Play and discipline - although seemingly opposites - go hand and hand. You can better achieve play through allowing some joyful discipline in your life, and you can better achieve your goals by applying discipline when you are also allowing play.

In today's episode, Sam explores what discipline based in values and joy looks like (versus the old model of head-down grit at all costs). She makes a case for the benefit of joyful discipline for facilitating more play in your life, as it creates the safety and structure that makes relaxing into play feel good and supported. She discusses the importance of removing self-worth from the equation of play and discipline. Sam also suggests that play is the fastest way of achieving your goals and allows you to apply discipline towards your goals more effectively.
