Lazy.  It's one of the most shameful things you can be. And it's largely a title or accusation we make of ourselves. Why do we so frequently feel utterly drained, craving time to unwind and escape reality? Is there a way to not just reclaim that time, but to structure our days more intentionally to prevent fatigue from building and spiraling into a never-ending cycle? What can we do to finally experience relief and regain control? In today’s episode, Brett provides a framework to identify the warning signs, uncover the deeper issues at play, and ensure these feelings don’t erode your self-worth.
