Most people think that humans fall into one of two categories: you're either self-disciplined or you're lazy. But that's not how humans operate. Even if you're extremely disciplined in one area of your life, another area of your life might be a mess. For example, you might be incredibly self-disciplined when it comes to working out, but you have terrible habits when it comes to managing your money. How can you grow in self-discipline in the areas that don't come naturally to you?
In today's episode, Donald Miller talks with Craig Groeschel, pastor of Life.Church and New-York Times best-selling author. Craig shares secrets about self-discipline from his newest book: "The Power to Change: Mastering the Habits That Matter Most". You'll learn how to change the way you think about self-discipline and discover the secret to forming habits that actually stick. Tune in now and learn how you can experience lasting change and sustain new habits for the long haul!
