In today’s episode, Kristen is sharing her literal 2am thoughts that couldn’t wait until the morning. These thoughts stem from recent conversations and a growing frustration with the smoke screens we encounter daily on social media about business.
It’s easy to get caught up in the glamorous look of entrepreneurship—the posts promising effortless passive income and ultimate time freedom. But these visions are grossly exaggerated. They present an incomplete picture of what success in the online business space actually looks like. People are falling prey to these promises, naively stepping into spaces without understanding the pain and frustration they might face.
Kristen is here to tell the radical uncomfortable truth about business. The reality is, the hard parts of business have been minimized in the narratives we’re fed.
Let’s look at a few highlights:
- People are quitting too soon because they believe there’s an easier path elsewhere. But the truth is, there is no “easier” when you aim to achieve big and impactful things in business.
- Growing your pain tolerance is a crucial part of being an entrepreneur. Pain is an inseparable companion on the journey to success. When you choose to tackle hard things, pain will always be there.
- Learn to unpack your relationship with pain. What is it bringing up for us? Most importantly, what is the pain trying to teach us?
- It’s not about finding an easier path but about facing the challenges head-on and growing stronger through them.
So, next time you’re scrolling through social media and see those posts about effortless success, remember this: the true path to success is paved with persistence, resilience, and a whole lot of grit. Let’s stop running from the pain and start recognizing it for what it truly is.
