How does one develop discipline? I have accepted that I cannot be perfect and that I will slip up but I want to learn to be more disciplined and master myself. At least as much as I am able to do so
tldr>build a habit first by doing tiny, easy things>optimize the habit later>over time, life conquered

if u really want it, then lock in
>>31532910Decide what you want. Find a path to it with incremental steps. Develop a schedule you can repeat behaviours on. Develop consistency. Once you are consistent for a good moment, increase efforts.
>>31532910Accept that to achieve your goals you might have to give up things you enjoy but are preventing you from advancing
every action comes from one of these 5 sources in your brain:>amygdala: this one is responsible for the fear response, so you you might do or not do something bc you are afraid of it.>dopaminergic system:"it will be good or feel good for me now, so let's do it">serotoninergic system:"it will be good or feel good for me in the future, so let's do it">endo-cannabanoid systemhabitual behaviors originate from here>frontal lobes/prefrontal cortex: executive function, aka your willpowerThe thing is whenever you use your willpower, eg.:forcing yourself to do something, you actually get tired, and once you are tired you'll just revert to doing the bad/easy things you were doing up till now. You need to outsource as many "good+healthy behaviours" to your habits as you can. >31532915So as this anon said: >build a habit first by doing tiny, easy thingsthis shouldn't pressure your willpower too much, or else you'll revert>optimize the habit laterthis becomes easy, once you have the habitAnd watch Andrew Huberman and HealthyGamerGG
