Ease of Inaction
Instructor: Jeremy Gutsche
In this module, Jeremy discusses the ease of inaction, a concept that looks at how even the smartest and most innovative minds can fall victim to stability & consistency. Smart people do not intentionally resist change or adaptation, but we get so caught up with everything that needs to be done that we become less proactive about ideas that are different, are not in our department, or are not our greatest concern. A multitude of factors make it easier for us to lack urgency, and if you can address those factors, you can spark the action you need to create the future.
Individuals today are so busy, whether it be related to work or our personal lives, and it becomes very easy to deprioritize new ideas or opportunities; this busyness can impact any sense of urgency to take action or pursue something different. Jeremy reveals tactics for how to overcome the ease of inaction and strategies to prevent your competitiors from moving more quickly than you.
