Overcoming Sunk Cost Fallacy: Money, Time, and Energy

Suzanne delves into the concept of the sunk cost fallacy. She shares personal anecdotes and examples from different areas of life, such as unfinished books, movies, and even her own experience with leaving medical school after 5.5 years, to illustrate how sunk costs can influence our decisions.

Suzanne expands the discussion beyond monetary investment to include time and energy as critical resources we often overlook. She encourages listeners to reassess ongoing investments in unfulfilling activities, relationships, and even professional engagements like mastermind groups.

The episode provides practical advice on decluttering physically and digitally, and emphasises the importance of making decisions that align with personal fulfillment and efficient use of one's resources.
