Why Life's Effort is Good News: Eric Zimmer's Insightful Mini-Episode

Life always takes effort, and I think this is good news. It's our unrealistic expectations that cause us problems and cause us to pass over what works and chase more snake oil.
Feeling like life should be easier? You’re not alone. In this mini-episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer tackles the common fantasy that someday, life will require no effort. He argues that this belief is a trap, leading us to chase quick fixes and miracle solutions that don’t exist. Instead, Zimmer suggests that the continuous effort we put into life is what makes it meaningful and rewarding.
Drawing parallels between mental practices and physical fitness, he emphasizes the need for ongoing work to maintain our well-being. Zimmer also touches on the myth of permanent enlightenment, suggesting that people dip in and out of it based on their focus and practice. This episode is a reality check wrapped in wisdom, reminding us that life’s challenges are not only inevitable but also beneficial.
Tune in to hear why the effort you invest in your journey is what makes it truly worthwhile.
