If we want to accomplish something in life it usually takes a combination of motivation and consistency - in other words, discipline. Discipline is both essential\u2026and shockingly hard to develop. In today\u2019s episode, Forrest and Dr. Rick explore how we can become more disciplined. They talk about whether discipline came naturally to Rick, and the lessons we can learn from his journey with discipline. Key topics include how to make even frustrating tasks rewarding, the relationship between discipline and self-concept, how to identify key wants, needs, and aspirations, and learning to feel good when we do good.\xa0\nYou can watch this episode on YouTube.\nKey Topics:\n0:00: Introduction\n2:30: Rick\u2019s personal history with cultivating discipline\n5:45: Finding reward in necessary tasks\n17:50: Engaging in your life, and knowing what you really care about\n22:35: The power of your self-concept\n31:45: Breaking things down into small parts\n36:45: Motivation, distress tolerance, and meta-motivation\n46:35: Getting out of a negative mindset, and finding what works for you\n54:10: Recap\nI am now writing on Substack, check out my work there.\xa0\nSupport the Podcast: We're now on Patreon!
