Shiny business syndrome is a momentum killer —the belief that the ‘next’ business, idea or creative project is the “one” destined to be a success and you should quit what you’re doing. Here’s how this works: You’ve committed to one thing but along the way —you get an idea: This idea seems better. This idea seems easier. This idea seems exciting. But the question we must all ask is: Is this chasing another ‘high’ of starting —a convenient distraction from the main path? In this Quick Hit, I'll share why chasing something new can be a form of distraction —and how to ensure you don't fall into this trap along the way to achieving your goals.

Freedom —it's the endgame, right? It's why we seek goals, chase ambition and do the habits and rituals every single day. But what if there was a way to experience tomorrow's freedom now?
