We've reached a point where optimization is everywhere—and that's exactly the problem.

In this Midweek Momentum, Angie challenges the assumption that more efficiency always equals more progress. From AI workflows to endlessly tweaking systems, it's easy to confuse iteration with forward motion.

But here's the truth: just because something can be optimized doesn't mean it should.

This episode explores:

  • Why over-optimization can actually stall progress
  • How AI and automation can create the illusion of productivity
  • The difference between efficiency and effectiveness
  • A simple way to refocus on what actually moves the needle

If you've been stuck tweaking instead of executing, this one's your reset.
