The Art Of Self-Discipline - Begin at the End


MIND OPTIMIZATION

​THE ART OF SELF-DISCIPLINE

Sponsored by the "Third Act " Optimizers

In the last Mind Optimization Course, I wrote about how, in the 1980s, I was a motivational speaker but not a very good one.

I explained that the best part of my three-year motivational speaker tour was that I got to hang out with the best in the motivational business, New York Times bestsellers, to this day.

I listened and learned and discovered that they were all teaching the same thing. The degree of our attendees' success was directly associated with their self-discipline.

EULOGY HAVES

I have noticed that what makes some of my patients/clients more self-disciplined and, therefore, more successful is that they have taken the time to know what will make them feel satisfied with their lives while they lay on their deathbeds.

I call these goals Eulogy Haves. I have also discovered they needed a Eulogy Have for each of the Four Strands of Life.

  1. Me
  2. Us
  3. Then
  4. Him

These Four Eulogy Haves are your purposes in life. In the last step, I wrote about knowing your purpose (your why); your four eulogy haves are your four whys of life.

"If you don't know where you're going, you'll have difficulty getting there.

To be disciplined, it's essential to be clear on where you want to be at the end of life—whether in health, relationships, business, or mentoring.

Answer these questions:

When it comes to my Me Strand, what will make me satisfied on my deathbed when it comes to my health?

  • e.g., To Have danced at my grandchildren's weddings

Regarding my Us Strand, what will satisfy me on my deathbed regarding my closest relationships?

  • e.g., To Have cuddled with my spouse with love daily.

Regarding my Them Strand, what will satisfy me on my deathbed regarding my career?

  • e.g., To Have loved my job to the very end.

Regarding my Him Strand, what will satisfy me on my deathbed regarding God?

  • e.g., To Have been an example of how to live life to the point I was a mentor to those who watched.

"If you want to succeed at anything, know your Four Eulogy Haves."

If you want me to coach you on optimizing your hormones, weight, health, and mind, I can do all four simultaneously; all you have to do is ask.

Oh, and it's FREE!

Hi! I'm Doc Mac.

I have practiced hormone, weight, health, and mind optimization for over forty-five years. I retired 9 years ago; at least, that is what I thought. When I retired, my wife and I owned and operated seven medical clinics specializing in hormone and weight optimization. As we enter our pauses (menopause and andropause), our hormones become disrupted, causing us to gain weight, suffer from the inability to lose the extra weight, sleeping disorders, hormonally induced anxiety and depression, loss of interest in being intimate, and lose our motivation to be social. Our internal chemistry, our hormones, governs how we feel, look, live, and think.
