You're not lazy. You're not broken. You're lost.
And the reason you're lost is simpler than you think.
In this solo episode of The Grateful Podcast, Jack breaks down why so many young people — and even millionaire CEOs — still feel directionless. He shares the two approaches to finding what you want, why 95% of people don't have a clear written goal, and the visualisation exercise that changed everything for him.
Jack also shares how he went from having no plan to landing a TEDx talk in London — and why the journey from "I have no idea how" to actually getting the thing is the most extraordinary part of life.
If you've been telling yourself "I don't know what I want" for too long, this is your wake-up call.
