Why is it so hard to do the little things that would make a big difference in my life? Mel Robbins talks about this on a podcast with Tom Bilyeu. It comes back to our survival instinct.

Our brain protects us. One such tactic is the spotlight effect where our brain magnifies how risky a decision is. So all I need to do is kill the spotlight and I’ll be cured. I need a brain snuffer!
