Summary

If you’re like most people, you might think self discipline is the same as willpower. That it is restrictive, non-sponteneous, and boring.

You let momentary discomfort guide your decisions and then blame it on a lack of willpower.

My guest this week knows this isn’t true.

Tune in this week to hear from the master of self discipline herself, Monica Levi, about why you might be lacking self discipline and how to change that. Learn why self discipline is so closely linked to self love, the freedom that having self discipline brings, and how to master this skill yourself.

0:21.6	Hello my friends. And my friend. One of my best friends is here today.
0:26.8	Hi. Moni. Hi. Say hello. Oh hi. So happy to be here. Truly. I am so excited to have
0:33.3	Moni on the podcast to talk about self-discipline. Moni's going to tell you actually,
0:38.7	why don't you tell them a little bit about how smart you are. I don't even know where to go with this

0:55.1	coaching. Okay. Well, I'm going to try to keep it short because I can geek out on it. But I grew
1:00.3	up in Bulgaria during communism and came to the US at 17 for college. I went to law school in Chicago at
1:08.6	Northwestern and practiced law, big law for a number of years and didn't love it. It wasn't quite
1:15.3	sure what to do next. So the obvious choice was to get more education. So I got my MBA at Oxford and

1:28.2	inside law firms until I decided that I wanted to leave the law and New York City and kind of do

1:40.4	and landed in Austin, got a job at Google, complete change of pace and wasn't truly happy. Like,
1:47.8	there are other things at the time happening in my life, but I really wanted the independence of
1:51.7	having my own business and got certified through IPEC and I thought I wanted to do leadership coaching
