Zen Habits Podcast S2 Ep09 - Fearless Ritual & the Creator's Process
Many of us find ourselves trapped in a cycle of avoidance and procrastination when facing projects that matter deeply to us. This resistance often stems from a mix of fear, uncertainty, and a lack of effective strategies to navigate these challenges.
