Deep Questions with Cal Newport

NOTE

The Importance of Discipline and Organizing Frameworks in Life

To have discipline, it is important to find an organizing structure or framework for your life, such as a religious or philosophical belief. Rather than just studying it, you must actively practice and live by this framework. This is because most philosophies and religions are meant to be understood through action, not just through thinking. It is through these actions that you gain insights and understand what is true and effective. Don't overthink it, and remember that you can always change your framework. The key is to have some sort of structure in your life, rather than having no framework at all.
