In a recent installment of The Long Game, Seth Godin discusses why long-term thinking remains elusive for many. He highlights that most individuals often delude themselves into perceiving their mindset as long-term, while they are biologically conditioned for short-term gains, resembling a toddler's focus. Godin points to the importance of recognizing this tendency as the first step towards embracing a longer view, emphasizing that true success lies in perseverance rather than mere growth. The conversation delves into false metrics that distract us from meaningful progress and the human challenge of shifting towards a sustainable, long-term perspective.
Seth Godin emphasizes that people often mistake their short-term thinking for long-term commitment, and realizing this is essential for embracing a longer-term perspective.
In our discussion, Godin points out that humanity's inclination towards immediate gratification hinders our ability to pursue long-term goals effectively.
