How I’m building more self-discipline.

[@heyitsbex_]

Accepting any and all tips on being more disciplined - we will master this one day, I'm hopeful!

[@MostafaNassar]

Awesome tips, time blocks are so underrated

[@heyitsbex_]

Thanks Mos! I agree - if you can stick to them it takes all the hard work of thinking what to do out!

[@Abrpatel]

Like James clear says, all habits are identity habits. So don't try to be disciplined just pick one tiny thing you can do every day that requires some self disciple and after doing it say to yourself "I have self discipline!". Repeat, until it's part of your core identity.

Really love this - thanks for sharing! Is this from Atomic Habits? That book is next up on my reading list!

[@Abrpatel]

@@heyitsbex_ Yup. It's a really solid habit book next to Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg.

[@themarshallfox]

@@heyitsbex_ Ayyyye congrats!! That's dope, go ahead and settle in, we'll be here! Looking forward to it!

[@AleSalvino]

Nice one Bex! Totally resonate with the cold shower by the way haha

[@six917_]

Thanks for the great tips, Bex! The cold shower sounds brutal and kudos to you for taking this challenge lol I think most of us do really tend to fall into instant gratification so I am actively training myself to think with a big picture in mind! Looking forward to seeing how you time block! Keep up the good work!

[@heyitsbex_]

Thanks so much Siian! Love the intentionality to think with the big picture in mind - it's so easy to forget, but so key!

[@TanyaTsukrova]

Interesting points! Have you heard of GTD system? It’s built around time blocks but has some flexibility to it

[@heyitsbex_]

Thanks Tanya! I have heard of GTD - haven't been able to successfully implement it yet, but I am trying! :)

[@BackdraftGaming]

Self-discipline is so important! I never did consider that you could train it in different ways though, I always kind of thought that it only pertained to the specific thing that you were doing. Maybe I’ll try some cold showers lol.

[@heyitsbex_]

It's so important - and when you're terrible at making/following plans like me, so important to develop! I have to believe there's hope haha! Let me know if you try the cold shower thing - I'm super stoked to see how much of an impact it makes.

I've been working on Time Blocks and the 2 min rule. BUT, I'LL NEVER give up my HOT showers. LUL. Any tips for Time Blocks? Like straight up everything blocked out ?

[@heyitsbex_]

I've started just blocking a few timeslots throughout the week for the things I know I want to consistently work on. It's still been a struggle - but making some progress so I consider it a win!

@@heyitsbex_ Thanks for the response
