How to Clear Your Head and Get Focused
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The new year hype is gone — and for a lot of people, what’s left is mental overload.
In this episode of The MindShare Podcast, David Greenspan tackles a problem many high performers are facing right now: knowing what needs to be done, but struggling to focus, organize thoughts, and move forward.
This isn’t a motivation episode and it’s not about hustle or shiny tools. Instead, David breaks down why overthinking, mental congestion, and unprocessed decisions drain energy — and how journaling, done the right way, can become a powerful outlet for clarity, focus, and productivity.
You’ll learn:
- Why “being busy” often masks mental overload
- How unresolved thoughts quietly drain energy and performance
- What journaling actually is (and what it isn’t) for driven professionals
- How writing things down creates clarity and momentum
- When and how to use journaling as a practical tool — not a daily chore
