Episode description

Life can truly be so very hard, but sometimes we can make it a little easier by facing the hard things with intention and purpose. Some things seem hard at first but pay off and make life so much easier later. Like discipline. Forgiveness. Honesty. Generosity. Radical Acceptance.


(credit to Arthur C. Brooks) 1. Name your fears and face them, 2. Know your appetites and control them., 3. Be neither a cheapskate nor a spendthrift., 4. Give as generously as you can., 5. Focus more on the transcendent; disregard the trivial., 6. True strength is a controlled temper., 7. Never lie, especially to yourself., 8. Stop struggling for your fair share., 9. Forgive others, and forbear their weaknesses., 10. Define your morality; live up to it, even in private.
