About 10 to 12 years ago, I saw a sign that I loved and I bought it. It is still in my kitchen because it contained such an important quote for me to remember. It was a sign that says “We can do hard things.”
I have always done hard things. But over the years, I would often think that I shouldn’t have to.
When I bought the sign, I wanted to remind myself I can do hard things instead of arguing with reality and constantly losing. But it became such an identity that I began to only look for things that were hard.
We can do hard things. But I invite you to ask yourself, does it mean we have to? Just because you can do hard things, does it mean you should? I invite you to consider another approach: what if it could be easy?
In this episode, I’m sharing what it might look like to make things harder than they need to be and showing you why just because you can do hard things, doesn’t mean you have to. Hear the reasons we might make things harder for ourselves and why there are so many problems with doing so.
