Discipline

Your plan is great, but what you need to do, and what everyone needs to do, is to simply cut back on VICES, not bad actions.

We have vices for the purpose of escapism, to ignore the real world, and we get that habit from women.

Women have to ignore and hide from the world because they are emotional and can't actually handle the real world. It's difficult for them. But men, we can handle whatever the world throws at us, because our brain allows us to accept things for how they are.

It's because we see things physically and women see things for how they would want it to look like.

So for us guys, we need to avoid the woman shit and stop thinking we should depend on stuff like pot or beer or games or porn. Instead, we should understand why we spend so much time with it.

I had my fair share of addictions. I'm still a little addicted to video games, but I realized I played them for the fact I hated where my life was heading. I changed my life plans, got into starting my own business, got into investing, and now my game playing time went from 8 hours a day to maybe 1 hour a week.

If we don't think about the cause of our vice, we will only replace it with another.

I got my discipline in Parris Island in June-August, 1998. Nothing and nobody taught you discipline like a 3rd Bn. Drill Instructor.

Right now I'm really focused on advancing my career in IT, and finishing the basement of my home to make it a mini-little brewhouse. I brew my own beer and I dont have any glasses, my buddies gotta bring their own mugs with a handle on them. They show up, we drink, and then their mug gets hung on the ceiling behind the bar for the next time they come in for a drink. Now THAT'S german style drinking right there.

I have regular card games with my coworkers and we drink a bit too much and eat too much, and make sure the air is thick with pipe and cigar smoke. No women allowed. Not big money, 50 cent - $1 limit poker usually. And none mention it at work. It's my own beer-fueles, card playing fight club. I love it.

That and learning fingerpicking guitar. I can almost play the blues and I'm pretty happy about that. Good times all around. Life is good.

My list includes consistently taking several pills critical to stabilizing my condition, walking 5 miles min daily, learning to say no, and reaching the finish line for projects -- rather than allowing dust to settle.

Without going into detail, an incident years ago caused memory impairment, along with aphasia. As a man, owning up to these defects should've came naturally. Instead, I withdrew from others, permitting shame and the dark to leave me worse for wear. Today I can finally accept that my former life as a law student is no more.

Just be consistent on whatever it is you want to do. You can motivate yourself all you want but there will be distractions and excuses that'll hinder you from your goal.

On the contrary, I'd say discipline can never come from within; it has to be taught.

When a dog's belly is full and it feels safe, does it take up night classes in accounting at the local college? Never. It sleeps until there's a problem. People aren't much different.
