7 Ways To Live a Miserable Life

Everything in life is a choice. 

Even if you’re not choosing the “thing” that’s happening in front of you, you still are choosing your reaction or response to it. 

And there are things that miserable people do to keep them miserable. 

As entrepreneurs, we already take on a lot of stress, a lot of risk, and a lot of projection, questioning, and judgement from others. 

It is objectively a “hard path.” 

And yet, we choose it. We stay. We keep going. 

Why? 

Because if we DIDN’T – we’d be miserable. 

Perhaps it’s unexplainable… but there is a pattern in the people who end up in a midlife crisis, or with regret on their deathbed. 

Here are 7 Ways To Live a Miserable Life:

1. Ignore the thing that your heart is calling you to do, rather than leaning into the unfamiliar knowing that being courageous is always rewarded. 
   

2. Listen to others’ opinions over your own, rather than trusting your inner knowing and intuition. 
   

3. Let fear dictate your path, rather than choosing faith and betting on yourself and your dreams. 
   

4. Give up when things get hard, rather than remembering that the things that are earned are the most rewarding and satisfying in life. 
   

5. Believe your negative self talk, rather than becoming aware of your patterns and replacing this with empowering messages and uplifting energy. 
   

6. Surround yourself with people who doubt your dreams or abilities, rather than those who champion your potential. 
   

7. Keep telling yourself you’ll “do that when…”  rather than taking action now and trusting that you’re equipped to start now. 

For the heart-focused entrepreneur, there is something within you that pulls you forward toward your goals, dreams, and desires. 

It isn’t an option to ignore that call. 

And if you do ignore it, it won’t go away. 

“If it’s your calling, it will keep on calling.” 

And on the topic of heart-centered business owners who are fulfilling their purpose through their brand –

Let me introduce you to Dr. Daniella and her Caribbean wellness brand, Petra Aroma. 

_{Hello! I’m Daniella, a Doctor of Pharmacy and the heart behind Petra Aroma. Raised in the diaspora in New Jersey and now rooted in my ancestral homeland of Puerto Rico, I bridge modern medicine with the rich traditions of Caribbean herbalism.}

_{My formulations are guided by years of studying with respected herbalists from across the island, a deep spiritual connection to plants, and the ancestral wisdom passed down through generations. Petra Aroma is more than a brand. It is a return to purpose, where science and soul meet.}

_{Petra Aroma is a space devoted to holistic wellness, nurturing the mind, body, and spirit. My move to Borikén (indigenous name), also known as Puerto Rico, reawakened my relationship with plant medicine and deepened my understanding of its vital role in healing and reconnection. Through Petra Aroma, I invite you to reconnect with nature using natural products and grounding aromas inspired by my grandmother Petra and my life here in the motherland.}
