Welcome to a new episode of the Future Generations podcast! Today we’re joined by Craig Ballantyne, widely known as “The World’s Most Disciplined Man.” Craig is a best-selling author, entrepreneur, and productivity coach who’s helped thousands of high-performers design lives of purpose, structure, and impact. In this episode, Craig shares his battle with anxiety, how structure saved his life, and his mission to help men become the leaders their families and communities need. Whether you're a father, a business owner, or someone simply seeking more clarity in life, this conversation will light a fire under you.

 

Highlights:

“Discipline is the fastest way to freedom.”

 

“If you don’t own your day, someone else will.”

 

“Structure is not a prison; it’s your liberation.”

 

“Your phone is not your boss. You are.”

 

“Most men are reactive. Leaders are proactive.”
