In this episode we break down the difference between motivation and discipline, and why motivation alone will never carry you through lasting change.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of starting strong, but then inevitably find yourself quitting - this conversation will help you shift your perspective and find a more reliable way forward.
You’ll discover:
-
Why motivation is unreliable for long-term growth.
-
How discipline builds confidence and self-trust.
-
Practical tips to make self-discipline feel doable and sustainable.
Plus, I include a few journaling prompts to help you reflect on where you’ve been relying on motivation - and how you can begin building self-discipline into your daily life now.
Tip: If you're ready to make consistency easier, grab my Energy Boost Guide - it's full of 5-minute resets that will help you recharge and show up even when motivation runs low.
XO,
Shannon
