About this episode
In this episode, we break down why your brain always underestimates how long things take—and how to finally plan your life without the constant stress. You’ll learn the psychology behind the Planning Fallacy, the power of the 10% contingency rule, and why long-term thinking creates better results than rushing. From Kahneman’s thesis study, to quitting jobs, to seven-year dreams, to sustainable weight loss—this episode shows why patience beats pressure every time.
