Ep 295: Understanding the Hero Syndrome with Jason Duncan

The Hero Syndrome is an interesting phenomenon that is worth exploring. It describes the urge to take on more tasks than you are capable of but burnout can soon follow. To maximize his productivity, Jason Duncan practices the art of saying no - a skill that prevents burnout and ensures he can stay focused on what matters most.

Though managing tasks may take some effort upfront, it allows for greater efficiency and accomplishment over the long run, so it’s truly worth the time invested. Listen to Jason to learn about the technique he teaches on his coaching platform that became a game changer for many entrepreneurs.

Episode Highlights

02:56 - Well, I think it's just minimizing at the base level. It's just getting your open cycles down to a manageable thing. And then once you realize and understand what causes stress is open cycles, if you start feeling stressed, you know what it's related to and you can do a quick open cycles inventory. Certainly, it doesn't take three hours once you know what you're doing. Because you can go, "What is on my list I need to take care of?" I mean, I've got my date, my planner, right here on the desk next to me and in this planner, there's a list of 10 or 12 things that I need to get done this week. That's all I do. I just get that one done. Done! Move on to the next one. That's how I manage it.
