Motivation is for children, discipline is for men.

I am gonna be very honest as usual here and I was pretty angry when I recorded my last videos but I calmed down and it was good that I calmed down otherwise this post would have been very short.

You have to post however you feel, when you are angry, frustrated, sad, depressed, anxious, or insert whatever annoying feeling here.

You are always motivated when you start something new but as you guys know that awesome feeling is quickly lost.

Grandmasters have overcome their limits, they have pushed to the edge and fell down breaking their legs.

Nobody heard them, nobody saw them, they have picked up worms from the ground with their broken jaws, drinking their own fucking piss and eating their shit to survive.

Their mind was telling them to kill themselves, but they could not do that as they could barely move.

They pushed to the edge and fell down on purpose, like Odin when he attached himself to the world tree Yggdrasil with his spear Gugnir.

He was hungry and thirsty all the time feeling immense pain when he fell down screaming from the pain he saw the runes and grabbed them.

Just like the grandmasters and Odin we have to push ourselves to the absolute edge to get the knowledge and wisdom to become the best in what we do.

No excuses, embrace the pain, train hard and sacrifice to become someone better than you were before.

You are the epitome of the childish word "YOLO" but instead of doing drugs and wasting your time you use every damn fucking hour available to you to make the most of your life impressing the gods and everyone else seeing what you are doing.

And the longer you do this, the more you will reap, you will not have to introduce yourself anymore.

And at this point that doesn't matter to you anymore because you will see that everyone around you is wasting their lives.

The only ones you want to impress are yourself, the gods and the grandmasters.

You are now hanging on the world tree Yggdrasil.

I love being angry Philip! It motivates me to push myself even further beyond ! have you tried to work out angry? I hit most of my PRs while i was mad angry, all that adrenaline all that testosterone all that blood rushing through my body, and every time I even thought about quitting i would think to myself : " if you quit now you will just prove that everyone else was right, and that you were wrong, you are not a coward, you are not a quitter you will do this for yourself"
Damn, if i get the rage really boiling up inside me i can do everything! I started reading because of rage and anger, i started taking gym much more seriously because i was angry, i studied college stuff for hours because i was angry, i guess i'm like a sith lord xD i use my anger in my favor and not against me. This also provides me with another side benefit, since i discovered how much better i get while i'm angry i'm not afraid of anything, because i know that if i fail i'll get angry and i'll surpass myself.
But yes, discipline is also part of all of it

I am searching for that rage, sometimes it shows itself then again it vanishes... There was a time when I used to be angry a lot, I have mellowed down over the years, now I am not as angry as I used to be. That's why I search for that rage, damn I should write a post on this. Mellowing down may not always be good for you.

Our society tends to tell you that rage and anger are bad, that eats many men up from the inside out.

You have that anger, you just need to embrace it more as your own, anger is human, to repress it is inhuman and a crime against humanity.

That's a different take on anger, calling it a crime gainst humanity. Interesting.

have you tried to work out angry?

A song will be a good answer to that.

You are right... i totally forgot who i was talking too xD ahahah

Bro there's nothing wrong with expressing your anger. Just don't kill anyone. I know you won't of course.

I have been there. I've had days like that where I was so upset at someone or something that I was ready to blow my lid off. I just channeled all that emotion and energy into my work. IT helps and I'm glad you decided to use your post to get it out.

People who are not doing the work themselves will usually have something to say to those that are. There are much better days ahead brother. I'm here as usual if you need anything.

Thank you Earl.
I know you will be there with good words and deed.
I appreciate your words, as always.

Raw discipline. That's what this is ladies and gentlemen. Days like these define you. I can sense the enormous amounts of anger but yet here you are writing 2 posts per day. Just for that these people can shut their mouths because they are incapable of achieving something similar. As you've said in previous videos: it doesn't matter how you feel. If you're feeling ill, angry, sad or exhausted. As long as you can breathe there's potential to do great things. So seize the fucking opportunity.

I do not entirely agree with your opinion on motivation though. I also feel like discipline is a lot more powerful than motivation but I think in order to develop rock solid discipline you first need to find the motivation to do so.

I agree with everything you wrote.

🤣😂😡 😡 😡

Fucking Spammers! Hahaha

Agree with that!

Man, whatever I write, it's always those same words

Nice post. Thanks for sharing

Makes me want to read my hairs

One more Mute to the mute list

Things will happen in your life when you can't post a day. Fuck what people expect from you, or what you said. Discipline is more important long term than motivation, you are right, but motivation is also important, without doing what you love you will make yourself ill longterm. It has to go hand in hand. There is no MUST, even when you said you do it every day. And in general its better to post good content than posting just to post. Anyways I like you showing every facet of your emotions, showing that you are human (although you drink off a horn like Odin 😁).
Also just stand above those haters, there will be more like this over time.
If you joined the right time, it's an accomplishment and not luck, because you were up to date and informed.
If someone big supports you, than he did because of your work. it's an accomplishment and not luck.
If it's that easy those jerks shall do it. But they don't they try and fail, because it's not easy.
Fucking stand above those idiots.
Just my opinion.

Great comment Pyro.
Thank you for telling us your unfiltered opinion, I really appreciate such comments.

I liked the post title the instance I saw it. But I don't completely agree to it. It's more of the way how you look at it. For me, it's the motivation to be at a different place a year from now that pushes me to be disciplined. It obviously works differently for different people.

And I have no problem with that. You don't need to walk on eggshells on my posts.
I appreciate honesty as it helps me to understand the person that talks to me better and it helps me to improve myself.

I also very much appreciate your honesty of opinion and clarity of thought. Makes me come back to your blog and read about your recent most thoughts.

Glad to hear that.

I'm not sure about being able to survive by eating shit (unless you're a rabbit, at night and the shit's WHITE) but a great post, otherwise.

Discipline is everything. Discipline puts your fist through walls. Harness its powers.

Thank you Zool.

Discipline puts your fist through walls.

Absolutely agree with that, outstanding achievements are always a result of discipline.

Respect to everyone that improves his life every day.
