Feeling STUCK? Hereโ€™s The #1 Secret Hack CEOs & Scientists Use to Get Unstuck ๐Ÿš€
โ€œThis Simple Mindset Shift Turns F.E.A.R Into Instant A.C.T.I.O.Nโ€
Ever thought about trying something new โžœ a hot yoga class, a career change, or launching that passion project . . . but FROZE? ๐Ÿค”
Itโ€™s not doing something 'new' which you fear.
Itโ€™s the idea of being stuck making a decision that will anchor you forever, and your lower survival brain sees as a threat.
Behavioral scientist Katy Milkman calls this โ€œpremature permanence.โ€
// HERE'S THE HACK:
Stop making โ€œDECISIONS.โ€
Yes, that's right, STOP MAKING โ€œDECISIONS.โ€
. . . and start running "EXPERIMENTS." ๐Ÿงช
Let's flip the script and turn all your future DECISIONS into EXPERIMENTS.
// HERE'S WHY:
When you frame new things as experiments, pressure drops.
Youโ€™re not committing for life, youโ€™re just gathering data.
๐Ÿ’ก CEOs like GoDaddyโ€™s Aman Bhutani love this mindset.
He even wants his teams to fail often, because failure means theyโ€™re pushing boundaries, not playing safe.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Failure isnโ€™t final. Failure is feedback.
โœ… ACTION STEPS: Reframe one scary choice as an experiment this week.
Here's the Scientific Fill-in-the-blank Framework to design your own experiments:
Observation: I notice that ___________________________________________.
Question: Will ___________________________________________ help me achieve
_________________________________________________________________________?
Hypothesis: If I ___________________________________________, then I will
___________________________________________ because ___________________________________________.
Null Hypothesis: ___________________________________________ will not improve or change
_______________________________________________________________________________________________.
By using the above framework, you can frame any new idea, habit, or project as an experiment instead of a permanent decision.
Here's an Example:
1๏ธโƒฃ Observation: Coaches need online communities to grow and engage their audience.
2๏ธโƒฃ Question: Will starting my own Skool community teach me the skills to later help other coaches do the same?
3๏ธโƒฃ Hypothesis: If I launch and grow a Skool community, Iโ€™ll learn how to set it up, create courses, and attract members . . . and I can then use that knowledge to guide other coaches.
4๏ธโƒฃ Null Hypothesis: Launching a Skool community wonโ€™t help me learn the skills needed to support other coaches.
Thatโ€™s it โžœ Test . Learn . Grow . โœจ
โ“Whatโ€™s the one experiment youโ€™ll try this week? ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡
