ATG 285 | Stop Saying "Late Bloomer": The 4 Words That Will Change Everything
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I used to introduce myself as a "late bloomer" on hundreds of podcast episodes. It sounded casual, even humble. But here's what I was really saying: "I should have learned this earlier. Smarter people figured this out years before I did. I'm behind." That broken soundtrack has been quietly wreaking havoc in my life for years. In this episode, I'm exposing one of the most dangerous phrases you might be saying right now and showing you the four words you should say instead. Whether you learn something new at 30, 50, or 70, whether you accomplish a goal this year or next, whether you finally clean that garage or lose those 20 pounds, there's no official age when you're supposed to do any of it. Shame cannot answer the question: "When was I supposed to know this?" Because there is no answer. You're not a late bloomer. You're right on time.
