Deep dives
Motivation and Discipline
Motivation is often perceived as the driving force behind taking action, but it can be unreliable and fleeting. Establishing discipline is crucial, as it's the consistent application of effort that leads to progress, regardless of emotional highs or lows. Rather than waiting for motivation to arrive, individuals should focus on the necessary tasks that contribute to their goals. This approach reframes motivation as an occasional boost, while discipline acts as the foundation for sustained achievement.
