Thoroughly Overthinking It

F*ck Motivation, Cultivate Discipline

Shawn Carter Season 1 Episode 4

This week we're diving into a quick chat about motivation - or rather, why you should ditch the idea of waiting for motivation and focus on building discipline instead.

I'll share some personal insights and strategies that have really helped me stay on track, even when I'm just not feeling it. Things like the 5-minute rule to get started, setting limits on learning time so you actually apply what you're studying, and the idea of "eating the frog" - tackling the hardest task first to get it out of the way.

The principles shared this episode are ones I've really come to rely on, whether I'm working on a big career goal or a creative side project. Hopefully you can take away a tip or two to help you stay motivated and disciplined, even on your toughest days.
