Episode Description
If you keep telling yourself you want to start a side hustle, but weeks keep passing with no real movement, there's a reason. And it's not a lack of ideas, time, or talent. It's the silent mindset traps that play out in the background and quietly keep you stuck at the starting line.
After interviewing more than 170 side hustle heroes, I've heard the same patterns again and again. Today we break down 7 of the most common thinking mistakes that stop people from ever getting traction:
- Waiting to feel ready
- Overlearning instead of acting
- Staying busy with low-impact tasks
- Underestimating the value of your skills
- Comparing your Day 1 to someone else's Year 5
- Believing confidence must come first
- Falling into the all-or-nothing time trap
You'll learn how each one shows up, how to spot it in yourself, and what small, practical shift gets you moving. By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly which mindset has been holding you back, and the next step that will move your side hustle forward today.
