Recommendation

Some people mistakenly believe self-discipline encourages self-shaming or imposes unwelcome restrictions on their lives. Meditation teacher and coach Giovanni Dienstmann aims to counter these misconceptions by extolling the virtues of mindful self-discipline. Cultivating self-discipline, he argues, improves your focus and well-being and gives you the personal power you need to achieve your goals. Dienstmann’s comprehensive three-pillar approach helps you uncover your true aspirations, gain self-awareness to overcome obstacles and start your journey.

Take-Aways

  • Use the power of self-discipline to journey toward your goals without fear, doubt or distraction.
  • Cultivate your aspirations by discovering your purpose – the “why” behind your goals.
  • Once you realize your true aspirations, establish the “how” of achieving your goals by building self-awareness.

    I did the "when x happens, I will do Y" and the only issue with this mindset is when it turns into "UNTIL X happens, I WON'T do Y," and then you are able to avoid something you don't like doing and promote your own procrastination. There's also logic circles you walk into when you are trying to talk yourself into or out of doing something you shouldn't, because human nature is to justify what you want to yourself and it is a skill you cultivate unknowingly and that leads to spiraling.
