In this brief monologue, Jake Burhans stresses the importance of choosing discipline over motivation. He argues that relying solely on motivation would lead to inactivity, so one must act even when lacking desire. He references hearing similar ideas on the Joe Rogan podcast and explains that actions can shape feelings, rather than feelings dictating actions. The overall message encourages proactive behavior regardless of emotional state.
Just one of those days that I gotta remind myself, discipline over motivation. Because if I only did stuff when I was motivated, I wouldn't get anything done. I heard it a few times on Joe Rogan, some other things, but discipline over motivation. Discipline is doing it when I don't want to do it, right? But you do it anyways because you know you have to. But it kind of goes back to what I said before about action, or let your actions dictate your feelings. Only your feelings dictate your actions. But anyways, I'll get off the soapbox.
