Your Life Was Already Decided

Scott Lynch
About this episode

90 days ago, were you thinking about where you'd be today? Probably not. Yet here you are, living the result of the choices you made over the past three months, whether you put in the work or let things slide. Time doesn't wait, and it doesn’t care if you spent those days building better habits or indulging in temporary comforts. All that matters now is what you have to show for it. We hit countless crossroads daily, moments that determine whether we stick to what’s easy or push for something better. But here’s the thing: all that discomfort, all those little decisions—they’re gone now. What’s left is the result. I’ll show you why understanding this can radically shift how you approach the next 90 days.
