Hustlers and Seekers: How to Crush It and Find Fulfillment-Without Losing Your Mind

by Tommy Baker

Overview

In the world of personal growth, you’re told to pick a side: be a hard-charging, type A ambitious hustler or a grounded, spiritually inclined seeker—but what if that’s wrong?

If you’ve ever felt stuck trying to find that sweet spot between a Hustler’s work ethic and a Seeker’s focus on self-care and fulfillment—you’re not alone. If you’re hustling, you’re not seeking, and if you’re seeking, you’re not hustling. We’re told it isn’t possible to chase our dreams while achieving the peace we crave. But, that’s a lie.

Discover the life-changing truth in this dynamic guide from Tommy Baker designed to help you:

• Merge ‘doing’ and ‘being’ in life and business
• Know exactly when to step on the gas or let go
• Be grateful for what you have while wanting more

Best of all, you’ll avoid the perils of too much hustle leading to a “never enough” mentality—or too much seeking that results in regurgitating principles of an actualized life…with little results.

Written with eye-opening candor by the host of the popular podcast, Resist Average Academy, Hustlers & Seekers reveals the key to achieving mind-blowing progress and fulfillment comes from knowing when to charge ahead, and when to step back—not with “balance.” You’ll learn to operate in cyclical seasons—sometimes a hustler, sometimes a seeker—allowing you to go all-out, and find downtime to incubate future dreams.

Hustlers & Seekers will open your eyes to a new way of approaching life and work without FOMO or thinking everyone has it figured out…except you.
