Addicted to Struggle: How to Stop Winning This Losing Game

Addicted to Struggle: How to Stop Winning This Losing Game, by DillonMarcus co-founder Evan Marcus, explores why our addiction to struggle is so powerful, the role it plays in so many aspects of our lives, and how deeply embedded it is in our culture.

About the Book

Like other addictions, being addicted to struggle attempts to fill a void that lurks within us — one we may not even know exists. Addicted to Struggle offers perspective-shifting concepts and tools to help readers find more peace, more love, and more happiness by understanding the roots of this pattern.

What You'll Discover

The book explores how feeling "not good enough" is the breeding ground for this addiction, and perhaps for many others; why no amount of struggle can fill that void; and how finding that we are loved — and learning to love ourselves — offers a genuine path forward.
