WHAT IF YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HAPPY? 🤔

Let’s be real for a moment: this whole “pursuit of happiness” thing is getting a tad annoying, right? 🙄 Happiness is everywhere! Instagram reels screaming about “highest vibrations,” ads promising happiness through protein powder and coffin-shaped lamps, and podcasts titled “How To Finally Be Happy (And Make Millions…).” 💸🛋️💊✨ And honestly, does it really work? Not for many, even those who are financially stable and healthy. 🤷‍♂️ So, the thought arises: what if you’re not supposed to be happy all the time? 🤔 What if that was never the point? 🎯 What if this modern obsession with constant happiness is just another marketing scheme for a life that doesn’t actually exist? 🛍️

Broken GPS 🧭

When Faderhead was 25, the goal was a record deal. ✍️ Got it. Then, it was people at shows. 🚶‍♂️ Got that too. Then, people singing along. 🎤 Check. And guess what? Faderhead was still the same moody, overthinking, slightly-depressed, alcohol-fueled dude with endless half-finished projects and a mix of genius/garbage ideas. 🤷‍♂️🍺📝 Happiness, it turned out, was a moving target – and Faderhead was chasing it with a faulty GPS. 😵‍💫

The Alternative 🕊️

What if peace is better than happiness? 😌 What if “content” is better than “ecstatic”? 😊 What if waking up without dread and sleeping with a calm mind is the real win? 🏆 A few weeks ago, someone much younger asked, “Are you happy?” 🤔 Faderhead’s answer: “No. But I’m at peace with most things. And I’m doing stuff that matters to me.” 🙏 Maybe that quieter space, where work feels meaningful and the mind isn’t at war, is the real destination. 🧘 Getting older helps with this perspective. 👴 At 20, it’s all about “more.” ➕ More stuff, more success, more experiences, more “likes.” 👍 Approaching 50, “less” starts to look like freedom. ➖ Less chaos, less drama, less noise, less bullshit. 🚫 Suddenly, quiet moments, close friends, and doing your own thing without external validation become more appealing. 🤫🤝 And somehow, that feels… good. Solid. Real. A quiet kind of content. 💯

What’s The Goal Then? ➡️

So yeah, maybe you’re not supposed to be happy all the time. 🤔 Maybe you’re supposed to be useful. 🛠️ Maybe you’re supposed to grow through pain instead of avoiding it. 🌱 Maybe life isn’t a 24/7 Disneyland ride, but a well-built road that gets you where you need to go, even if it’s bumpy. 🛣️ And maybe, just maybe, you’re doing better than you think. ❤️ Now stop scrolling for happiness and go do something that actually matters to you. ✨

🔥 Faderhead Unleashes New Single “This Is Not The End” + Mindset Hacks for High-Functioning Controlled Chaos 🧠💥

🎤 New Track Previewed Live in Germany

Kicking off March with explosive energy, Faderhead delivered a sold-out show in Oberhausen, Germany—where fans got a surprise taste of a brand-new track: “This Is Not The End.” Despite never having heard it before, the crowd went off.

📹 Watch the crowd reaction here

The official music video will be filmed this Saturday in Hamburg, where the team hopes for an equally electric audience. The single is scheduled to drop mid-May, just in time to crank momentum before Wave-Gotik-Treffen.

💿 FH20 Album in the Works

In last month’s Patreon studio stream, Faderhead teased plans for a brand-new full-length album in early March 2026.

Why now?
2026 marks 20 years since the release of Faderhead’s debut album “FH1”, and what better way to celebrate than with an “FH20” release.

After a string of singles in 2024, it’s time for something more immersive. Faderhead is back in album mode.

🎛️ 1-Hour Rave Mix: Not Your Typical FH Vibe

March’s 1-hour Patreon-exclusive mix takes a rave-forward detour. Less darkwave, more full-on energy.

It’s rhythmic, pulsing, and designed to attract new listeners—so if you’re into high-octane beats, give it a spin.

Apr 5, 2025 – Bahnhof Pauli, Hamburg (SOLD OUT!)
✨ with special guest: Mechanical Vein

Aug 9-10, 2025 – M’era Luna Festival, Hildesheim

💪 Mindset Hacks: Fuck Your Excuses, Use Microbursts Instead

Q1 is over. Are your New Year’s resolutions collecting dust? Let’s fix that.

We all make excuses—life’s busy, motivation’s low, the timing’s never right. But if you wait for perfect conditions, you’ll stay stuck forever.

⏱️ Microbursts: The 10-Minute Fix

Instead of aiming for a perfect hour-long work sprint, start with 5–15 minutes of focused action.
Set a timer. Do one task. When it dings, you’re done. Or keep going.

That’s the magic of microbursts—small momentum snowballs fast.

🗓️ Temporal Landmarks: Hit Reset on Command

Want a clean slate? Use temporal landmarks like Mondays, birthdays, or the 1st of the month to mentally reset.
Pick a hard start date and commit. No waiting for motivation. Just move.

🧠 Perfection Is a Lie. Progress Is Power

You don’t need the perfect hour or the perfect energy. You need movement.
Start with one push-up.
One sentence.
One small win.

Because motion beats perfection every time.

🚀 Take the Shot

Next time you’re tempted to delay:
Say “fuck that.”
Set a timer.
Start something.

Small wins build big momentum.
