004. The Secret to Self-Discipline: Master Your Future

Loading player...
How many times have you promised yourself you’d start — the workout, the new habit, the dream goal — and then talked yourself out of it?

In this episode, we explore what self-discipline really means — not punishment or pressure, but self-respect in action. You’ll learn how discipline becomes an act of self-love and the foundation for building a life by design.

Join Stuart as he shares five practical steps to help you start, stay consistent, and follow through — even when motivation fades.
These tools will help you shift from knowing what to do… to actually doing it.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll discover:

Why we struggle to start (and how to change it)
How to finish what you begin and build trust with yourself
The secret to planning ahead and removing resistance
How to beat procrastination and perfectionism
Simple ways to reward yourself and keep going

Discipline isn’t about being perfect — it’s about progress.
Each small, consistent action is a vote for the person you’re becoming.
