CRUSH Indecision in 5 SECONDS | Mel Robb...

Lewis Howes
About this episode

Bestselling author and speaker Mel Robbins debunks the myth that you need confidence and courage to make changes, advising instead that action precedes motivation. She details how we make emotionally-driven decisions, stifling growth by overanalyzing. Robbins shares how she created her "5-second rule" to push past hesitation and fear by counting down then acting. This habit trains the mind to override doubts, building confidence through small daily wins. Robbins explains hesitation signals danger to our brains, but counting down triggers focus and conscious choice to lean into growth. She emphasizes seizing power in moments of decision to stop negative patterns, transforming life through tiny steps outside your comfort zone.
