Motivation is a lie.
Consistency only comes when you stop relying on feelings — and start relying on systems.
Here’s how I built consistency I can trust:
Identity first. I stopped trying to “get motivated.” I asked: What would a disciplined person do today? Design friction. I deleted distractions. No motivation needed when there’s nothing tempting me to stop. Daily 1% wins. No heroic efforts. Just one brick every day — no matter what. Pre-decide your actions. If you have to think about it, you’ll find a reason not to. Pre-decide. Execute. Done. Make your system unmissable. My routine is easier to do than to avoid. That’s by design.
Motivation fades. But systems keep showing up.
🧱 Discipline is a system — not a feeling.
