You bought the thing. You set up half of it. A month later nothing's resolved, and the subscription is still coming out every month because surely one day you'll finish it. You're not doing it wrong. When things aren't working, a new tool feels like the right answer, because it's the visible, buyable part of the problem. In this episode I give you a way to tell the difference between a tool that takes work off your plate and one that quietly adds to it. It's a five-step ladder I've built called the Tech Load Ladder. In this episode you'll learn: Why a new tool so often creates another gap for you to carry across, instead of closing one What the five rungs look like, from being the system yourself to tech that works as a strategic thinking partner The five questions worth asking before you sign up for anything new One filter to take away from this episode: before you sign up, ask what this tool will take off you, specifically. Not what it could do. What it takes off your plate. By the end you'll know where your most frustrating process sits right now, and whether a new tool is the fix at all.
