What’s the difference – or maybe the intersection – between self-control, self-discipline and self-belief?
And even if you don’t care so much about the semantics and definitions, how can YOU build more of each to become an upgraded version of yourself?
This is something I’ve been fascinated by for the bulk of my adult life, and today Cody McBroom and I are going to break all this down in detail.
Now if you’ve never heard of Cody before, he’s the owner of Tailored Coaching Method and the Choose Hard podcast.
But perhaps most importantly, he’s a guy that’s helped thousands of people lose weight – and if you’ve ever coached anyone on nutrition, you know that self-control, self-discipline and self-belief are all KEY factors in their success.
Quotable Quotes:
Choose hard, because the hard path leads to the good result
Self-discipline is doing what you don’t want to do repetitively to get the result you want
Awareness precedes change; knowing the challenge is coming helps you face it
Borrow belief from others; their success can inspire your own
The quicker you act, the shorter the feedback loop, the more it reaffirms your belief
This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:
Why Cody was drawn to learning more about self-control, self-discipline, self-belief and self-respect
The power of “Choosing Hard” versus taking the easy way out
How your environment and the people around you positively (or negatively) impact your self-control
The power of “If-Then” Frameworks to make decision-making less stressful and more automatic
Struggling with self-confidence? Why you should “borrow belief” from others to drive your journey
The power of positive feedback loops, and how they can fuel your self-belief and performance
How to overcome self-doubt – once and for all
The 10,000 Hour Rule: Is it really as easy as logging 10k hours to become an expert?
