117. You’re not busy. You’re stuck in open loops. | The Zeigarnik Effect

I'm Jeff Matlow.

Welcome to the best leadership podcast ever.

Welcome back to the pod.

It's always great to have you here.

My name's Jeff Matlow.

I'm a three-time entrepreneur with three exits to public companies.

And I've been a crappy leader for at least two of those companies, arguably two and a half to three of them.

But here's the good news.

I know all the mistakes.

I've been there and I know the way out.

And the fact is, you've been living so long with your patterns, you don't even realize they're holding you back.

I work with leaders, Fortune 100s down to high growth companies, founders, every industry, you name it.

I don't teach leaders how to act differently.

I show them why they keep acting the same way.

And then we fix that.

There's a big difference.

Because this podcast isn't about telling you what you should do.

I'm focused on telling you who you are.

If you like that, you probably should click subscribe.

In fact, do that right now.

I'll wait.

Waiting.

Okay, good.

Because today I want to talk about some of the insanity that goes on in my brain.

And I'm hoping and believing that you may be similar.

Not something I wish on everybody to be the same as me.

But hey, let's work with it.
