Indecision keeps us stuck. In this episode, I unpack a conversation with my son, share a 5-step mental reset tool, and offer a fresh look at why slowing down — even for five minutes — can change everything.

You’ll hear insights from Heroic, Phil Stutz, and Dzogchen teachings, plus a practical reminder: your clarity lives on the other side of breath, solitude, and presence.

Why we keep buying books... and still feel stuck.

Ever found yourself knee-deep in new ideas—but no closer to living them?
In this episode, Mark pulls back the curtain on our obsession with learning more… and the quiet art of doing something with what we already know.

We explore:

• The neuroscience of anticipation and why it’s more addictive than actual results
• Why our messy minds crave more tabs instead of more traction
• The simple, bold framework for turning knowledge into momentum: the 7-Day Application Sprint

You’ll also get a short breathing practice to anchor one idea—and a challenge to finally ship something you’ve been sitting on.

Listen in and take the first breath toward action.

We explore the powerful concept of "the gap" between stimulus and response—that momentary space where our freedom to choose lies. By training ourselves to notice and expand this gap through consistent awareness practices, we can transform our reactions, rewire our brains, and experience greater freedom and clarity.

• Viktor Frankl's quote about the space between stimulus and response being the source of our freedom
• How our modern culture causes us to miss the gap and react automatically
• The neuroscience behind awareness practices: "Where attention goes, neural firing flows"
• Richard Davidson's research showing we can turn states of awareness into traits of character
• A four-step method to train awareness: notice the spark, name the mode, breathe and settle, ask what awareness would do
• The Awareness Lab as a community to practice these skills together

Join the Awareness Lab where we meet live every week for practice, community connection, and coaching. For just $25 a month, you can train with others in developing greater emotional balance and clarity. Check out Episode 4 for the original meditation on this concept.
