108. Three Things You’re Overcomplicating About Getting Things Done (That Should Be Simple)
Episode 108
Humans love to complicate things, because this means that we get to spend more time thinking, planning and preparing… instead of actually DOING the work.

Why endless analysis and emotional processing keep you stuck, and a simple framework for making decisions and moving forward
The truth about task management: why simple systems beat elaborate apps, and what most people actually need to track their work
Three specific ways people overcomplicate execution and why waiting for perfect circumstances is just procrastination in disguise
