Ep. 04 | "Pain tells us if it's working" + other effectiveness tests

  • Summary

  • This episode explores using the amount of pain as an external marker. "Pain tells us if it's working" (mainstream option) vs. "Ease tells us if it's working" (fringe option). I offer some personal examples including college basketball, living in New York City, and how I navigated medical school. We dive deep into common fears and hurdles to build enough context to see past the highly endorsed assumption: "The most difficult path will offer the most longterm value." As always, you don't have to change your life - this is simply a context builder and chance to see dynamics play out in specific examples. No Rapid Fire Round this week, I didn't feel like it.
