Today's Discipline

The next edition of NO DRIFT, my newsletter for men who want more discipline and direction in their life, goes out tomorrow. Get it here.
Friday, December 5
You can do the right thing today. You can do the disciplined thing today. You can choose to live above the line today. But it doesn’t guarantee you the right or best outcomes today. Which is why most people choose to not to the right thing today. “If it’s not going to work out, then what does it matter?”
It matters not because of the outcome today, but because of your standard and your values. It matters because you need to be who you say you are and not be captive to the emotions of the moment.
And when you stack days of doing the right thing, of doing the disciplined thing, of living above the line, you are guaranteed to move in right direction.
Don’t get 6 months down the road and wish you’d started building the right habits and living consistently today. Start building the right habits and living consistently today to put yourself in the right position 6 months down the road.
Keep chopping wood. 🪵🪓
