I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place.

[@sadiaarman363]

1) Avoid doing things just because they feel good. Having meaning is what truly makes us happy. Contant indulging in pleasures doesnt make us happy. It can lead to emptiness or even addiction in some cases. The antidote to pleasure is meaning. Believing in something that pulls you forward. If you compound all the pleasures of life, together they do not still measure up to the sayisfaction of doing an act with meaning. 2) Focus on one thing and broaden your horizon in it. Practice the realization that by knowing one way, you know a thousand. We are showered by countless possibilities. In fact each of these possibilities can give rise to greater anxieties. Such a going to a buffet with hundreds of dishes that leads to decision paralysis. Soon you have one messy plate. People get disoriented when they have too many choices. When you try different fields and opportunities without going deep into them, and then try again, we shall always be in re- start mode. 3) Stay focused. Never stray from the way.

[@digolordello7719]

[@barrys9842]

One thing to keep in mind is that achieving your life goal won’t necessarily result in happiness. I worked so hard my whole life to get into a good medical school that it was almost anticlimactic when I achieved it. I realized I put this goal on such a pedestal that it took away from my ability to live in and be thankful for the current moment. I’m loving it now and working towards an even more ambitious goal, but I’m trying to be more engaged and find meaning in daily life. Probably common sense for a lot of people, but it took me far too long to realize this.

[@surajreddy6917]

Wow, this is very eye-opening to read. I'm currently a freshman in college but I have dreams of trying to attend UCSF for medical school and have been pushing myself extremely hard in the hopes I'll have a decent chance of getting in there.

[@Unknowledgeable1]

As I sit here, reflecting on my own journey towards greater self-discipline, I am reminded of the wisdom of Miyamoto Musashi, the great Japanese swordsman and philosopher. Musashi believed that true self-discipline is not just a matter of willpower or self-control, but of mastering oneself at every level, body, mind, and spirit. To build your self-discipline, Musashi taught, you must start with the basics. Train your body every day, until it becomes a finely-tuned instrument of your will. Train your mind, too, by learning new things, seeking out challenges, and never giving up on your dreams. And train your spirit, by cultivating a deep sense of purpose and meaning in your life, and dedicating yourself to a higher ideal. But even with all of these tools at your disposal, building self-discipline can be a difficult and arduous task. There will be times when you feel like giving up, when the obstacles seem too great, and the path ahead too steep. It is in these moments, however, that true character is forged. To overcome these challenges, you must tap into your inner strength and resolve, and remind yourself why you started on this path in the first place. Whether it is to achieve your goals, to live a more fulfilling life, or simply to become the best version of yourself, your purpose must be your guiding star. And when you finally reach the summit of your journey, when you have built the self-discipline and the inner strength that you need to succeed in life, you will realize that it was all worth it. For the greatest reward of self-discipline is not the achievement itself, but the person you become in the process. So go forth, my friends, and take up the challenge of building your self-discipline. It may not be easy, but with time, effort, and dedication, you too can become a master of yourself, and achieve the success and fulfillment that you deserve.

That’s because values and principles don’t have political leanings. If you want to live a good life then no politics can control or convince you to live in a less meaningful manner.

[@thomasmac3081]

how would this topic incorporate politics to begin with?

[@leetayo637]

​@@thomasmac3081some people equate the pointing out of systems like capitalism as just political talk. In this case, describing our current, western society as capitalistic, money focused and consumption driven, is an accurate analysis and would lend to a lot of points in the video. But for some, that would be seen as too political.

[@Arachne-qw1vr]

Miyamoto worked ultimately for himself. He found his interest and made a path. When you work for someone else, being disciplined in the same ways serves the employer; ultimately leading to unfullfillment and discontent in yourself. This is why we must hold companies accountable for producing meaningful work.

For me, Miyamoto Musashi's view of focusing on one skill taught me that you don't jump from one skill to another. You need to find ways to use your one skill in achieving more skills. You will find opportunities to use your skill for business, helping the world, finding happiness etc., and in that way, you will make "a thousand ways out of it".

[@dahianamonzonmartinez3614]

How can you use one skill of yours to achieve other skills? could you give me an example please?

[@BlockMasterT]

@@dahianamonzonmartinez3614 Applying what you learnt. Learning a skill can simply give you experience in learning. I learnt how to use nunchucks and because of what I learnt (muscle memory, how objects interact with wind and movement, etc.) I was able to pick up many objects and do tricks with them. Water bottles, what ever the heck thumbchucks are, and flags just to name a few. I picked up a girl’s color guard flag once and was able to do a bunch of tricks with it. That ended in them saying I should join color guard, but I wasn’t that interested. It also believe it allowed me to develop muscle memory with more ease. One more thing, it taught me the speed of learning. It seems like it’s a J curve for most things. Starts out easy, picking up lots of techniques, but then gets a little harder to learn, before flat out seeming as though it would take years to learn everything.(Dunning Krueger effect may explain this too)

[@dahianamonzonmartinez3614]

@@BlockMasterT wow, thaks for your answer! It was a very good explanation, now I get it. :) I really do. As a piano player I also tend to rely in my muscle memory all the time and I developped a good independance of both of my hands. These physical skills plus my basic knowledge of music theory helped me learn how to play the guitar in no time!! And I'm thinking, maybe knowing how to independently move my feet and hands could also come in handy for my upcoming driving lessons!!!

Chivalry is the worst and just dumb . Honor as in self respect is good but honor as in dying for in a war for another’s greed is dumb . A lot of heroic traits like this are just to manipulate men into dying and working for another. Providing protecting for women was to make men join armies and do too much work for the touch of women. So yes self respect is good and respectful towards others is good no one owes anyone a anything. You open a door for the next person so they hold it for the next doesn’t matter the gender . Being polite based off gender is why men aren’t valued or cared about a man could be dying and a women with minor injury might go first . You respect and are polite regardless of gender race or ur sexists racist. Chivalry is why women view men as wallets and severs they expect stuff just bc they exist. When you give ppl that much support they’re gonna feel entitled.

[@Mr.Honest247]

I think despite the past being a tougher overall experience, I think in Miyamoto’s days, discipline was easier to do because there was less temptations lying around. No tv, no video games, no movies, no entertainment, no addicting cell phones, no drugs except alcohol, no porn, less overall temptations, etc. All you really had was the basics for living and when you’re not doing that, what else was there to do?!?? Most men would probably be attracted to being a warrior for some excitement despite war and death being hell but we all know how men are… Personally I’d find it easier to be disciplined in those days because BY DEFAULT those days WERE uncomfortable with no heaters or A/C’s not to mention killer boredom. So he has great advice for discipline but then he also didn’t have all these temptations to deal with that we have today. Hell, I’m sure he could still conquer discipline in this era but I’m just saying for the sake of point and perspective. People underestimate the unique challenges this era possesses despite it being the most comfortable. Our challenge this era isn’t war like back then but in overcoming the peak of temptations and distractions!

So yeah thats all true, but if you only focus on the goal you want to reach, the way to the goal begins to get harder and harder. You also need to find a way enjoying the process and to love seeing your self work.💪🏻☺️ Wish you all the best and keep trying as hard as you can, that‘s the way.

Miyamoto Musashi wrote the Dokkodo 21 path to achieve Happiness in life He is like the Gautama Buddha of India from Japan like Gautama Buddha he is born in a wealthy family like a Prince but he followed his heart and mind and seek enlightenment and perfected the skill of swordmanship and by wandering all over ancient Japan

Bro he was always a Ronin, he never found himself a lord to serve. He was considered too wild, a polarising figure. Yet we remember him. He found discipline after a life of killing his enemies.

Actually super true. I had to learn spanish when I was 20, and really really pushed myself for a few years at it. Now, Im extremely fluent. But, since having gone through the growing pains of learning spanish, other languages ("harder" languages) have been easier to pick up because I learned HOW TO learn.

The thing is, I wanted to be a great skateboarder. I skated for 20 years before I realized I’m just not good at it. I don’t have the balance, or the raw talent. I really did everything I could, but sometimes you have to have talent. I agree with the philosophy, but you have to make sure it’s something you can do before you put your whole life into it. Some people find their calling and some don’t. That’s the tricky part, in my opinion.

[@dickmonkey-king1271]

My guess is that you are a better skateboarder than 99.999999999% of humanity, and 99.99999% of people who skate. I think you succeeded.

[@YassineTamani-tr8kp]

Avoid doing things just because they feel good: Miyamoto believed that seeking pleasure for its own sake was a distraction from the pursuit of greatness. Focus on one thing and broaden your horizons in it: Miyamoto dedicated his life to mastering the sword, and believed that by focusing on one skill, one could express it in thousands of ways. Stay focused: Miyamoto encouraged individuals to stay focused on their goals, and not stray from the path, even if it meant avoiding the pleasures and luxuries of life. Live with integrity and preserve your honor: Miyamoto believed that living with honor and discipline was key to overcoming greed, covetousness, and selfishness, and was an essential part of the Bushido code of conduct. Prioritize what is useful: Miyamoto encouraged individuals to prioritize what was useful to them, even if it meant sacrificing short-term pleasures, in order to reach their goals. Act with courage: Miyamoto believed that the virtue of honor required individuals to act with courage and defend what is right. Be compassionate: Miyamoto believed that the virtue of honor required individuals to be compassionate, even when in positions of power. Be loyal: Miyamoto believed that the virtue of honor required individuals to be loyal to those they care about. Live an honorable life: Miyamoto encouraged individuals to live an honorable life, which was key to living with discipline and avoiding punishing oneself.

Miyamoto Musahi didn't win because he was the best. He won because he chose the battles he knew he could win. He knew how to size up his opponent while improving his skills. Learning to do that was the real discipline.

Inflation is producing a slew of problems throughout the world, including food shortages, diesel and heating fuel shortages, and housing prices and financial market crash. This global collapse might end up being a part of us for a very long time. With inflation currently at about 9%, my primary concern is how to maximize my savings/ retirement fund of about $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains.

I disagree - it would be accurate to say he was the greatest swordsman of all human history. Of his 60 duels (to the death) 54 of them were fought using only wooden swords that he personally carved on the way to each of the duels. He often did not even prepare for the fight - would just wake up last minute and immediately go directly to the fight, often showing up late.
