I actually recorded this episode many months ago, then left it and did nothing with it for ages. Which is ironic given in this ep we explore the idea that achieving things, changing behaviour and basically being human- is really, really hard. I'm human, just like you. I struggle to achieve what I want to achieve sometimes too- so let's explore this together.

In this episode I talk about:

• Johan Hari's book Stolen Focus
• How the modern world is setting us up to fail in many ways when it comes to our attention and focus.
• How we can actually use the psychology of behaviour change to help us to do the things we want to do.
• Why self compassion (as I always say) is actually the basis for this cycle and what helps us to unlock our full potential.
• What is the 'first step' in changing behaviour?
