In this episode of the Next Level Income Show, I sit down with entrepreneur, coach, and author Daniel Woodrum to discuss his new book The Dark Side of Discipline. We talk about how relentless discipline can backfire, and why systems, standards, and identity are key to sustainable success. Learn how to avoid burnout, build smarter habits, and create a framework that fits your life — all while staying aligned with your goals. Don't miss this insightful conversation packed with actionable strategies for high performers.
🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ Discipline alone can become a liability without the right systems in place.
✅ Entrepreneurs should prioritize Revenue Generating Activities (RGAs) each morning.
✅ Using tools like Opal to block distractions can dramatically increase productivity and presence.
✅ Systems should be tailored to your personal goals—not someone else’s standards.
