Ep 69: Disappointment Panda

from The Daily Strive Hosted by Coach Stian

I’ve been rereading The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, and this chapter made me laugh. The author imagines a superhero called Disappointment Panda, whose only power is walking up to people and telling them the blunt truth about their lives. It’s funny, but it’s also the point. We’ve built this idea online that everyone’s life should look perfect. The body, the money, the lifestyle, all curated and polished for social media. None of that is real life. Real life is hard. Business is hard. You work for it every single day, and it rarely looks like what gets posted online. So here’s the question Disappointment Panda would ask you. Are you actually being honest with yourself today? Connect with me on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠@coachstian⁠⁠⁠ or check out ⁠⁠⁠coachstian.com⁠⁠⁠ for more.
