BoJack Horseman - "It gets easier" (Season 2 Ending)

It's funny though because you only need a short amount of discipline. Because after you use discipline for a while, it just gets way easier as it becomes a habit. Reminds me of this great Bojack Horseman clip - ▶ this video Years and years ago I started training seriously for a triathlon. Then a half ironman. Then a marathon, and after 2-3 years of having a few races a year on the calendar, I just started exercising every day. At the start, a lot of the days took discipline/motivation to get out the door. After a while, it was just a few days of discipline a week. Then a few days a month, then a few days a year. Now it's automatic, and something I actually look forward to rather than dread (obviously in a hard training cycle there are some sessions I dread, but it's almost like my brain turns off and my body subconsciously gets my stuff and gets me out the door). The longer you do something the easier it is.

Thought of something else worthwhile to add: for myself and many others, there may be some set of "abnormal" psychological factors that make it exceptionally difficult to trial yourself by fire. If you are that, I offer you this clip from one of the wisest television shows ever created, Bojack Horseman. ▶ this video

Like the Jogging Baboon from Bojack Horseman says: "Every day it gets a little easier… But you gotta do it every day — that’s the hard part. But it does get easier." ▶ this video
