The secret to discipline isn’t a formula of shouting affirmations in the mirror, cold plunging at 5am, fancy morning routines or imagining being on the Olympia stage.
It’s about respecting yourself enough to do what you know you need to do, no matter how you’re feeling in the current moment.
It’s about keeping promises to yourself, keeping to your word, and following through on a commitment you’ve made to yourself.
It’s about doing things you don’t feel like because you know they need to be done while ignoring the pleasures knocking on the door.
Stop focusing on building discipline and start focusing on keeping promises to yourself.
Focus on respecting yourself enough to not fall back on your word.
Just as action causes motivation to surface - self respect and confidence causes discipline to grow.
