When Easy Feels Uncomfortable: Untangling the Belief That Working Harder = Success

April 8, 20265 min · 797 words

Show notes

“What if business feels easy and instead of celebrating it, you feel uncomfortable?” So many of us carry the belief that the harder we work, the more successful we’ll be. We believe that worth equals hours, and that struggle is proof we’ve earned our success. But what if that’s not true? In this episode, I’m unpacking the belief that success has to come from hard work and hustle.

Highlighted moments

the only problem was my belief that easy couldn't possibly equal valuable
sometimes easy is actually the clearest sign of mastery
clients don't measure our worth by how long we sit at our desks they care about the way the photos make them feel
we pile on extra steps and unnecessary stress because deep down we just don't trust ease
