It’s Not About the Thing: How Hidden Frustration Reveals What's Really Going On

Sometimes what feels like overwhelm from a project, a person, or a technical glitch is really something deeper: the tension between where you are and where you thought you"d be by now. In this episode, Donny Raus shares a raw and honest moment behind the scenes—struggling to build an online funnel, battling tech issues, and feeling like things should have happened already. But what started as venting about broken platforms turned into a moment of personal clarity: the frustration wasn’t about the task—it was about the timeline, the pressure, and the dream of freedom that still felt out of reach. You’ll hear how a night of yoga, tacos, and good conversation led to powerful insights about values, commitment, and the importance of locking into your vision—even when momentum fades. Before you write off your stress as “just a bad day,” ask yourself:  – What do I really want right now? – Is the frustration about what’s happening—or what I expected? – What bold action will move me closer to the life I desire? You only get one life. Make sure you’re living your version of it. To subscribe, comment or ask a question, visit www.donnyraus.com.
