The post you linked reads like they're trying to sell me something. I find it hard to believe someone is truly wise when they begin their argument with "the first, more popular and devastatingly wrong option is..." That style of writing strikes me as being both condescending and manipulative. "Hey reader, you aren't a putz are you? No, you're a free thinker on the hunt for wisdom! So you'd agree that..." Guess I shouldn't expect too much from a site with that tagline, though. As for the argument about disclipline... That sounds appealing, but what is "discipline"? They say: > How do you cultivate discipline? By building habits – starting as small as you can manage, even microscopic, and gathering momentum, reinvesting it in progressively bigger changes to your routine, and building a positive feedback loop. OK so discipline is built out of habits, which are built out of small actions that gradually scale up. All well and good, but it feels like we're back to the original problem of motivation. That is, to cultivate discipline you must be sufficiently motivated. Seems circular.
