Happy New Year and welcome to the first episode of More Action in 2025! I’m going to jump right into it in this episode and share my insights about why building discipline beats New Year's resolutions and motivation, so you can build routines that go beyond the first few weeks of January. Tune in as I define discipline versus motivation, share real life examples from my business and personal life, and also recommend two amazing books to get you in the right discipline mindset for a life changing 2025. Let’s strategically take this year by storm!
