Hey friends, if you've ever found yourself stuck in planning mode for weeks, months, or even years before taking action on your dreams, this video's for you. I'm breaking down what I call the Prison of Certainty - how our school system wired us to wait for perfect conditions that never come - and the mindset shifts that actually help you escape it and start making real progress. These are lessons I've learned building my own business and coaching hundreds of students through the exact same blocks. Hope this can be helpful xx
