Episode notes

To overcome negative self-talk and self-deception, it's important to listen for extreme statements that are negative and recognize them as self-deception. By changing how you think about yourself and embracing discipline, you can close the gap and move towards your goals. Developing a keystone habit, like flossing, can help build discipline. It may take months or even years to change your mindset and fully embrace discipline, but with perseverance and the support of external sources or powers, such as faith, it is achievable.

Most people think that humans fall into one of two categories: you’re either self-disciplined or you’re lazy. But that’s not how humans operate. Even if you’re extremely disciplined in one area of your life, another area of your life might be a mess. For example, you might be incredibly self-disciplined when it comes to working out, but you have terrible habits when it comes to managing your money. How can you grow in self-discipline in the areas that don’t come naturally to you?

In today’s episode, Donald Miller talks with Craig Groeschel, pastor of Life.Church and New-York Times best-selling author. Craig shares secrets about self-discipline from his newest book: "The Power to Change: Mastering the Habits That Matter Most". You’ll learn how to change the way you think about self-discipline and discover the secret to forming habits that actually stick. Tune in now and learn how you can experience lasting change and sustain new habits for the long haul!
