Discipline, at its core, is the consistent application of executive power to create desired outcomes. It is a solution to many _many_ of life's problems, and I encourage everyone to cultivate it and exercise it.
However.. for some people that's not useful advice. A surprising fraction of us (13% and trending up) have some form of ADHD, often including "executive dysfunction", which essentially makes this type of suggestion _hot garbage_.
There's nothing wrong with a post like this, it proposes a solution that will probably be useful to a fair majority of people, and is worth exploring. But if you find this approach to be ineffective and counter-productive, there's not necessarily something wrong with you. Or, depending on how you think of it, there _is_, but it's not your fault, and it's wrong with a lot of other people too.
