Gratitude, Nature, and Not Giving a F* About Hustle Culture

Hustle culture is just burnout with a PR team.

It looks great on LinkedIn.

It makes decent merch.

But it’s killing founders quietly—and no one wants to talk about it.

Let’s talk about it.

☠️ The Hustle Trap

You start out working hard because you love it.

Then you keep going because you’re scared to slow down.

What if I fall behind?

What if I lose momentum?

What if people think I’m not committed?

And so you stack more:

• More hours

• More calls

• More goals

• More anxiety

You stop listening to your body.

You ignore your energy.

And you forget why you started.

🌿 My Anti-Hustle Practice

I don’t hustle. I move with rhythm.

And I design my life around three simple things:

1. Gratitude

Every night before bed:

🧠 5 things I’m grateful for. Repeated 3 times.

It sounds small. But this is the mental pivot point that rewired how I see the world.

It’s free. It’s powerful. And yes—it should be taught in schools.

I call it Vitamin G.

2. Nature

I go outside. Daily. For real.

Not a walk to the shop.

Not 10 minutes on a balcony.

I get into nature like it’s church.

Because it is.

Humans cannot create anything as perfect as nature.

So I immerse myself in it. Listen to it. Let it calibrate me.

3. Not Giving a F*

I care deeply about people.

But I care zero about expectations.

• I don’t care what your investor deck says

• I don’t care about your 6am cold plunge or your 100-hour week

• I care about what’s sustainable, joyful, and meaningful

Your nervous system is your real KPI.

Protect it.

🧠 The Truth

Hustle looks loud.

Gratitude feels quiet.

But the quiet things are what actually move you forward.

If you want clarity, energy, and longevity—ditch the noise.

Start with Vitamin G and a forest.
