In this "Lessons" episode, we're going to talk about the exits you're avoiding and why they're draining your energy. You know - those expired relationships you're still maintaining, that job you should have left two years ago, those meetings that should have ended 37 minutes ago but didn't. If you've been carrying around things that ran their course years ago, maintaining friendships out of guilt, or lying awake thinking about conversations you'll never have, this one's for you. I'll show you why your brain literally can't let go of unfinished business, why the way you end things is the only part people remember, and the exact five-sentence formula for ending anything with grace instead of ghosting like a coward.

0:04.9 | serving you anymore. And why your inability to do that is draining your energy and basically |
0:10.0 | wasting your life. You know, those expired relationships that you're still keeping up with, |
0:14.6 | the job that you should have let two years ago, the girlfriend or the boyfriend and you know |
0:19.1 | that it's not working out, the meeting that should |

0:26.4 | carrying around things that ran their course hours or even years ago, you're maintaining just |

0:37.3 | with that special person, but you're not. |
0:39.4 | This podcast is for you. |
0:40.8 | I'm going to show you why your brain literally can't let go of unfinished business. |
0:44.9 | So why you need to end stuff, why the way you end things is the only part that people actually remember, |
0:51.7 | which is why it's so important to do well, and the exact five-sentence |

1:13.9 | painfully or just explode in frustration when they're trying to cut something off. Instead, I want you to |
1:19.6 | recognize when something has run its course, whether it's a conversation and meeting a job or |
1:24.2 | relationship. I want you to state your intention clearly, acknowledge what was |
1:28.4 | valuable and exit while there's still mutual respect because the way that you leave determines |
1:34.3 | whether doors stays open and how you're remembered because every ending is also someone else's |
1:39.6 | story about you. Let's talk about this. I think this is one of the most important things that I've ever |
