I think I might get it. I’ve given myself discipline challenges, but probably at a level too hard, so I end up quitting. What I’m going to do now is try to get set the challenge up so that my emotions feel just beyond the edge of comfort, but not so much that I’m angry and saying, “I hate this, I don’t want to do this…”

If I understand it, Pavlina’s not saying be a masochist, he’s saying find a way to challenge yourself to get more comfortable with doing the things that are necessary.

I have some of the same fears that Crimson has, although I’d state mine slightly differently.

What if I had incredible discipline, worked really hard, but didn’t like it?

I like the results, but not the processs. If i were to give myself over completely to Self-Discipline I’d never like the process, would I?

Lying in bed late feels good. Having a clean house feels good, but cleaning the house doesn’t feel good.

So something has to happen to change the process of discipline, or it never pays off, does it? Otherwise, you’re always working on something that’s unfinished and not enjoying any of it.

I’ll re-read the chapter on hard work in case I misunderstood.
