What Six Months of ConsistentTraining Taught Me About Discipline

@ntlam

I used to think discipline was about motivation. It isn't.

Systems beat willpower

Showing up on the bad days — tired, busy, unmotivated — is the entire game. The good days take care of themselves.

Discipline is just a habit that's been repeated enough times to stop needing motivation.

What carried over to work

The same consistency that got me through a training block is what gets a hard feature shipped without burning out.
