MOTIVATION IS NOT REQUIRED

Everybody waits to feel ready. Ready never comes. What comes is Tuesday morning, a heavy bag, and a decision. Motivation is weather — it changes without asking you. Discipline is climate. It is what you can rely on when the weather turns. You do not need to feel like training today. You need to put your shoes on. The feeling follows the action far more often than the action follows the feeling. Win the next decision. That is the whole method.
