Answer to email question:

1. Discipline trumps motivation (and especially if you\u2019re NOT type A)
   1. Hebrews 12:3-13
2. Thus it comes down to creating the structures for success, and here are some helpful ways to do that:
   1. 1. Start by journaling - figure out the things you know you need to do but aren\u2019t yet doing
      2. Think through/brainstorm what the obstacles are that are hindering success
      3. Then craft a game plan for overcoming those obstacles
      4. Finally, publicly communicate it in some way (accountability partners, talk to a mentor about it, talk with friends you see a lot about what you\u2019re trying to do, etc. etc.) - helps us follow through because we all long to be consistent with what we say
      5. And then, as Jocko poignantly stated - DO THE WORK!
3. At the end of the day, you are what you tell yourself you are. \xa0Meaning, we largely operate on the narrative that we are telling ourselves (if you say you aren\u2019t a motivated person, you won\u2019t be motivated). \xa0You won\u2019t wake up one day and suddenly be motivated or disciplined, but, as you work on convincing your own mind of a new truth, you will slowly but surely creative a mindset of motivation, discipline, and a greater belief in your own capabilities!\xa0
