I just remember that the only bad work is one that didn't happen.
If I really can't be arsed then I drink some coffee and drag my ass down to the gym, and just slug my way through it. Sometimes I'll snap out of it once I get warmed up and work hard, othertimes it'll be a pretty shitty work out.
But anything is better than nothing, and we can't go 100% all the time or we'll burn ourselves out. We gotta enjoy working out.
This may not be the best motivation method, but it's what worked for me. I worked a shit job pulling 12+ hour shifts a day, every day, seven days a week, for almost a year. Work was so stressful that after work no one wanted to do anything but eat and get drunk, maybe fuck a sloot before heading back to the dungeon. Between the stress and the shit eating the team started to gain weight.
But not me. About 10 minutes before the end of my shift I would mix a scoop of c4 into my water and chug the shit. No options, no thinking about it, no bartering or whining about how tired I was. If you don't know, you WILL NOT sleep on c4. So my only option was to gym.
And one day, near the end of the year and in the midst of a curl pr I realized I had forgotten my scoop. My gym appointment had become a habit.
Almost die and come back from it. You can thank me later anon.
Discipline to be a normie no thank you. You can keep your normal lies and gasp your final breath while realizing omg is that where I'm going when I die.
Your actions have consequences so please keep that in mind when working on your discipline

I remember back when I was trying to gain weight.
It was 6:30 a.m. and I had just finished staying up all night to play vidya and study. Because of my ADD medicine I didn't feel hungry despite being 1000 calories below my goal for the day. I go to the refrigerator and find the proverbial fruits of my labor. The only thing available was rotten hamburger meat.
I set the charcoals and began grilling outside on that cold morning.
After I finished I went inside to grab the bread that I didn't have and just ate the garbage out of a bowl.
Every bite was an assault on my nose and tongue. I rebelled against my instincts. I ate at least 6 whole rotten patties. It was foul and towards the end I wanted to wretch, but I fought even that instinct.
I didn't end up puking or shitting myself-and I met my caloric goal that day while getting a lot more serious about meal prep. You bet I never missed buying groceries again.
Circumstances will rarely be ideal.
You'll have amazing strokes of luck and terrible strokes of luck. In the end, it all washes and leaves you average if you just ride the wave.
The really successful people do something unique. They don't let their environment hinder them.
Southwestern Airlines was the most profitable publicly traded company in the world while being in one of the most regulated and difficult industries for nearly 3 decades -full of failures, disruptive technologies, recessions, and a myriad of problems.
Instead of making excuses about industry problems they put their noses down and went to work.
You gotta have stupid, unreasonable, and unbudging discipline to an ideal.
If you want a ball to bounce back at you quickly you have to throw it twice as hard at the wall for it to bounce back.

So many people see discipline as something so big and powerful and takes years to develop.
To me, discipline is doing it without thinking. As if I weren't the one making choices in my head. As if a greater being had decided for me. I just put the clothes on, shoes, pack my bag and get my fatass to the gym. That simple.

unless you're severely mentally and/or physically disabled, whatever it is you're trying to do, you have no reason why you can't achieve it, period.
