And if you've built your entire career around your creativity, you too may be asking: Is there a future for us? Or is it game over? I don't know what the future holds, but I do promise few are more dedicated to helping us find the answers than I am.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-16T04:17:20.700032+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-zack-arnold-podcast-1048782"},"episode":{"title":"Get unstuck, get clear, and hit the ground running in the New Year [HSF]","slug":"get-unstuck-get-clear-and-hit-the-ground-running-in-the-new-year-hsf","published_at":"2025-12-19T14:00:03+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-zack-arnold-podcast-1048782/get-unstuck-get-clear-and-hit-the-ground-running-in-the-new-year-hsf","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-zack-arnold-podcast-1048782","url":"https://zackarnold.com/podcast","audio_url":"https://audio2.redcircle.com/episodes/52841d75-770b-43f5-b95f-51e2ce8f498d/stream.mp3","summary":"If you're feeling a little bit overwhelmed, and if it feels like all the effort you've been putting in this year is not leading to the results you want, then I invite you to learn a little bit more about this thing called the plateau of latent potential, a concept from James Clear's Atomic Habits that I talk a whole lot more in today's Hot Seat with one of the students in the Arnold Academy, Rob Tovey. After that, Rob and I shift gears to discuss how he can prioritize and clarify what his goals are for 2026, defining specifically what is that scary goal in work, and in life. We also explore how to prioritize attention from everything he could be doing to the things he should actually focus on.
