#102 - Why I Stopped Doing My 16 Daily Habits and Got More Done Than Ever - The Law of Inversion, Acting on Inspiration & My Favourite Habit of 2026

If you're someone who overthinks decisions, struggles to act on creative ideas before they fade, or finds yourself falling out with people over political opinions - this solo episode will give you practical reframes you can apply immediately.

This is the first ever "roadcast" - recorded while driving through the Lake District after four podcast guests cancelled in two weeks. Instead of stressing about being behind a camera, I grabbed the mic and hit the road. What came out was an unfiltered conversation about inspiration, relationships, and why I've changed my mind on habits.

In this episode, you'll discover:

- Why inspiration and energy are perishable - and how to act on them before they disappear

- The real reason you shouldn't fall out with friends over political opinions - including a filter for who actually deserves your energy

- How to use the law of inversion to reframe problems - with examples on money, being liked, and relationships

- Why I skipped my 16 daily habits for two days and got more done than I have in months

- My favourite habit of 2026: no social media until your most important task is done

- How movement (walking or driving) unlocks better thinking and creativity

This episode includes personal stories about friends falling out over politics, winning the lottery thought experiments, and the moment I decided to just record this in the car.
