The Motivated Mind

How To Be Miserable For The Rest of Your Life


Listen Later

During a casual family walk, something hit me—not literally, though my head’s always on a swivel like a New York pigeon. It struck me that the last 452 episodes have all been about doing the right things. But what if we flipped that on its head? What if, instead of doling out practical advice, we took a completely different approach? In this reverse tutorial, I’ll walk you through the key steps to ensure you stay stuck and miserable—whether it's avoiding discomfort, sticking to bad habits, or finding new ways to procrastinate. Because sometimes, hearing what not to do might just be the wake-up call you need. If you feel yourself getting defensive, that’s probably a sign we’re hitting some hard truths.
