The Wholistic Productivity Podcast #18 The One Thing Every Productivity Plan Needs to Succeed
It doesn’t matter how great your planner is or how detailed your productivity strategy may be—if you don’t take action, none of it works.
In this episode of the Wholistic Productivity Podcast, Chris LeBrun shares the one non-negotiable strategy every productivity system depends on: taking action. Drawing inspiration from Mel Robbins’ “5 Second Rule” and decades of experience in fundraising and goal-setting, Chris explores the difference between dreaming and doing—and what holds most people back from launching their ideas.
You’ll learn:
- Why taking the wrong action is better than taking no action
- How fear (even fear of success) keeps us stuck in planning mode
- A simple brain hack that breaks through hesitation
- What NASA, Thomas Edison, and the Wright Brothers can teach us about productivity
Whether you’re a planner addict or a creative stuck in strategy mode, this episode will inspire you to stop waiting and start doing—today.
