In this episode, we show why feeling stuck kills your mood—and how tiny progress flips your brain back into motivation. You’ll learn why progress, not completion, is the real driver of happiness at work, in fitness, and in life. From the coffee card experiment, to Duolingo streaks, to finishing half a slide deck or one workout—the big takeaway is simple: count wins daily, because progress equals happiness.
