No one follows a man who can’t even follow himself.

This Dangerous Discipline episode exposes the cold truth about self-leadership—why our sloppy habits, lazy mindsets, and lack of self-control is killing our influence. You want respect? Start with discipline. You want authority? Earn it by leading yourself first. 

If you aint leading you, why would anyone trust you to lead them?

QOTD: “You are always leading someone—even if it's straight into a ditch.”

SOTD: “If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. Therefore an overseer must be above reproach...”
— 1 Timothy 3:1–2 (ESV)

Set the bar for self-leadership HIGH! And frequently raise it!

God will not elevate a man who’s always a slave to himself.”

APPLY – Action Steps

  1. Audit Your Leadership – Where are you out of alignment with the man you claim to be? Write it down.
  2. Set Daily Non-Negotiables – Wake-up time, Scripture, physical movement, and one uncomfortable task before 9am.
  3. Kill the Excuse Loop – When you feel like skipping something, ask: “Would I follow me right now?”


Dangerous Focus for the Week
Lead yourself for 7 days straight. No missed mornings. No skipped commitments. No compromises. 

Be the man you’d follow into battle.
