Procrastinate Later: How to Outsmart Your Brain with a "Fun-Sized Warrior"

🚂 Welcome Aboard the Train Wreck

You know that moment when you have 13 tabs open, a to-do list that could double as a tragic novella, and suddenly it feels very urgent to organize your sock drawer? Yeah. Same.

Welcome to episode 25 of Every Day’s a Train Wreck, where we put a magnifying glass to the chaos – then hand you a match and a metaphorical productivity fire extinguisher.

🎙️ Meet the “Fun-Sized Warrior”

This week, Marley’s joined by productivity expert and GetResultsology® founder Robin Emdon – a man who’s turned fighting procrastination into both a science and an art form. He may be short in stature, but he’s tall in insight (and jokes). His mission? Help you stop yelling “WHY AM I LIKE THIS?!” at your unfinished to-do list.

🧠 Why You'd Rather Watch Netflix Than Finish That Project

Robin breaks down how our brains are wired for easy dopamine hits, not deadlines. That’s why binging 3 episodes of The Bear feels effortless, but answering one email feels like climbing Everest in flip-flops.

🔬 Focus, Hacked: The Science of Getting in the Zone

Forget the hustle-culture nonsense. This episode gets real about how to actually get in the groove – from neuroscience-backed techniques to the shockingly effective 10-minute rule that might just rescue your afternoon.

📚 The Cure for “Book Guilt” & Overwhelm

If your bookshelf is a shrine to ambitious but unread self-help tomes, this one’s for you. Robin shares simple hacks to conquer info overload and ditch that sneaky shame spiral when you abandon a book 40 pages in.

🚨 When Threat Mode Kicks In

Fight, flight… or scroll? When your brain thinks a deadline is a saber-toothed tiger, things get weird. Learn how to calm your nervous system without relying on caffeine, panic, or pretending your inbox doesn’t exist.

✨ Real Tools, Real Talk, Real Transformation

As always, Marley brings her signature blend of no-BS insights and belly-laugh moments, while Robin delivers the brain science and practical tips you didn’t know you needed. Together, they serve up an episode that’s as entertaining as it is enlightening.

🎧 Listen Now (and Maybe Tackle That Garage?)

This episode is basically a productivity smoothie: blended science, a shot of humor, and no weird chalky aftertaste.

So hit play. You can even pretend it’s background noise while “working.” We won’t tell.
