Why Working Harder Isn't Working Anymore

TL;DR: This Week in Flourish Weekly

✅ Productivity is not linear… it’s cyclical

✅ Working harder doesn’t equal better results (tell that to your 4th cup of coffee 🥲)

✅ Aligning with The Cycles of Success creates exponential outcomes

Kia ora {{first_name}},

 

This week, I’m sharing the unorthodox productivity strategy that will skyrocket your results and completely change how you think about your to-do list.

 

Because if you’ve been trying to: 

• Get more done,

• Be smarter with how you use your time, or

• Actually follow through on your big goals

 

… and still feel like you’re pushing ‘ish uphill…

 

This is for you.

 


 

Before we go any further, let me acknowledge something:

 

We’re at a turning point.

 

For some of you, the days are getting longer. The flowers are blooming.

For others (myself included), it’s the opposite: colder, darker, slower.

 

And you might be thinking…

 

“What does this have to do with productivity?”

 

Everything.

 

Because here’s the distinction that’s missing from all the work- and time-management "hacks" out there:

‼️ Productivity is NOT linear.

 

We’ve been sold the idea that:

 

“Work harder = more success”

“The more I do, the more I achieve”

“Input = output”

 

And yet…

 

I bet you know at least one person who seems to just cruuuuuise through life…

 

Working less.

Achieving more.

And doing it with ease.

 

So what do THEY know that you don’t? 🤯

 


 

Reminder: Good With Money starts TOMORROW!

 

Before we go deeper…

 

Quick reminder: Good With Money starts tomorrow. 🥳

 

Three days that will completely shift how money feels.
I can’t wait to see those of you who have already registered in the Zoom room!

And, if you haven’t yet – there is still time to sign up.

 

Because, let’s get real for a moment.
If nothing changes in your relationship with money this year, will you still be:

 

• Pushing harder just to maintain your income?

• Avoiding the numbers you “should” be looking at?

• Waiting for the next milestone to finally feel different?

• Carrying it all on your own because you’re “the capable one”?

 

There’s another way.

 

In just a few hours, you could:

• Understand the ecosystem shaping your financial reality

• See why growth can sometimes feel heavier than expected

• Learn how to build wealth that actually supports your life

 

And it’s free.

 

👉 Sign up for Good With Money now

I’ll be there. I’d love to see you in the room, too.

 

 


 

The real reason some people achieve more with less

 

Here’s what they’ve figured out:

 

Energy. Cycles. Timing.

They figured out what all of the above share in common with productivity.

 

 

Over here at Vik HQ, we just wrapped Week 4 of Efficiency Made Easy with my ah-mah-zing Founding Members. …

 

And I introduced them to something called:

The Cycles of Success

 

When you understand this, EVERYTHING shifts.

 

Because you move away from: linear thinking (Input = Output)…

 

And into EXPONENTIAL results

 

 

Where you can:

• Achieve more

• In less time

• With better results

• And far less effort

 

This is where those “how did that just happen?!” moments come from.

 

You know the ones I'm talking about.

The ones where you feel:

 

✔ Accomplished

✔ Clear

✔ Complete

 

…and still have time left for your life.

 


Why this changes everything

 

I will be the first to admit: this is unconventional.

 

It is not widely known.

It’s not mainstream.

And it’d DEFINITELY not commonly practised (yet).

 

But it works.

 

I've seen it in my life, for years.

 

Now, I’m seeing it unfold in real time with my Founding Members.

And I quote:
“Whoa, this is powerful. It’s crazy. I remember last week, Wednesday… I was just powering through. Where is this engine coming from?”

 

 

This is the beginning of something much bigger.

 

What started with 5 incredible humans…

 

Will soon open to an elite handful to join us for Round 2.

 


 

Want in?

 

Here’s the disclaimer: originally, I planned a “big-bang-full-scale-to-the-moon-shabang” launch this quarter.

 

I’ve chosen not to. Not yet.

(And yes – here’s me leading by example… that plans change!)

 

It’s not a big, all-out launch yet…

Because this work is still being refined, deepened, and expanded in real time.

 

So, the next intake will still be:

• Small

• Intentional

• Highly curated

P.S. Even if your schedule is full, I highly recommend that you register for Good With Money anyway. Replays are included, and I speak from first-hand experience here... this workshop is LIFE-CHANGING!

 

P.P.S. 

What if resilience, clarity, and success weren’t about doing more…

…but about working with your inner world?

 

In this week’s episode of Resonance, I sit down with Jun Jared: teacher, healer, and founder of the Academy for the Soul.

 

We explore how to build true resilience not through hustle…

…but through alignment and resonance.

5 Reasons Slowing Down Feels So Damn Hard
August 20, 2026   ✅ Rest feels uncomfortable for reasons that go far deeper than “bad habits”.   ✅ Achievement, adrenaline, identity, and familiarity are keeping you in motion.   ✅ You do not need to go from 100 to zero overnight.   ✅ The 347-step self-care ritual is not realistic for someone with your schedule. Let me show you what is.    Hi {{first_name}},   Aren’t you tired...
Sooo… Are you still in the same place?
August 13, 2026   ✅ I’m pausing before deciding what comes next in my business (and it’s uncomfortable AF).   ✅ I want to understand what’s really keeping you stuck between work, life, and your bigger vision.   ✅ Reply with answers to two quick questions and help shape what I create next.   ✅ Submit your answer by 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, 18 August NZT to go in the draw for a $44 Amazon voucher. ...
When The Plan Doesn’t Go To Plan
August 06, 2026   ✅ Two of my recent launches did not go to plan.   ✅ Instead of rushing into another strategy, I chose to pause.   ✅ A meaningful plan begins with a clear vision of what “done” looks like.   ✅ You do not need every single answer today… you need an anchor for where you are going.   ✅ And… I’m hosting a session at the Beyond Burnout Virtual Summit, you’re invited!
