What if the real reason most goals fail isn’t discipline, but misalignment? We dive into the hard truth that chasing the wrong target—one that drains your energy—quietly kills momentum. Instead of glorifying grind, we use one reliable filter to guide the choice to quit or commit: energy. When your work fills your inner “jar,” you feel alive and curious; when it leaks, even wins feel empty. That simple test reframes progress, burnout, and the pressure to “keep pushing” at all costs.

We share personal stories that make the idea practical: why guest interviews felt like relief while solo episodes bring pride and curiosity, and how a long-stalled guitar goal finally moved once emotion and intention led action. From there we unpack money’s role with nuance. Money isn’t the enemy; it’s a tool. But when it becomes the main reason, it crowds out meaning, turns deadlines into dread, and makes you brittle when results lag. Love the process first, and monetization becomes a byproduct rather than a burden.

You’ll also get nine clear signs that a goal is misaligned: chronic resistance, empty wins, approval-chasing, persistent procrastination, fantasizing about quitting, losing your voice through overuse of tools or teammates, dependency on external pressure, relief instead of pride after work, and that deep sense you’re forcing it. None are life sentences; they’re mirrors to help you adjust or pivot. We close with one clarifying question: if fear, money, and approval disappeared, would you still choose this path? If yes, commit fully. If no, realign without guilt. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs this, and tell us: does your current goal give you energy or take it away?
