About this listen
Most people don’t fail because they lack discipline or desire.
They fail because they misdiagnose what’s happening inside their own brain.
In this episode, Dr. Dee Poskas reveals why “being stuck” is not a personality flaw, why doubt is meant to slow impulsivity — not stop progress — and how disappointment quietly shapes risk, leadership, and decision-making. If you’ve ever felt busy but stagnant, driven but blocked, or successful but unsatisfied, this conversation will change how you see yourself — and how you move next.
