#35 Choose Your Hard Part 1 - A Philosophical Guide to Getting Sh*t Done
2026-03-13
Willpower is a lie. Your brain is even wired to betray your future self. So how do you actually change?
Grant and Kayla dive into the philosophy and science behind lasting behaviour change, from Pascal's 17th-century logic (applied to your metabolism) to the marshmallow experience. You'll discover why discipline isn't about toughing it out and learn the Ulysses Pact strategy, why small "harmless" choices can compound over time into metabolic disaster
Bottom line: Life's hard either way. Choose discipline's pain over regret's pain. Master the setup, not the struggle.
