Ever find yourself dragged into shiny object syndrome? With every passing moment there seems to be something newer, better, more effective popping up. Whether it’s a brand new diet which is promising all the results for minimal effort, a new workout programme that can give you the body you desire in less time than it takes to have your shower in the morning, or the latest so called miracle cure to a problem you didn’t even know you had.
It’s what I call the noise. The noise that is constantly being projected by the world, that tells you that the answers that you’re looking for are hidden in their awesome 3 step programme, or magical supplement. The noise that consistently tells you that what you think you know - well that doesn’t work any more and it’s time to move on.
And it’s so distracting. It makes you second guess yourself, it can feel ridiculously confusing and it can keep you in this kind of state of paralysis where you either don’t know what to do for the best, or find yourself bouncing from one thing to the next in the vain hope that one day one of these things is going to start working.
We’re diving into this today and we’re going to figure out:
-what’s going on with the noise
-why you’re trapped in shiny object syndrome
-and how you can start to dial down the volume or even turn off the noise altogether to find consistency and balance in your life.
