How To Train Your Brain to Enjoy Doing Hard Things


Listen Later

What if discipline didn’t have to feel like a grind?

In this solo episode, we explore the science-backed strategies that can rewire your brain to actually enjoy doing hard things — from training, to meal prep, to showing up consistently when you don’t feel like it.

Whether you’re an athlete, a coach, or just tired of white-knuckling your way through every to-do list, this episode will teach you how to use neuroscience, psychology, and gamification to make discipline feel satisfying, energizing, and even fun.


What You’ll Learn:

  • Why delayed gratification is a trainable skill (and how to start practicing it today)
  • How to use "temptation bundling" to make boring or hard tasks more enjoyable
  • The power of micro-goals to shrink resistance and create momentum
  • How accountability and connection can make hard things feel easier (and more fun)
  • How to build a streak and use gamification to motivate your brain
  • A fun way to turn your to-do list into a video game — and why your brain loves it
