178. 5 steps for building self discipline

Self discipline is the key ingredient to unlocking everything you want in life. But despite that many of us treat it like its optional and believe the narrative that self discipline requires perfection, requires sacrifice and is too hard. Actually, self discipline is anything but, it is actually the road of least resistance. In this episode we break down 5 tips for building self discipline in any area of life:

  1. Understanding your motivation
  2. Leveraging social accountability and desirability bias
  3. The power of micro habits
  4. Hacking our dopamine systems through instant versus delayed gratification
  5. Shifting from learned helplessness to learned industriousness

All of that and more! Listen now!
