My Story of Transformation Through Self-Discipline

I used to have very little self-discipline.

For a while I somehow managed to barely survive life despite my lack of discipline.

But then things caught up to me.

Towards the end of grad school I entered a several year slump, where my life went into disarray.

Here’s what I did on a typical day:

  • Played video games for countless hours
  • Ate fast food nearly every meal
  • Watched endless YouTube videos (not to learn but just as a form of escapism)
  • Avoided any exercise
  • Surfed the internet for long periods of time
  • Resisted anything productive
  • Spent lots of time alone
  • Felt horrible about myself

But then, through years of self-discovery, practice, and learning, I gradually became more self-disciplined.

And as I started to develop self-discipline, my life turned COMPLETELY around.

Here is what I do on a typical day now:

  • Exercise
  • Work hard on my career
  • Meditate
  • Read
  • Journal
  • Spend time with my wife, who I am happily married to
  • Help my wife through health issues she has
  • Feel a strong sense of purpose and satisfaction with life
  • Work on The Disciplined Rebel website and YouTube channel to help others build self-discipline

Self-discipline has completely turned my life around, and has made me a much more successful, and more importantly, a whole lot happier.

Now I want to help you do the same!

Who The Disciplined Rebel is For

The Disciplined Rebel is for anyone who wants to become more self-disciplined.

Perhaps you want to me more self-disciplined in a specific area, like:

  • Exercise
  • Studying
  • Work
  • Diet
  • Productive hobbies
  • Relationships
  • Meditating
  • Journaling
  • Etc.

Or perhaps you are not disciplined in ANY aspect of your life and are looking for a total life transformation.

Don’t worry, I used to be in the same boat as you.
