Everyone says they just want to be happy—but that mindset might be the biggest head fake of them all.
In this episode, I unpack the hard truth: being happy is fleeting, but choosing happiness is forever.
Happiness isn’t a mood. It’s a direction. And the path to it? That takes discipline—a personal code of behavior that keeps you moving, especially when your emotions don’t.
We’ll explore:
Why chasing happiness keeps you stuck
How to define happiness using the Five F’s
The difference between emotional highs and directional fulfillment
Why discipline isn’t about punishment—it’s about alignment
How to stay the course when life throws adversity, uncertainty, and complacency your way
If you’re tired of relying on motivation and ready to build a life that actually means something—this one’s for you.
