TL;DR: Discipline beats motivation
- BenoitP 6y agoI'd say habits beat motivation
- antepodius 6y agoWhat's the difference between 'habits' and 'discipline'?
- naringas 6y agodiscipline is like keeping promises you make to yourself and habits are just things you do cyclically and sometimes even without thinking but which you had to learn to do at some point (washing hands after using the toilet, brushing your teeth, etc..)
- bob1029 6y agoDiscipline and habits are one in the same as far as I am concerned. One builds into the other.
- bluntfang 6y agomaking habits requires motivation and discipline.
- kanobo 6y agoYou won't make habits because you won't have the motivation and discipline to make those habits. It's a bit of a chicken and egg. /s
- bluntfang 6y agoI'm sorry I upset you. I hope you get the help you need.
- kanobo 6y agoI'm not upset. Have you considered getting therapy for reading emotions? Let me know if you need someone to talk to, I'm happy to help.
- bluntfang 6y agoMaking wanton sarcastic comments towards someone who suggested you may need therapy for something you're struggling with after you've stalked their account for other comments reads upset to me.
- volume 6y agoEveryone has their own "entry point". Maybe you overdo motivation so you focus on discipline. Maybe you overdo discipline so you focus on motivation. Both are tools you use to apply to your own exact situation. Person A may vote for Team Motivation, because that works for them. Person B may vote for Team Discipline. That works for them. The more accurate your self-knowledge and self-awareness, the more effective you can apply the tools (discipline, motivation, etc).
