David Wolfe’s View On The Link Between Discipline And Our Health
One of the most important things about discipline is that you have to be able to get yourself to take action. That’s where it all starts. Ultimately, you brush your teeth every day, you know how to start and drive your car, you know how to put gas in the car - these are all disciplines, these are things you are doing every day. You know how to go out and buy food, you know how to use your credit card, these are disciplines, actions you are taking every day.
When it comes to discipline, it’s about that initial drive and striving to take the action.
David Wolfe believes that each one of us is endowed a very specific ability to “do” what we can do and to “not do” what we can’t do. We should focus on what is that we CAN do and we should avoid the things that we CAN’T do. Another way of saying this, is that we should focus on our strengths, and we should get off our weaknesses.
If you find that everything is OK when you are at home, but as soon as you go to work and you become susceptible to this and that and other kinds of things, then you need to start looking at this particular question… “How can I move away from that suggestive environment and get it home where I can actually get things done, and I’m not influenced and I can actually take action on those things that are good and healthy for me”.
This is working with our strengths and avoiding our weaknesses. Don’t waste your time spending years working on your weaknesses, concentrate on your strengths and give them all your attention.
Everybody, at some level suffers from a lack of discipline, maybe you go to bed sometimes without brushing your teeth - that’s an example of a lack of discipline. But David Wolfe knows what creates him is CONSISTENCY- he knows that if he misses a day, he’ll be right back on top of it. He knows that if he misses 2 days, he’ll be right back on top of it 2 days later, and if he misses a week, he’ll be right back on top of it a week later. The consistency is the key. As soon as it’s in your mind, then boom, you just take the action. Our consistent actions is what makes us, and creates us.
You DO have the discipline, you just don’t realise it. When you
focus oh your strengths, you have discipline. Another discilpline you have is locking the door to your house, you do it every day. A discipline is a little small action, but over a long period of time it has results.
This is where health is, by the way. We don’t have to take on a whole 5 hour program, plus this and that and the other thing, mixed in different combinations, counting calories, wondering what supplements are bad for us and what are not, or how to do the exact amount of exercise to burn such and such amount of calories etc., etc. etc.
That stuff is designed to confuse us and complexify something that is totally simple.
Health is simple, illness is complex. It’s much easier being preventative, doing just a few simple actions each and every day is all that’s needed. And what a difference that will have in the stress level as well! All you have to do are simple, healthy, consistent things every day.
We know that knowledge is power, but really it is only POTENTIAL power. It’s when you act that that knowledge becomes something physical.
We can educate ourselves in the field of health sciences today in a way that was never possible before, thanks to the internet. And when we ACT, then that’s as soon as it happens. The key is to “do it NOW!”. Otherwise, if you continue as you are you could feel the guilt, the blame and all those other negative emotions that come about from avoiding the inevitable, which is just getting it done immediately.
There’s a conflict somewhere out there in the general mindset where some people feel that they don’t want any part of discipline because they just want to “feel free” to do whatever they want. But in fact, discipline actually CREATES freedom. It’s through the disciplines that you practice every day, these very simple little things that you do every day, like a ritual, that creates freedom in your life.
Overtime, with these little disciplines, you can start stacking them on top of each other and what happens is that you get more done with lesseffort and in less time, which gives you more freedom! That’s what we all want. Discipline CREATES freedom.
Where our attention is going, our energy will soon be flowing. If we can keep ourselves directed, and on point, what happens is that pretty soon our actions will follow. That’s the key piece.
Every day we’re out in the world, obviously being met by distractions at work, at the local store, while driving our cars, and while watching TV. We need discipline to help us avoid these unhealthy distractions.
As you start putting these disciplines together, you create MOMENTUM. That’s the key word. The reason you brush your teeth every morning is because you have momentum - you have maybe 10,000 days behind you when you have brushed your teeth, and guess what’s going to happen today, you’re going to brush your teeth again!
That momentum has an affect where it forces us into action.
As you build that momentum, as you build those little steps, as you develop new disciplines that are in alignment with what your strengths are, you change your identity.
Just start by doing all the little things, the little actions in the
areas that you know you can do it, where your strengths lie, getting that momentum behind you, which will bring about that shift in your identity. This will help you realise “Yep, I have the discipline!”, “I am able” and “I can do it”.
These days we have to develop some level of discipline to wage the war against an AVALANCHE of toxins, dangerous junk foods, and addicting chemicals we face day in and day out.
