FREEDOM FRIDAY: Is this as good as it gets? | Curt Mercadante

09/30/22 • 17 min

Are you a man who wakes up each morning with either a general feeling of anxiety...

Or specific anxiety related to the goings-on of the day ahead of you?

Someone who wishes your days could be in a state of effortless flow instead of feeling like you're intentionally plodding along day after day?

A dad who has either a soft or hard underlay of discontent, consistently feeling like there's "something better out there" or asking yourself, "is this as good as it gets?"

A man who simply isn't excited at the notion of "holding on" and waiting until you can tap your 401k to finally "start living"?

If your answer to any of the above is "yes" — know that what you're feeling is common. You shouldn't feel guilt or shame...

But know that you do not have to settle for feeling this way.
