There is a powerful principle you can use to guide you to an extremely grand life.
Do that which is emotionally difficult.
To create the good life, you have to engage in emotional labour, there is no way around it.
When given the choice, choose the path that is difficult versus choosing the quick and easy one. As the counter-intuitive saying goes, taking the easy road leads to a difficult life and taking the difficult road leads to an easy life.
Follow this one principle in as many areas as possible and it will pay dividends for the rest of your life.
Contemplate why this is true. Look for evidence where you have experienced this before. This one principle can transform your entire life should you choose to develop it.
Don’t underestimate its simplicity.
