How To (Actually) Think About Your Problems

If you've ever thought "I need more confidence" or "I need more discipline" — you haven't named the problem yet. You've named the feeling you want after the problem is solved.

That distinction matters because how you frame a problem determines how you think about solving it. Vague language produces vague solutions. And most people stay stuck not because they lack self awareness — they journal, they read, they can explain their patterns — but because abstract self awareness isn't specific enough to change behavior.

I've spent a decade in behavioral design. What people say they need and what their behavior actually shows they need are almost never the same thing. This video is the framework I use to close that gap.

What we cover:
— Why "I need more confidence" is a feeling, not a diagnosis
— The 6-step specificity ladder: from vague label to smallest action
— How to identify the friction that's actually making the better behavior hard
— Why the obvious solution often creates the exact dependency keeping you stuck
