Hi there, as a current soldier and sergeant, I would like to bring this back to reality a little. We are disciplined so hard in bootcamp to serve and protect the citizens of the United States. This requires strict training and rigorous standards because without it, one boot could, in the future, get hundreds or thousands of fellow military members killed. We are trained in this way to follow our leadership, good or bad. We have no space for questioning or giving feedback. It’s for uniformity and power in dominating the enemy. We are yelled at to learn how to handle loud noises (gun fire, machinery, etc) on the battlefield and to keep going, and not freeze up from the overwhelm. We are expected to yell back because whispering in a war zone can get people killed. If you don’t yell back to your drill sergeant you will either: 1. Be yelled at until you fall into a heap on the floor, or 2. Be yelled at until you yell back “Yes Drill Sergeant” to your DS at an acceptable volume to them. Bootcamp sucks on purpose because war is utter hell, and it gets you to a point where you can “embrace the suck”. You turn off the part of you that feels anything to just get through it, and achieve your mission. Because you have NO other option. I have gotten way more disciplined in my life but it has a lot to do with the mental shift I learned to make in bootcamp. I turn off any feeling or thought of what else I want to do, and trudge on. It’s definitely a “I’ve been through bootcamp or X deployment or X mission, so I can probably handle this,” mindset. Essentially, you get good at numbing out. It’s super helpful, but not necessarily needed to build daily new habits like cleaning your room. I suggest following this video up with discussing Cognitive Dissonance Theory and the multiple experiments done on the importance of internalization (wiki it). That’s how you can instill change more easily into your psyche. Yelling at yourself like a drill sergeant is kinda dumb. Also, I respect Jocko and his service to our country. He’s aspirational. But don’t think you need that level of discipline to achieve your goals. Seals, Green Berets, any other special forces team, eat sleep and breathe their training. They have to be that disciplined because they’re going into the most dangerous situations where they need the most qualified and trained team. And they can sacrifice a LOT (mental health, physical health, their LIVES, their marriages, seeing their kids grow up) for this training. You don’t need his 20-25 years of discipline garnered from Seals training to lose 50lbs or fix your finances. The truth? The military is amazing at breaking down complex goals into very, tiny, daily tasks. We at times only did 1-2 types of training exercises each day, but over the course of months, that builds up to us becoming good at our job, or shooting a weapon, etc. If you wanna, say, lose 50lbs using this “military discipline method” in a healthy way, I would: 1. Create an actually attainable goal (SMART goal, if you will) 2. JUST PICK ONE GOAL. We have ancient wiring, we oftentimes cannot focus on 1-2 longterm goals at a time. Stop trying to do it all at once. You have your whole life, chill out 3. Get super clear on why you want the goal. Stop lying to yourself if you feel you are about why you want something. Be real. 4. Get super clear on why you have failed previously. Don’t say you don’t understand why you haven’t lost the weight but order fast food 3x a week. Stop lying to yourself. 5. Conjure up every possible way your life will improve from accomplishing the goal. 6. Conjure up every way your life will continue to suck if you stay the same way. I also encourage you to just sit in that space for awhile. That practice scared me enough to move forward in the direction of my goals. 7. Figure out every single possible step it would take to get to that end goal, break it down into the most finite of steps you possibly can. Then take your steps and break them down further. 8. Only focus on specific way you’re going to work towards your goal at a time. For example, wanna lose weight? Cool, what’s the junkiest food you eat that you will miss the least? Stop eating that. Then work up from there. Do you want to work with your doctor to get a weight loss medication or procedure? That’s awesome, good for you to be honest with what you need to succeed. But you need to call to schedule an appointment first. 9. Condition your mind, everyday, that you love working towards your goal. Your conscious mind is the drill sergeant telling your subconscious (the new boot) that you love broccoli, broccoli is amazing, everyone up in your mind loves broccoli. Your subconscious will eventually agree. “I really want M&M’s drill sergeant.” Nope. We eat broccoli here, and we love it. You tell yourself that for 8 weeks, you’ll likely not hate broccoli anymore. 10. Work the plan. The military has taught me to not BS. Any goal that’s achieved just takes some combination of the steps I mentioned above. We’re not magic people with magic training or magic teachers. There’s no such thing as that. Stop looking for it. No one is gonna save you but yourself, so get on it.

Retired military here and I can tell you that without someone else to keep you accountable it can be hard. The reason that bootcamp/basic training is 2-3 months is because it takes that long to establish the habit. Either get someone who will hold you accountable or set up some things to make you. * Get an alarm clock mat that you have to stand on to shut off or put a regular alarm across the room so you have to get up to shut it off. * set your phone to remind you to go to sleep at a good time every night * set up daily habits for your health and do them even in small amounts if you’re pressed for time - clean, exercise, meditate * start small and build up

That has always been my problem: How can I hold myself accountable when I am one and the same person that decides to roll over in bed? The result is not getting things done, it is shame after the fuck-up. And that pulls you down even more and it builds the self-image of being lazy etc. Starting with discipline B is only possible with external sources. It is basically its definition! To do that journy alone you require Discipline A, or at least some of it. Ask for help people. There is no shame in that. (I am being a little hypocritical here, cause I am very bad at asking for help and depression makes the whole thing extra hard. Like most things building discipline is not easy, but it IS simple.)

This is a lovely outline for developing self-discipline. I would like to point out an important difference in the process implemented by the US Army report and learning self-discipline by yourself. When you're first starting out, instead of punishing yourself when you couldn't follow through, realize that the failure was from drill-sergeant-you which gave the order. Especially when you're starting out, you don't have a clear idea of your limits, you might not know enough about your motivators, and you're inexperienced with taking into other factors that make things more difficult than anticipated. Drill-sergeant-you should be taking notes on what recruit-you can handle and adjust accordingly until both parts line up. Once you have a better handle on yourself, you can be more strict with following through without wiggle room. Having self-discipline is well worth the effort as it is such a self-confidence boost to know that, above all else, you can rely on what you've set out to do because you've built that trust within yourself.

Drill-sergeant-you should be able to notice that and dig to find the reasons behind it.

I havent been able to be as disciplined as I want until I got medicated for my ADHD. Now discipline is finally within my grasp if I apply myself. Before it was actually impossible. Even if you held a gun to my head sometimes tasks would overwhelm me and I would shut down. So bad I used to sit in one spot waiting to be able to start a task for as long as 3 hours, crying and wondering why I could not apply myself. But it was a total block. I am grateful to have a non stimulant med that helps me handle tasks.

Yes! Me too! Even with them, I still struggle, but they're meant to support us to build habits and discipline, not a cure-all. Like life won't change by itself, we still have to put in effort, more than most people, but it's not something we're forever locked out from. I really resent others who try and subtly discourage us when we talk about learning or implementing discipline. We're bound to fail, but it doesn't mean we can't try, and keep trying when we do. And another thing that's helped me, is that the less thought I allow myself to have about tasks, the more I'm about to do it. It's difficult to quiet my brain, so I have use external stimuli, like shows or music to drown out my thoughts. It acts like a drill sergeant yelling over my own inner voice.

@@zellalaing5439 I don't think taking your medication requires discipline. Sure, if you want to take them at exactly the same time every single day, then you need to build a habit around it etc. But in practise it's more of a "oh, right, meds!" kind of thought that pops up (phone alarms can also help) and it doesn't really matter if it's at five in the morning or at ten, they'll still help. Unless you have some kind of barriers, taking your meds - at least for me - is not associated with any kind of friction or difficulty (it's not something I have to make myself do, because it is such a simple task, plus the knowledge that I'll be in a significantly better mood and have more mental energy, makes them something I genuinely want to take). But perhaps your experience is different? Physical negative side-effects or feeling like the meds alter one's persona are certainly examples of barriers, where one would have to use will power to make oneself take them. But in that case it's probably worth trying out different kinds of doses or types of medication, since it should be possible to find a combination that helps without having any noticeable downsides.

Honestly whenever I see videos of people being yelled at by army officials it makes me cringe, as someone who thrives on positive encouragement rather than avoidance of the negative. When I did my first ever sporting event (orangetheory Dri-Tri) it was a constant berage of "YOU CAN YOU CAN!! YOU ARE ALMOST THERE YOU'RE DOING SO WELL!!" and I was on FIRE. I was determined to please, to make them proud cause they believed in me. I came 3rd place, after a childhood of being the kid that sat out of PE class. On the contrary, I have had negative reinforcement shouted at me in my life as a form of "encouragement" and "discipline enforcemtn" and all it does is is make me go "you know what you're right, I AM a piece of shit and I CAN'T do this so fuck you stop asking". It's like, unless I'm being praised, I cry at best or snap back at worst. One of my core memories is doing cross-country and one of the PE teachers said "What are you doing?!?!?! you're nearly in last place!!!" and my response was immediate anger, and I stopped running, and purposely came complete last place. My boyfriend has been the best thing for my health (physically and mentally) and growth cause he *always* says he believes in me. He believes I can. Whereas growing up, I was constantly ridiculed and told I couldn't. Told to give up before I even started. Nearly everything I did was met with negative reinforcement, and it discouraged me completely. TL;DR: I'd be kicked out the army in a week cause I shut down unless I have positive reinforcement cause I have no drive to prove people wrong, only to prove them right if they say they believe in me. I couldn't imagein anything WORSE for my mental health and discipline than military training

TL:DR 1. Create Standards for your behavior 2. Follow them through no matter what. 3. Only create orders you can and will follow 4. Train until the point of habit. Short summary: 1. Discipline starts with Standards - Create rules and plans for yourself and follow them. 2. Uphold the Standards - NO ROOM FOR COMPROMISE, NO EXCUSES Consistency is crucial, taking rules very seriously, respecting your word and promises to yourself, breaking promises to yourself lowers your self respect. You build up or tear down authority you have over yourself , with every behavior you do (or don't) follow through with. 3. Only create orders you can and will follow 4. Train until the point of habit. Discipline B and A - after developing Discipline B(ehaviour) (habits) your attitude gradually should change to a more disciplined or Discipline A(ttitude). How to become disciplined: 1. Discipline starts with Standards - Create rules and plans for yourself and follow them. 2. Uphold said standards. Never break these promises to yourself. Do not compromise on your standards 3. Keep promises at all COST - The most important. Start small, but have 100% compliance rate, you will have to do it for every day for rest of your life - example - making bed in morning. 4. Build up to a disciplined lifestyle. After you established track record of success with small things, start adding new activities one by one ( physical activity, studying ect.) Add another only after you master the one before. 5. Expect to be on guard with these disciplines for at least a year - don't stop being disciplined

It’s not that I was brushing my teeth regularly before, but now I do it properly every day, and it bleeds into other good habits.

Something you should also take into account is that the army developed this method over several decades. Since you can`t have the same planning or control you have to regularly check the development of the plan and addapt it to your reality. For example I went to the gym for several months 4 times a week. At the end the results were amazing but I felt awful because it was too much exercise since most of my time went into work and I stopped. I should have changed the goal to 3 or 2 times a week before stopping.

@@sparkymularkey6970Atomic Habits is such a great book and it's easy to get motivated while reading it. I've had to implement a few of my own "make it obvious/satisfying" habits to remain motivated to actually make the changes though e.g. I put pictures of my loved ones/places I've been and want to go back to on the fridge to remind me why I'm doing what I'm doing. He also mentions a paperclip trick where you move one paperclips from one pot to another once you've completed a task. I've started something similar where I add a paperclip to a chain everytime I cook a meal for myself and keep a rough food diary at the end of the day. I chose to count that and make that my chain to stop myself from ordering out, snacking/skipping meals and to just get better at cooking in general. It's still early days but I find keeping it top of mind and in my face like that has helped me stay motivated and make changes for the better.

@@sparkymularkey6970 It's such a good book and I found it easy to get motivated while I was reading, but it was hard after I put it down and tried to put things into practice. I found giving myself visual reminders/cues of why I was doing what I was doing helped - "make it obvious" as James Clear says. I have pictures of people I care about or places I want to go or go back to on my fridge and I took one of the examples he mentioned about moving a paperclip from one container to another once you achieved something and made it my own. Instead, I have a chain of paperclips and add one to the chain each time I cook my own meal (I find it easier to have something physical instead of just crossing stuff off a calendar). That way I'm challenging myself to cook instead of eating out or snacking and (hopefully!) getting better at cooking too. Not sure if this will help you, but keeping the reasons why top of mind and in my face has helped me make change. Some accountability is also good - as scary as putting yourself out there might be - I've entered a pact with some friends who were already on a weight loss journey and we have each set a realistic goal, proportional to body size and a deadline when we all weigh ourselves.

Kiana, very interesting video. It’s important to remember the main reason why the army works is that puts recruits in a completely new environment that is tailored specifically for developing discipline B. Recruits don’t have to make any decisions and they receive immediate punishment when they fail. It’s almost impossible to recreate these conditions in most of our lives; we have to make decisions every minute of the day and the consequences of our actions aren’t always immediate. This is why regular people have to rely more on their intrinsic motivations to change things, instead of extrinsic ones like in the army.

German soldier here. I have to say I couldn’t watch the video to the end, because I am way too sad. I loved your videos because you actually used behavior science as a source. You were different than the other people just saying : „If you can’t do this, you’re just lacking willpower“. I admired you for that. I can tell you that many soldiers I know have less self discipline after basic training. That’s because it’s scientifically not correct to „just use willpower and be your own sergeant“. It is no long term way of building self discipline and I know many people that still suffer because of this drill. It is used by the army to prepare you for EXTREME SITUATIONS. If you are afraid and stressed you need this autopilot mode and that’s why they teach it to you. But for everyday life ? Big no… All I hear in the first 13 minutes is : 1.Set yourself standards (everybody has their goals set on New Year’s Eve, it still doesn’t work) and 2. don’t fail (willpower; people ALREADY beat themselves up for failing ! That’s not the problem) Maybe it’s the language barrier and I don’t get what you want to say, but I think I can’t finish this video because I am just so disappointed. I really don’t want to be mean. I am normally a big fan of you. But I can tell you: I am a pretty disciplined person nowadays. But basic training didn’t give me more discipline. Self love, real expectations and working with my feelings got me there. However, I wish you all the best.

Very interesting, but, to me at least, it's a sensible topic. Put your self-respect on the line is a double-edge sword that I would not advice to anyone. I was 19 at the time, and I wanted so bad to be self-discipline that I've done exactly that. I was so serious about myself, but I failed to stick to my rules (that were way to big I admit). The consequence have been extreme. I've made a major depression that took many years just to regain a kind of trust in me. Today, 25 years later, I'm feel great and on my way to acheive my dream. I still work everyday on self-discipline and my friends consider me more disciplined than most people. But to me, the success of self-discipline lie on the way I value myself. And it's by an authentic effort to obey my rule, no matter what's the outcome. The major shift that change everything to me came by reframing the way I internalized failing. I not scare of failing anymore. I even embrace failing. Like the harder that I can. Failing is the legitimate counter part of creativity, and I just welcome it. At the end, the only rule that I observe strictly without any compromise is to never ever disrespect myself for failing, and just retry with an authentic effort the next day, while smiling if possible. A big game changer for me.

The problem with military disciple working is that we forgot all the people who failed and leave the program because they could not follow it. For neurodivergents, the result of that kind of extreme disciple could be catastrophic in term of mental health. A great book on the subject of habits is the one written by Fumio Sasaki. The ideas are almost the same but it concern a larger range of personality.

The dog training thing reminded me of something. Parenting consistency. It's something that I had to get into my husband's head (career military) that you can't just threaten consequences and not follow through. We both grew up in homes like this. We had a decent amount of self-discipline & knew that our parents wouldn't kill us or throw us off the 2nd floor balcony and could have seriously rebelled. We both had siblings who became extremely violent as teens because of the lack of consequences in the home. Our kids were not kept in line via fear, but if they broke a family rule, the consequences were stuck to. It started when they were young, you can't hit your friend or we are going home, then following through, for example. It's a building process. Both kids are disciplined adults, including one who followed Dad into the Marine Corps.

That's kind of what happened to me! I started with easy tasks that were 100% achievable and slowly added on the desired habits. At first I think my habit list only included one stretching session and one study session per day. Right now my daily routine includes so many different tasks (like doing push-ups, taking a cold shower in the morning, studying, reading, listening to podcasts, doing resistance training and so so on), but doing all of them feels natural and not like a burden (well, maybe the resistance training feels like a burden, that's why I only have it twice a week lol). Have I had to start with all of these, I wouldn't have even tried. But gradually raising the difficulty and training myself to act disciplined actually made so many positive changes! One tip I've learned is to seperate all the routines into small doable tasks. For example, "Hold plank for 30 seconds", but then add three of those and voila - you are holding plank three times a day, but it's easy and doesn't take as much time and effort as three reps, which makes it just so much easier mentally. It might be less effective than doing reps, but it is one hundred percent more effective than doing nothing lol

I started watching this video in the bed. At the point of mentioning standards everything clicked in me. I ran to explain my insight to my partner and I went a head and changed the title of "to-do list" to "standards". And I got all these tasks done just like that. I did them just because they are now standards of living. Tasks that I have wanted and needed and pleaded and commanded of myself to be morning routines but any sort of ordering myself around and even being gentle with myself haven't worked. I come from high standards household same as my partner. We both joked it's military sort of background. So we only shape up when there's other people coming in to visit. With their expectations of standards. And even though we both hope for better household routines we haven't thought about them as standards. This really is a game changer for me. Now we don't have this harsh authority-rebellion cycle going on in our heads. How we just force ourselves to do for outside approval or even fleeting accomplished feeling from with. And then to insert our independence from being ordered around let ourselves go again. In a sense. Just psychologically speaking. I haven't even finished this video.

Restarting the cycle entirely all over again is a hard blow, so trust that your missteps are not the end all be all of your journey to self discipline! And yes!

Setting up you wifi, riding a bike and so on.. ). Let me spare you all time and effort - ITS ALL BS. Only solution is understanding, self reflection / self realisation and maybe a little bit of obsession in what you do ( thats a bonus and a great hack! ) and just DOING IT..

Train until the point of habit ⬇️ When you keep going with discipline b, you will eventually transition to discipline a. ⬇️ Discipline A - being disciplined: Through constantly being disciplined, you will gradually start thinking of yourself as a disciplined person. Once you see yourself as a disciplined person, you will “automatically” be disciplined as this corresponds to who you are.

I’ve got ADHD and believe me it’s possible, I’ve grown my skill so much but it is so much more challenging than the average person, but this means it’s even more important to master because we have so much potential creatively. I have weak moments on my bad brain days… but my well-being and future success requires me to keep trying hard.

Very insightful video! I’ve always hated the idea of self-discipline, it’s something I wanted to have, but never wanted to train towards. But this makes it feel more achievable.

I live in the United Kingdom and I know, especially in the army. The ordinary squady doesn't have. any self-discipline at all because everything is done for them. All they have to do is follow orders. That's why when they come out of the army they go off the rails because they're not fit to look after themselves.

Win! Thanks for the video it was useful. I do this with new habits, start off slow until ive mastered each one then add a new one. I use a jotform questionnaire that i made myself to rate how i done with each habit for the day at the end of each day, takes less than a minute and I review the results each week and month. Knowing that I am going to review my habits really pushes me to stay on track. My current habit is putting stuff back after I use it, and ive gone from a 2-3/10 to about 7-8 out of ten for ther last month.

That’s amazing.. you are SO on the right road to success in the areas of your choice. I admire you discipline. I especially like that you don’t let small things stop your over all big process. Going from 2 - 3 out of 10 to 7 out of 10, WOW.

I’m an “all or nothing” type of thinker and your process has really helped me to re think that to a more self serving and logical way of trying to be better than before.

Comparing discipline to military style bootcamps is a false equivocation. Creating "rules" to follow is not actually all that helpful for people who want to establish personal habits. Bootcamps can train people into shape because they enforce externalized consequences. There is already an established system of accountability. But for the average person, outsourcing accountability can lose its hold on you if your circumstances change, so it's a suboptimal solution. Personal behavioral change is dictated by things like your environment (#1 predictor of change), ease of access, sustainability over time, and enjoyment/satisfaction derived from the task or habit.Tyrannizing yourself often fails because it relies on willpower. It should feel relatively easy to get started and to keep going, and the number 1 predictor that you will keep a habit going is fostering satisfaction/enjoyment from the habit. All this to say, formimg habits is less about restricting yourself than it is about finding ways to enable yourself.

This comports with everything else I've ever heard that made sense. Even 12 step programs have a common slogan: you can't think your way to good action, you have to act your way to good thinking (or something like that.) My auntie used to tell me "You can eat an elephant if you take it one bite at a time." and Jordan Peterson says "Think of the smallest task you can do to improve your life, and do it." My own father tells me all the time, "How we do the small things is how we do everything." It's great watching your channel especially, because I know when you say something, you've been there and lived it, and made great change. Your humility and candor, the enthusiasm is all very encouraging, less intimidating. Excellent. Fantastic content. I can't wait for the course! Thank you, Kiana.

Just an FYI: “military discipline” and bootcamps have been strongly linked to PTSD and depression, and I would be careful with framing discipline around it as a positive example

@@Fonsoknows33 absolutely! One solution to having a lack of self-discipline is to begin to journal and reflect on what your relationship to discipline and control really means. Then, working with a licensed mental health professional to heal your relationship with your self-image. Typically, lack of discipline is an issue associated with low self-image, and working through those issues can be really psychologically helpful.

I joined a martial arts class in the summer of 2023 and I haven't stopped since, so I'm very pleased with myself for that. On the other hand, daily tasks have been a struggle for me and it makes me feel like crap because how am I able to accomplish something most people struggle with (consistency in physical activity), but I'm failing at the simple things. I really liked that bit about making your bed, I'm gonna do it right now. I could relate with taking yourself serious so you follow your own rules. In the past, I have been able to stick to a routine because I took myself seriously, even if it was a bit too serious at times. I guess somewhere along the road I stopped caring, and I can't let myself down like that. Honestly this is one of those topics that really makes you rethink your life lol. Thanks for this video.

Lol... did 20 years in the service. This sure brought back a lot of memories. Accountability, applying one self, getting the job done ASAP is just one of those things that gets instilled in you to fit in and function accordingly in the military. Love the video, thanks for the upload.

I think it's dangerous to assume that because the military uses these techniques mean they must work, let alone that they are safe or good for us long term. The military might be very dedicated to inspiring obedience, but that doesn't mean the're scientific in identifying the best way to do it. Institutional inertia, bias, and adherence to existing practice could well lead to them sticking with failing methods. And finally - their priority is obedience. Not self-disciple. I do think the ideas here are probably good, but let's not assume the military must be right.
