WEEKLY NOTES 6 | EASY-MODE

2 min readMar 3, 2023

It’s been an eventful week. I’m feeling a lot more confident in my ability to handle difficult tasks at work, and I’ve made some great connections with peers within the industry.

I decided to take on self-improvement as well, so I read a few articles about personal development and productivity, and got to work on

I had a real eye-opener this week, and it’s something that’s been bugging me about myself and the people around me.

We’re all looking for the easy way out — the simple solution, the effortless path. But is that really how we want to live our lives? Shouldn’t we be striving for something more?

I even found myself doing thinking like this when I was coaching and it really pissed me off.

I mean how could I let this happen.

But, let me tell you, anything of substance or value is going to take a great deal of performance through a great deal misery and stress.

So why settle for mediocrity when we could be pushing ourselves to be more that what we are today?

We need to wake up every day with the mindset that we’re going to crush it — that we’re going to make every moment count, its going to be hard but we are ready for the challenge.

This doesn’t mean that we need to constantly put ourselves in situations of extreme discomfort or stress.

Instead, it’s about finding a balance between pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone and taking care of our mental and physical well-being.

Now, I realized just how much of my thinking came from a place of comfort and convenience, and I bet a lot of you can relate.

We’re all living on Easy Mode, but that’s not doing us any favors in the long run.

We need to be seeking out challenges and pushing ourselves beyond our limits if we want to grow because when we take the easy path, we’re missing out on opportunities to develop our skills, build resilience, and become the best versions of ourselves.

It’s time to break out of our comfort zones and start taking on new challenges. Trust me, you’ll be amazed at what you can achieve when you step up to the plate.

So let’s make a conscious effort to recognize when we’re in Easy Mode and start pushing ourselves to new heights.

It’s time to unlock something special within us and start living a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Are you ready?
