Leadership Lesson: Discipline = Freedom
Yesterday here in the States, we observed Memorial Day.
It’s a day that we observe in honor of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
After all, freedom isn’t free.
Since the dawn of time, humans have tried to oppress others in the name of survival and power.
This is the nature of the world.
And to be a strong leader of humans.
You need to be a student of human nature.
As humans, we default to the path of least resistance when given the opportunity.
We procrastinate which is a recipe for oppression.
This is part of our nature.
Instead, realize that discipline creates freedom.
Innately I knew this to be true at a young age.
But a mentor from afar by the name of Jocko Willink reinforced this in teaching.
This teaching is what I want to pass on to you today.
Well, in reality, you already know this to be true.
What I’ve learned about human nature, is most times we need to be reminded more than we need to be taught.
So in honor of Memorial Day and those fallen to protect our freedom.
I wanted to provide you with this leadership reminder.
Discipline = Freedom.
