Alex you are the true example of someone who lives as proof of what happens when you stop distracting or lying to yourself, face your weaknesses or the areas you are unwilling to fix, and just do the things. Like you've said before, discipline is not doing what you are good at- it is consistently doing what you are NOT good at, until you get good at it. Thanks for everything you do and share!

sooo true- whenever I'm not feeling well/out of sync, it's usually either: bad quality sleep(ex. inconsistent sleep times, leaving lights on, etc.), poor nutrition(eating junk food, not cooking), stress(too much social media, not following schedule), and just simple things that make logical sense. Just need to be consistent at them xD

I became captain of a $3M yacht 20 years ago and do all 4 of these habits. I grew up poor. Alex's reasoning for overdelivering and giving first due to insecurity is spot-on IMHO. I believe it steps from a desire to feel important and gain acceptance except some of us (for one reason or another) feel that we must try harder than most people to accomplish that goal. The result is that it helps others. I'll take the W. Great wisdom here, Alex!

I really resonate with the first 2 habits as I've been really strict on those lately. i wake up at 4am and feel that's the best time for me to wake up. if i want i can be a night owl. but if i want i can be a morning person. humans are pretty adaptable creatures.. but definitely relate more as the morning person. It seems humans are made more specifically to wake up in the morning hours than to stay up all night due to the fact we can't see in the dark like nocturnal creatures. My goal is to be relaxing in my bedroom winding down, prayer, reading, etc by 8:30pm and then actually by asleep by 9:30pm. so that would be 6 and 1/2 hours of sleep. which works good for me. When i do become wealthy though, I will never say I'm self made. as i can't take the credit. i come from the perspective of a Christian. And I know i'd be nowhere good without God; He's gotten me out of too many bad situations for me to think i am where i am just because of me. Just reading the bible is teaching me certain tried and true principles that give me better habits. and better habits in life can definitely lead to a better income. this is not say God will make you financially rich just by following him. but even more importantly, character development is taught through biblical principles. and this will definitely help in business for sure!

I never thought about the discomfort of knowing things are unsolved being a reason to be an entrepreneur but that's why I wanna start my own business so bad. I hate that companies who pay people by the hour allow so many problems to go unsolved either because of employee or manager laziness because working hourly programs you to not urgently get things done unless you are overloaded on work for your 8 hour period. If there isn't always 8 hours worth of work to do people get lazy at someone point because their rational brain knows they have extra time
