The dream is the easy part. The struggle is the receipt, and it shows up whether we like it or not. Today we’re asking a question that instantly clarifies your goals, your career moves, and even your relationships: what are you willing to struggle for?

We riff on a line from The Subtle Art of Not Giving an F-U-C-K that reframes happiness as something earned through “choosing and managing our struggles.” If you’ve been chasing constant happiness, we slow down and normalize the truth that life is often 50-50. Feeling sad, anxious, bored, or angry doesn’t mean you’re broken. It means you’re human, and it might be time to choose a different kind of hard, the kind that matches your values and your season.

We make it practical with real-world examples and metaphors you’ll remember: the seed that has to sit in cold darkness before it breaks through the soil, the teacher who loves the work but still faces politics, the entrepreneur who has to learn sales, the parent who has to grow up alongside their kid, and the dream that looks glamorous until you see the weekends, the tests, or the early call times. Then we walk through four steps you can use as a mindset and alignment filter: write your dreams, list what you love, name where struggle will show up, and decide if you’re willing to get uncomfortable for that goal.

If your life has felt heavy lately, we also offer a simple check-in: close your eyes, breathe, ask what’s going on, and trust what comes up.
