🔥 Episode Summary:

We live in a world where nearly everything has gotten easier—instant access, on-demand answers, next-day delivery. And while that’s convenient, it’s come at a cost: we’ve lost our tolerance—and even our appreciation—for doing hard things.

In this episode, Elizabeth explores how we’ve subtly begun to expect ease, resent effort, and resist anything that feels difficult. But what if hard isn’t bad? What if it’s exactly what we need to grow, build pride, and take our lives to the next level?

This isn’t an anti-social media rant. It’s a call to build your capacity for effort—and to reclaim the power of doing hard things on purpose.

🧠 In This Episode:

Why expecting things to be easy is sabotaging your growth
How convenience culture is reshaping your mindset (and what to do about it)
The difference between “easier” and “better”
Practical ways to train yourself to embrace difficulty
How to rebuild pride in discipline, resilience, and follow-through

💪 Practical Takeaways:

Choose small inconveniences on purpose to build mental toughness
Finish something hard—especially when motivation is gone
Delay ease to build strength (mentally and emotionally)
Practice stillness and discomfort without distraction
Reframe struggle as a training ground—not a punishment

📣 Share This Episode If:

You’re tired of starting over every Monday
You’ve ever thought: “Why is this so hard for me when it seems so easy for everyone else?”
