Most people think they need to feel motivated in order to eat healthy, work out, or stick to their running schedule. But here’s the truth—motivation is fleeting. It might get you started, but it won’t carry you through the tough days. What you really need is discipline. In this episode of the podcast, I’m breaking down Why Discipline Will Always Beat Motivation. You’ll learn what each of these really means, how they apply to weight loss and improving your health and fitness, and how to stop relying on motivation and start building real, lasting discipline instead. I’ll also clear up some common myths about both motivation and discipline, and give you practical tips to help you stay consistent even when you don’t feel like it. If you’ve been struggling to stick with your healthy habits, this episode will help you shift your mindset—and get results that last.

The post 292. Why Discipline Will Always Beat Motivation appeared first on Running Lean with Patrick McGilvray.
