The Wisdom of Delay: Lessons from Friction Points

How friction in our work can become a mirror for growth, if we choose to see it that way.

When a launch stalls, a project derails, or plans suddenly hit a wall, the instinct is to push harder, speed up, and get back on track. But delays can also be moments that reveal what’s really going on beneath the surface.

In this Deep Dive, two AI voices explore Beliz’s Substack essay on reframing setbacks as signals. We talk about why delays are often just the visible “tip of the iceberg,” what might be hiding underneath, and how to treat friction points as valuable feedback instead of failures.

You’ll hear stories from product launches to personal routines, the three quick questions that can turn a frustrating moment into a leadership lesson, and why slowing down for a moment might be the most productive move you can make.

This episode is for you if you’ve ever been derailed by an unexpected delay, and you’re ready to see it as data you can use.
