The "World's Most Disciplined Man," Craig Ballantyne, challenges everything you thought you knew about discipline on this paradigm-shifting episode of The Breakthrough Effect. Craig exposes the toxic myths of hustle culture and reveals why true discipline isn't about cold plunges or 5AM clubs—it's about applying Level 10 effort to your Level 10 problems and ruthlessly eliminating everything else. His counterintuitive approach shows how to achieve more by doing less, build systems that make success automatic, and escape the punishment mindset that keeps most high-achievers trapped in cycles of burnout. This conversation isn't just thought-provoking—it's a complete reimagining of what discipline truly means for transformational results. Let's break through.
