Empathy sucks.
Now before you throw something at me, I’m not talking about kindness. I’m not talking about caring. I’m talking about absorbing other people’s pain as if it’s your responsibility to carry it.

In this episode, I share a simple but powerful approach to goal setting that most people miss: starting from the last step — that moment when you’ve already achieved your goal — and using that feeling to drive you forward.
