#69: 🚫 Redefining Success — Ditch the Metrics That Are Draining You

We’ve been sold a lie about success.

From day one, we’re handed a script: hustle hard, make money, chase clout, climb fast—and you’ll “make it.” But here’s the truth no one talks about:

You can win the game… and still lose yourself.

This episode of Hard Truths is your permission slip to stop climbing the wrong mountain. It’s a wake-up call to challenge the outdated definitions of success and start building a version that feels like freedom—not pressure.

Inside this episode:

• The psychology behind why external success often feels empty
  

• Why hustle culture, comparison, and over-productivity are traps—not triumphs
  

• What Daniel Pink, Martin Seligman, and the Harvard Grant Study teach us about real success
  

• How to spot fake goals (the ones handed to you by ego, fear, or social media)
  

• A new internal metric system you can start living by today
  

Whether you’re an entrepreneur, creator, student, or parent—this episode will help you hit pause and ask:

“What do I actually want to feel when I wake up?”

Because the truth is, success is personal. It’s not about what you’ve stacked—it’s about what you’re aligned with.
