No one ever tells you WHY you need to do hard shit. They just tell you to do hard shit. This episode dives into the reason behind doing the thing that you don't want to do.

The main idea is not going or staying in a place that you like or even moving around from place to place, but it's going to a place that you can leverage to change, or help you change, a specific part of yourself: your discipline, schedule, learning to be free, embracing creativity, focusing on the business, getting noise and inspiration for people around you, finding inspiration in the quiet, etc. It is also about moving from place to place, but the key component is, when moving, moving to a place that fits the PHASE of your life, business, career, path, and can help you make the absolute most progress.

I also realized that my fear was boring because it was identical to everyone else’s fear.”—Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic
