I have a confession to make. When I started podcasting it was a new field. I kept up a bit but after the first few weeks, it started taking time to grow (which it naturally should), and that too rather monotonously. A phase that required hard work and persistence.

do you want know what ALMOST threw me off the path? seeing people achieve success in different verticals and getting consumed by its magnificence.

And it happened less than an year ago. Happens today too at times. And that is why, today's topic, "wade through waste. tackling the shiny object syndrome" is one I am truly looking forward to, both professionally and for my personal challenges as well.

With our guest, Pia Singh.

I want to ask how do we manage it, but I believe a more important question right now would be, "how do I recognize I am being consumed by shiny object syndrome?"Okay, Now I think it is more relevant to ask, how do one manage the shiny object syndrome?How do we incorporate some good practices (and which ones) in our daily lives to safeguard ourselves from the "Shiny object syndrome"?
