What’s the difference – or maybe the intersection – between self-control, self-discipline and self-belief?

And even if you don’t care so much about the semantics and definitions, how can YOU build more of each to become an upgraded version of yourself?

This is something I’ve been fascinated by for the bulk of my adult life, and today Cody McBroom and I are going to break all this down in detail.

Now if you’ve never heard of Cody before, he’s the owner of Tailored Coaching Method and the Choose Hard podcast.

But perhaps most importantly, he’s a guy that’s helped thousands of people lose weight – and if you’ve ever coached anyone on nutrition, you know that self-control, self-discipline and self-belief are all KEY factors in their success.

Quotable Quotes:

Choose hard, because the hard path leads to the good result

Self-discipline is doing what you don’t want to do repetitively to get the result you want

Awareness precedes change; knowing the challenge is coming helps you face it

Borrow belief from others; their success can inspire your own

The quicker you act, the shorter the feedback loop, the more it reaffirms your belief
