"Discipline is different. Discipline is the bit where you do the thing whether you feel like it or not. Whether the sun is shining. Whether you slept well. Whether your inbox is on fire. In No Excuses! The Power of Self-Discipline, Brian Tracy frames discipline as doing what needs doing, when it needs doing - whether you feel like it or not."
For years, motivation was treated as the same as discipline. Early in adulthood, excitement on Monday led to lists, plans, and promises to start projects, work out, or read more. By midweek, motivation disappeared and the plans collapsed. Blame shifted to the plan, the week, the job, or even the weather, while the real issue was relying on feelings to drive hard work. Motivation is described as a feeling that comes and goes. Discipline is described as doing the required task when it is required, regardless of whether you feel like it, whether conditions are good, or whether life is stressful. The key change is starting without waiting to feel ready.
