The Less You Do, The More Successful You’ll Be
You don’t need to hustle anymore.
Did you buy into the lie too?
That the more you do, the more you achieve, and the more you improve, the better life will be.
If you just got that promotion, visited the Maldives, got engaged, and launched that business everything would be perfect.
But after all that improving and doing, you find that nothing was ever gained on a deeper level.
You are still you – still wanting more.
How can this be?
The hack of doing less
The thing is, when we split our energy we constantly overwhelm ourselves.
We get on the treadmill of doing more and more.
From there it’s tricky to get off.
Doing gets addictive. And the idea of doing is easy to buy into since everyone else is doing it too.
We think that by doing more, we get more. But the truth is paradoxical. All that effort just pushes the things we want away from us.
If you think you don’t have time to slow down: try it and see what happens.
When we slow down, we gain true power.
