👉 Apple Podcast: The Disciplined Life

In this episode, I explore the power of discipline, faith, and habits in shaping the life I want to lead. Inspired by Jim Rohn’s wisdom, “Let others lead small lives, but not you,” and James Clear’s concept of habits as votes for the person you wish to become, I share my personal journey of building resilience, consistency, and self-mastery.

From my first pregnancy and postpartum running challenges, to registering for a 16 km run nine months later, I illustrate that discipline is built not in a single event but through daily, intentional choices. I also dive into the importance of valuing time, managing your day, and refusing to let circumstances dictate your future.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Discipline is choosing the higher path, even when it’s hard,

• Small, consistent actions compound to create long-term transformation,

• Time is more valuable than money, run your day or the day runs you,

• Faith can strengthen discipline when willpower alone isn’t enough,

• Your habits are votes for the person you are becoming.

Quotes from this episode:

• “Let others lead small lives, but not you,” – Jim Rohn

• “Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become,” – James Clear, Atomic Habits
