Repisode 951. Happiness Takes Discipline.

Send us a text

Everyone says they just want to be happy—but that mindset might be the biggest head fake of them all.

In this episode, I unpack the hard truth: being happy is fleeting, but choosing happiness is forever.

Happiness isn’t a mood. It’s a direction. And the path to it? That takes discipline—a personal code of behavior that keeps you moving, especially when your emotions don’t.

We’ll explore:

• Why chasing happiness keeps you stuck
• How to define happiness using the Five F’s
• The difference between emotional highs and directional fulfillment
• Why discipline isn’t about punishment—it’s about alignment
• How to stay the course when life throws adversity, uncertainty, and complacency your way

If you’re tired of relying on motivation and ready to build a life that actually means something—this one’s for you.
