doesn’t make me go back to a “real” job.
