Description

Let’s be honest —

You’re not behind because you don’t know what to do.

You’re behind because you keep waiting to feel ready to do it.

That “later” you keep promising yourself?

It’s not a time problem. It’s a tension problem.

In this episode, Chris Hunsicker exposes the hidden enemy inside every leader — the emotional friction that disguises itself as procrastination. This isn’t laziness. It’s your brain trying to dodge discomfort by pretending a better moment is coming.

But there is no perfect moment coming.

The battlefield isn’t your calendar — it’s your nervous system.

Inside you’ll learn:

Key Shift:

You don’t overcome procrastination by forcing discipline —

You eliminate it by decoding emotion.

When you name the feeling (fear, doubt, guilt, overwhelm), you strip it of power.

You move from I can’t to I choose not to yet.

That one mental shift turns hesitation into action — and action into identity.

Execution Bridge: The 10-Second Pause

Before your next task, stop and ask:

“What emotion am I trying to avoid right now?”

Name it. Own it. Then start anyway.

Because courage isn’t the absence of fear —

It’s momentum in the face of it.

If you’re ready to dismantle your procrastination triggers, text PROCRASTINATION to the number on your screen and download this week’s custom Leadership Fire GPT. It’s your personal tool for identifying emotional friction, resetting your focus, and building unstoppable momentum.

You don’t need a perfect plan — you need a start.

One honest name. One bold action. One small win.

You’re not fighting a task.

You’re mastering your resistance.

That’s how you win the inner war.

So go out today —

Act before you feel ready.

Create some leadership fire.

And I’ll see you tomorrow in the Dealership War Room.love the show? like, rate, review and share
