A proposito di questo titolo
Why do we plan so well… yet struggle to follow through?
In this episode of Purposefully Living with Mirriam K Musonda-Salati, we unpack The Action Paradox—the hidden reason so many people stay stuck in “preparation mode” while their goals remain unfinished.
Drawing on powerful insights from neuroscience, psychology, philosophy, and scripture (NIV), we explore why planning feels satisfying. Still, action feels difficult—and how our brains are literally wired to chase the pleasure of possibility rather than the discomfort of execution.
In this conversation, we dive into:
- Why 92% of New Year’s resolutions fail by February
- How planning triggers dopamine, even before results happen
- Why writing goals can feel like success without real progress
- The difference between being an information consumer vs. an action taker
- How identity-based habits transform consistency and discipline
- Why motivation often follows action, not the other way around
- The biblical reminder to be doers, not just hearers (James 1:22 NIV)
This episode is for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by their own goals, trapped in overthinking, or discouraged by repeated restarts. If you’re ready to stop planning your life and start living it—this one is for you.
