Why You Attack Monday And Crumble By Friday

<p>Why does a weekly to-do list feel so overwhelming on a Sunday night? Jake and Damian argue it's not because of your workload, it's because your capacity . Sleep, energy, confidence, clarity, control: when any of these drop, the same list of tasks stops looking like separate, manageable jobs and starts looking like one overwhelming message — everything, now.</p><br><p>In this episode, Jake and Damian hear from:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>Steve Peters on the "chimp" that hijacks you in traffic, and why recognising it isn't you is the first step to managing it.</li><li>Ash Dykes on preparing for the worst before it happens, so it arrives as something expected rather than something that ambushes you.</li><li>Shane Parrish on why you don't need the confidence to reach the destination — just the confidence to take the next step.</li><li>Ali Abdaal on the five-minute rule, and the three-quid hourglass that got him moving on the days motivation didn't show up.</li><li>James Clear on the two-minute rule, and the heaviest weight in the gym: the front door.</li><li>Jameela Jamil on the power of small, unglamorous no's.</li><li>Alistair Brownlee on breaking an impossible-feeling task down into the next five-minute reason to keep going.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>By the end, Jake and Damian give you a ten-minute reset for the next time life all feels like too much because the goal was never to shame yourself into trying harder. It's to rebalance the equation.</p><br><p>Thanks to our partners:</p><br><p>AG1 👉 head to <a href="http://drinkag1.com/highperformance" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://drinkag1.com/highperformance</a> and get a free Morning Person Hat to help start your AG1 daily habit - plus a free D3 and K2, and five travel packs</p>
