Hey guys,
Just had a thought I wanted to share...
I am currently thinking "man I don't want to go to the gym."
Then it hit me. What do you want to live with? Sure I could be lazy and not go to the gym, but I have to live with the results of these actions. The consequences, the negative feelings, and the lazy momentum it creates.
I'm personally obsessed with discipline. I believe discipline is the backbone of all success. Consistently sacrificing what you want right now, for what you truly want long-term. Discipline entails doing what you don't want to do.
This carries over to entrepreneurship and every area of our life. Want to start a business, but afraid? Want to ask someone out, but afraid? In these moments you have to decide what you truly want. Choose the option that gives you the result you want, don't necessarily choose the action you want.
To better explain my thought, back to my gym example. I could choose the action I want, not going to the gym. Or I could choose the result I want, going to the gym and continuing to stay in great shape. I'm choosing the result I want.
SUFFER THE PAIN OF DISCIPLINE, OR SUFFER THE PAIN OF REGRET.
You decide...
