RA #950: This Is Why Everything Feels Difficult

We regularly make things more difficult than they need to be. Carving out actual time for prayer, getting into exercise routines, and even making a simple grocery list all feel harder than they should. Better solutions are often right in front of us, and they start by discovering one simple thing. --- Lately, everything feels like a major decision: dinner, errands, routines, even the things we want to do (like exercise and prayer). The problem isn't necessarily laziness or lack of discipline. It's our tendency to make things more difficult than they need to be. Usually, many tasks have a point of friction. Figure out what that point is, and eliminate it, and tasks that were once drudgery can suddenly have new meaning. In this episode, we wrestle with the idea of "friction points" and why a small fix often moves the ball faster than focusing on a bigger goal. We share some ideas to stop fighting the same battles every day and make things a little easier by removing the friction Plus, the all-new School of Mary 2.0 has officially launched!
