(Continued from Part 1)
Think of it like this…
Imagine a 5 year old kid whose parents split up and left him to fend for himself.
He doesn’t even know how to tie his shoes, let alone make any money.
Everything is scary and uncertain.

I mean…
Calling that kid “lazy” would be…
Inhuman.
Think back to the maze allegory in Part 1.
Most of us said “no” to the creepy maze, and almost all of us said “yes” to the easy maze with the high reward.
Why?
Well, if…
- …we are confident in the outcome
- …the reward is high
- …the risk is low
- …and we have a clear path…
… we suddenly find ourselves full of energy.
Despite this…
…we keep belittling our own inner children calling ourselves “lazy” when in reality…
…the problem is something entirely different.
And entirely solvable.
This is one part of what Simpleology 6 will uncover for you.
There are some other key epiphanies you will experience in just the first few days of this totally new system.
It will guide you day to day to make discoveries about yourself.
Discoveries that will unlock possibilities you may not have even known were there.
Keep your eyes peeled for your email invitation to upgrade.
As usual, we’ll be migrating accounts over in groups to maintain system stability.
Are you ready?
After reading this, I’m chomping at the bit. The way this blog breaks down procrastination makes so much sense—it’s not laziness. Can’t wait to see what 6 unlocks for me!
This post hit hard. That “misalignment vs laziness” concept made me pause and reflect. You guys always go deeper than just productivity hacks. Respect.
Not to be a nag, but when will I get my invite? I’m kinda amped to start 6.
Dang. These two blog posts have shifted how I see myself. I’ve been so hard on myself for years. Can I ask for an early invite? Seems I’m always the last to migrate on these new versions!
This is exactly the kind of grounded psychology that sets Simpleology apart. I’m holding off making any major workflow changes until I get my Simpleology 6 invite so I hope the rollout begins soon.
This post felt like therapy. But I was already a Simpleology fan for life.
Okay this is wild—I’ve read productivity blogs for years and no one explained it like this.
I was in the early beta group for Simpleology 6. All I can tell you guys is: it’s twice as good as you think it is. It’s literally like having the dad you always wanted guiding you every day and keeping you on track.
Hey Soph, how did you get in that group? DM me, girl!
This series finally articulated something I’ve struggled with silently for years. I’m dying to see how Simpleology 6 helps execute this insight in daily life. Count me in!
Still on the old version, but this got me feeling re-inspired even before the upgrade. That’s saying something.
Can’t wait to see how the new system builds on this.
If this blog is any indication of what’s coming in 6, I’m beyond ready. I literally checked my inbox 5 times already today. Let’s go!
As someone who’s struggled with burnout, this reframed everything.
When can I migrate? I want this.
The new blog design is amazing. These posts were amazing. If youre mission was to get me excited about the new version, you did it.
God this is good.
I’m super ready. Simpleology saved my business and my marriage.
Love the raw honesty of this post. Can I submit a request to migrate early?
Been a long-time user, and this series might be the best thing you’ve published. Am I ready? I check my email like it’s Christmas morning—waiting for that Simpleology 6 ticket.
I will like to get this articles, it deeper than just meaning
You don’t know what you don’t know. And it impacts every part of your life until you educate yourself and have a shift in perception. That said sometimes the epiphanies don’t come as fast for some as they do for others.
Can’t wait to see what Simpleology unveils for a different way of navigating all of the value that Mark has to offer. Excited!!!
Please say my invite is coming soon! I’ve shared this blog with half my mastermind group already. Everyone’s talking about it.
Y’all are seriously leveling up. If 6 is half as powerful as these insights, it’s going to be a revolution. Can’t wait for my invite.
By the way, what is the theme you’re using for this blog?
This post explains my entire 2024. I wasn’t lazy—I was misdirected. Waiting patiently for Simpleology 6, but not gonna lie… I wish you’d hurry the f up and stop teasing! lol
Still waiting for that sweet, sweet migration email.
I’m checking my phone so much for the last 24 hours my wife started getting suspicious! I explained Simpleology to her and she found another reason to get mad at me. “Why did you tell me about this before!”
My husband and I literally forwarded this email to each other at the same time. We’ve both used Simpleology for years. Now we’re both staring at our inboxes waiting for version 6.
I didn’t realize how much guilt I was carrying. This post freed me. Bring on Simpleology 6—I’m ready for a full reboot.
Please let me be part of the first wave of invitations!
Sofia said she was in a beta group. How do I get in that group?
You guys nailed it again. Simpleology’s been my anchor, and this post proves you’re still way ahead of the game.
But Mark, when will you come out with a statement against Hamas?
I almost cried reading this. That lost little boy is me!
AND HE IS NOT LAZY 🤯
Can someone at HQ just send me the invite already?
I wish my bf could see me the way this post sees me. I’d marry him.
This is deep. Waaaaaay deeper than you think.
WTF. What sorcery did you just do to my head with this post?
Why didn’t I see this before?
When will I get my invitation? I’m getting a little OCD about checking my inbox. I’m not complaining, but you really have me on fire to try this.
Simpleology be my low-key hack for stackin’ that cash.
N***** HH!
Mark do you remember me? I saw your keynote in Dubai and talked to you after.
I’ve been in clinical psychology for 35 years and I was never aware of this until just now. This is a revolution.
If you’re not using Simpleology every day and reading everything Mark writes, like what are you even doing?
Definitely looking forward to the new Simpleology. I’ve been a long-time customer of you guys and have gotten a ton of value already. I’m curious to see what this new version brings.
Been moving forward for years, looking forward to more.
will there be an AI and/or calendar integration????
Productivity through clarity…
Hope, not life threating plan map strategy
Looking forward to the upgrade!!!
Let’s see what will be absolutely different …
Waiting eagerly for Simpleology 6.I like the allegory of the kid which has made me sit up and take care of my inner child.
Way to go, Mark. Progress and improvement. Student for life.
Thank You
