When you hear the phrase ‘work ethic’, what do you think?
For many reasons, Jason and I both strongly dislike it. Here’s why.
When we take things too seriously, we lower our creativity.
When we try to control things (*cough* unhealthy obsession with productivity *cough*) we kill creativity and spontaneity.
Work ethic insinuates that there is some type of moral compass associated with working.
You’re either right (work hard and grind) or you’re wrong (lazy). If you have a good work ethic you’re a good person, a valuable person, someone of merit, but that type of thinking is problematic and it traps us.
Why are we putting so much pressure on work?
What about joy? Play? Rest? Relaxation?
We need to loosen the tight grip on everything we think we’re ‘supposed to be doing’ and let work be fun. What’s the point of everything you’re doing if we can’t have joy?
How do you give up work ethic? How can we shift our reality?
My guest this week is Jason Goldberg. As an ‘activator of joy’, his online business plan is to leave everybody he meets with 5% more joy than when they met him, and I can honestly say after recording this episode with him, HE IS REALLY GOOD AT DOING THAT.
Your business is a vehicle for much more than just making money. Give yourself the space and the play. You deserve it.
On this episode, I cover:
- Why you should give up “work ethic”
- Difference between ego and intuition
- Jason’s “Prison Break Question” to ask yourself when you’re spiraling in doubt
- Why immunity from fear is not the goal of transformation
Also here is Jason’s EPIC book if you end up like me and want to learn more from here. Here is the FREE Link to Jason’s audio and paperback.
Remember that you’re doing better than you think.
Together we’ve got this.
