Doing things you hate is a rare skill — and the only one that guarantees your life doesn’t turn into a dumpster fire.

Look, anyone can binge Netflix or rewatch cat videos. But scrubbing toilets, sorting taxes, slogging through workouts, or having that uncomfortable conversation?

That’s advanced-level adulting. And it’s exactly what separates people who quietly win at life from those who keep circling the drain.

Growth doesn’t come from comfort. It comes from sucking it up and charging headfirst into everything you’d rather avoid.

How To Do Boring, Tedious, Difficult, but Necessary Things: The Art of Sucking It Up and Doing Things You Hate is your no-BS manual for building the self-discipline muscle.

You’ll learn how to stop whining, start moving, and do the hard, ugly, necessary stuff that future-you will thank you for (once they stop cursing you).

This isn’t easy. If it were, everyone would have six-pack abs, zero debt, and a color-coded closet. Are you tough enough to handle discomfort without tapping out? Can you find the grit to power through tasks that bore or terrify you?

After this book, you’ll be able to answer: HELL YES.

Self-discipline is the one habit that stacks everything else on top. Written with sharp humor, psychological insights, and the occasional loving slap to the face, this book shows you how to:

• Pinpoint your personal brand of laziness — and hack it • Harness discomfort with daily exercises that turn “ugh” into “done” • Master the 90-second rule to stop emotional spirals before they start • Escape the doom loop of procrastination that’s quietly wrecking your goals • Set up your day like an elite performer so even the boring stuff gets crushed automatically

Not just more productivity — but a life where your to-do list finally fears you.

Pick it up. Read it. And start doing the boring, tedious, difficult, but absolutely necessary things — like a boss.
