Success frequently comes at a cost. A fixation on outward performance can cause anxiety, restlessness, strained relationships, tiredness, and even substance abuse. Riding the high of a few successes can keep you going for only so long. The always-on, never-enough hustle mentality eventually takes its toll.
In The Practice of Groundedness (2021), Brad Stulberg presents a healthier, more sustainable system. Groundedness is at the center of this model-a practice that prioritizes presence over rote production, understands that growth is nonlinear, and favors long-term fulfillment over short-term gain. To be grounded means to have a steadfast sense of self from which to find profound and enduring success rather than superficial and shallow achievement. Groundedness does not erase ambition or striving; rather, it situates and utilizes these qualities in much more significant ways. The Practice of Groundedness is an antidote to the hectic pace and rampant burnout of modern life.
