From Excuses to Execution - Overcoming the ‘Yeah, But’ Mindset with Marc A. Wolfe

Every leader has a list that never ends—and a day that always does. 

The real blocker isn’t time, it’s the “yeah, but…” mindset that stalls decisions, dilutes focus, and keeps great ideas on the whiteboard. When you learn to challenge assumptions, simplify the path, and commit to meaningful next steps, momentum follows.

On this episode of The Breakthrough Leadership Team Show, Mike talks with Mark Wolfe, leadership and performance strategist, about practical ways to turn hesitation into action. They dig into how to dismantle the mental roadblocks that fuel excuses, create simple decision rules that reduce friction, and set clear constraints so progress becomes inevitable. They also touch on prioritization—using time with intention so you feel genuinely productive and spend your days on work that actually moves the business forward.
