Feeling stuck on your goals or side hustle? You might be in the Valley of Disappointment. In this video, I talk about the Plateau of Latent Potential, a concept made popular by James Clear in Atomic Habits. It’s that frustrating phase where you’re putting in tons of effort but seeing zero results. Whether you’re starting a YouTube channel (like me), learning a new skill, building a business, or working on self-improvement.
I share how this invisible growth phase works, why progress isn’t linear but exponential, and how to push through when motivation disappears. If you’ve ever wanted to quit because things feel pointless, this video is your wake-up call to keep going.
- What is the Valley of Disappointment
- Why progress feels slow but isn’t
- How to build momentum through tiny habits

If you’re stuck, burned out, or just want to git gud, this one’s for you.
