Ask HN: How to Build Discipline?
4 by Gary_TheSnail_ | 4 comments on Hacker News.
Hello again - I made a similar post not too long ago about taking car of yourself and got some good answers and advice, but I came up with another question! I am finishing my bachelors in CS right now - about 6 months left. My schedule does not look heavy for my last couple quarters, but I do not like the schedule I have to follow in school. I don't like being given somewhat boring assignments that don't leave room for creativity. I want to make something cool and adds value to the world. However, I lack the discipline to do anything long term. I don't hit the gym consistently for a long enough time to see good results. I have always wanted to get on a solid daily routine. My energy levels are low during the day and the past 2 weeks have not been very productive. Online/remote learning has shortened my attention span significantly. I want to build something (building myself physcially, mentally, financially, building products and software) but I can't stick to it long enough to make something valuable even though I enjoy it. I would appreciate any resources or advice while I sort through this. I am not being too hard on myself - I am okay. I continually work on myself but discipline has by far been my biggest challenge for quite a few years.
