Welcome to Hapitalist, where we turn stressful businesses into easeful joy engines. If you’ve looked at your business and thought “Isn’t this supposed to be fun, though?” You’re in the right place.
First and foremost, my love language is gift gifting, so please accept a copy of Frictionless Growth as my gift to you.
What can you expect from here on out? Well, we’re going to (hopefully) find your path of least friction in the next few days by going through our legendary Frictionnless Growth Challenge.
The Frictionless Growth Challenge is a 5-day event designed to help you narrow down on your most joyous, easeful growth, and align yourself to break through your biggest blocks in just a few minutes a day with the help of a group of amazing humans on the same journey as you.
This isn’t supposed to be “homework”. It’s supposed to be joywork. We want you to dig deep on the most joyful parts of your practice, because if you enjoy something then it’s probably working for you.
Yet, because we are taught that “work should be hard”, we’re focusing on the things we don’t like…
…and those are the things that you don’t like because they aren’t working for you. After all, if they were working, it would be working.
Good news, There is something inside yourself that will allow you to grow effortlessly and joyously. Bad news, I have no idea what that is, and this is the first step on our journey to figure it out.
So, tomorrow we start the challenge. Before then, write down a time when your business felt fun and effortless. It’s okay if it’s been a while, but it should be a vivid time when you thought to yourself “OMG, this is so fun. I could do it forever.”
Today’s task: Think back to one time when working on your business felt easeful.
While you can picture anything here, try to focus on one that you grew with ease.
It might have been speaking on a podcast that led to a bunch of new subscribers, setting up a table at a local farmer’s market that led to a bunch of sales, partnering with another business on a promotion that led to exposure, optimizing an ad that scaled perfectly, or anything else you can imagine.
Make it feel real in your mind.
What were you doing?
What kind of work was it?
Who were you doing it with or for?
If you’ve never really done anything before, think about a time in your life that your met people and it felt like you were gliding through it.
Got it? Now, be brave and share it in today’s challenge post. Then, post it on your social media #fgchallenge
Otherwise, I’ll pop into your inbox tomorrow with the first day of the challenge and we’ll start naming your path.
