What Discipline Really Means - Jocko Willink

what does discipline really mean you know besides waking up early and how do I employ it to all aspects of my life what does it really mean yes discipline it it does start with waking up early it really does but that is just the beginning and I always say that discipline is the loop of all good qualities but you have to absolutely apply it to things outside of just waking up early it's it's everything it's working now every day making yourself stronger and faster and more flexible and healthier discipline is eating the right foods to fuel your system it it's about disciplining your emotions so you can make good decisions it's about having the discipline to control your ego so your ego doesn't get out of hand and control you it's about treating people the way you would want to be treated and doing the tasks that you don't necessarily want to do but that you know will help you or help your team it's about facing your fears takes discipline to face your fears so you can conquer them and that's what discipline is discipline means taking the hard road the uphill road to do what's right for yourself and for other people it's so often the easy path the easy path that calls to us to be weak for that moment to break down for that moment to give in to the desire and the short-term gratification but the discipline will not allow that the discipline calls for strength and fortitude and will it won't accept weakness it won't tolerate another breakdown the discipline can seem like it's your worst enemy but the reality is discipline is your best friend it will take care of you like nothing else can and it will put you on that path the path to strength and health and intelligence and happiness and most importantly it'll put you on that path to freedom
