That call didn’t go your way? NEXT. The relationship stalled? NEXT. The mistake keeps replaying in your head? NEXT.

This is about stopping the bleed, restoring order, and intentionally reinvesting your resources into what actually matters.Get the NEXT x Meaningful Few Worksheet here:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TIgurJR_1riMml0ddU6lctV4g8T1Ws0pag8umv_p_M8/edit?usp=sharing George’s newest book is available!

Hi. My name is George.And I do too many things.In this landmark 2,500th episode of LifeBlood, George Grombacher reflects on the quiet force that shapes modern life: more.More commitments.More projects.More noise.More responsibility—often without a clear decision.Building on the confession and recovery framework introduced in Episode #2500’s companion conversation, this episode explores why “more” never stabilizes on its own, why subtraction feels so uncomfortable, and why meaning does not emerge naturally—it must be protected.Using examples from bureaucracy, leadership, and everyday life, George explains why capable people so often become diluted—not from laziness or lack of discipline, but from saying yes too often to things that never deserved their best.If you feel busy but restless, productive but diluted, this conversation offers a way to reclaim focus, dignity, and meaning.George’s newest book is available!
