Josh, what does motivation get wrong that discipline gets right?
1:10
That's a very, very good question with a lot of in-depth answers if you wanted to go that far.
1:16
And I think there's a lot of things that motivation gets wrong in the sense that it's plastered around so much on social media that there's all these motivational reels and motivational videos, and people think that that is gonna help them get towards the end goal.
1:31
But for me, I feel like it's very, very short-lived, and that's the problem, if you want to say.
1:38
The thing that motivation gets wrong is that it is short-lived, and discipline is something that it's when, when you have a goal, you do need to be disciplined to get towards it, or else it's just never gonna happen.
1:52
And I feel that motivation comes in short bursts, positive and negative.
1:56
So you can be nega- negatively motivated by something or positively, so it can push you towards your goal or pull you towards it.
