Motivation is a Lie: Why Discipline is the Only Way to Win


Listen Later

Hey everyone! Welcome back to The In-Between podcast! Today we're diving into why motivation is overrated and discipline is actually the secret sauce to everything you want in life. Let's be real - motivation is that exciting high that gets you pumped about running a 5K or starting a business, but then your friend invites you to California and suddenly that laptop stays closed forever. Sound familiar? I'm breaking down why discipline is different - it's a contract with yourself, it's about integrity, and it's what separates the businesses that make it past five years from those that don't. We'll talk about building habits that stick, creating systems over relying on feelings, and why showing up even when you don't feel like it builds unstoppable momentum. Plus, I'm sharing Ed Mylett's powerful story about his dad's sobriety that completely changed how I think about commitment. If you're tired of starting things you never finish, this episode is your wake-up call!
