About this episode

Do you really have to burn the boats to make a meaningful change? Matt Higgins’ book, Burn the Boats, argues that keeping a Plan B can get in the way of fully committing to what we want. I expected to disagree with a lot of it. I did—and I was surprised by how much I agreed with, too. For the first BOOK TALK episode of 10,000 Tabs, I’m digging into self-trust, instinct, risk, boredom, blank space, and knowing when it’s time to stay with an idea long enough to see what happens.
