Discipline is more important than motivation.


Discipline is the force that keeps us on track, even when motivation fades. While motivation is a flame that ignites the desire to start, discipline is the structure that keeps us going, even on the toughest days. Motivation is temporary; it comes and goes with our mood and circumstances. It can be influenced by an inspiring video, a conversation, or a significant event. However, just as motivation can arise, it can also disappear, leaving us vulnerable to discouragement and procrastination.

This is where discipline shines. It doesn't rely on emotions or momentary inspiration; it is a conscious and continuous choice to move forward, regardless of the circumstances. Discipline builds habits, and habits build success. Those who are disciplined are able to achieve their goals because they commit to the process, even when motivation fails.

Having discipline means doing what needs to be done, even when we don’t feel like it. It’s getting up early to study, train, or work on a project, even when the desire is to stay in bed. It’s saying “no” to distractions and “yes” to consistent effort. Discipline is what turns dreams into reality, as it drives us to persevere until the goal is achieved.

Therefore, while motivation might be what gets us started, it’s discipline that keeps us on track until the end. Ultimately, those who rely solely on motivation may start with great enthusiasm, but it will be the disciplined who, step by step, achieve lasting success.

How to Disconnect from Technology to Stay a Little Human

  Why is it so important to disconnect from technology? Because, when we are behind a screen, we are giving up our freedom and allowing ourselves to be robotized. Essentially, we are making fools of ourselves. Industrialized countries claim we live in a democracy, but it’s all a lie. Governments and the media are controlled by internal organizations that dominate the entire system of a country, and we are heading toward the total control of a nation. There are various theories about the origin and impact of COVID-19. Some claim that the pandemic is just an ordinary epidemic, like many others that have occurred throughout human history, while others defend the idea that the virus may have been created in a laboratory, as part of a larger plan to control or even “robotize” the population. Although theories about the origin of the virus are widely debated, the scientific community has yet to find conclusive evidence to back up these speculations.
