STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING, THIS MIGHT BE THE MOST PAINFULLY TRUE THING YOU HEAR ALL WEEK…
I was in the middle of one of my grind mode phases,
you know, working late, stacking tasks, chasing 10 different ideas, convincing myself I was building something.
And then someone from this community said something that felt like a punch to the ego:
You’re working hard… but you’re not working right.
For a second, I froze.
Not because it was rude…
but because it was true in a way I hadn’t admitted to myself.
I was exhausting myself in circles.
Running fast but going nowhere.
Confusing movement with progress.
I kept telling myself,
If I work harder, something will finally click
But all I got was more confusion, more overwhelm, and more unfinished ideas.
That sentence, that one brutally honest sentence, flipped a switch in my mind.
It made me question everything:
Why was I pushing so hard on things that weren’t even aligned with where I wanted to go?
Why was I chasing ideas instead of building direction?
Why was I busy instead of effective?
So I stopped.
I reevaluated everything.
I stripped away what wasn’t working.
And for the first time, I started putting my energy where it actually mattered.
And guess what?
The moment I stopped working blindly and started working right, things moved faster than they ever did when I was grinding myself into the ground.
Sometimes the biggest breakthrough isn’t doing more…
it’s realizing the way you’re doing it is the thing holding you back.
__ What’s one uncomfortable truth someone told you that forced you to rethink everything?
