“Discipline is doing what you hate to do, but nonetheless doing it like you love it.” — Mike Tyson
「只有在生活中紀律嚴明的人才是自由的。如果缺乏紀律,只會成為情緒和激情的奴隸。」(Only the disciplined ones in life are free. If you are undisciplined, you are a slave to your moods and your passions.) — Eliud Kipchoge
“A vital part of the happiness formula is self-discipline. Whoever conquers himself knows deep happiness that fills the heart with joy.” — Norman Vincent Peale
康德(Immanuel Kant):自律即自由
“Autonomie des Willens ist die Eigenschaft des Willens, sich selbst ein Gesetz zu sein.” — Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten, BA 89
「意志的自律,就是意志為自己立法的能力。」
“Freiheit ist die Eigenschaft, eine Ursache unabhängig von fremden, bestimmenden Ursachen zu sein.” — Kritik der praktischen Vernunft
「自由,就是作為一個原因而不受其他外在決定性原因所支配的性質。」
“Ein Will ist nur dann frei, wenn er autonom ist.”
「意志唯有在自律時才是自由的。」
- 真正的道德行為不是因外在獎賞或懲罰,而是出於內在的理性命令(定言命令)。
- 對康德而言,自由 = 自主地依理性立法(自律)行動,而非被外在欲望或他人驅動。
- 一個人只有在自律時,才擁有道德上的自由。
Discipline is about what you do on the days when you feel like crap.
Discipline is the highest form of self-love. It’s choosing short-term pain over long-term gain. Its loving yourself enough to not trade what you want most for what you want now.
Discipline is like being a wise parent to your inner child. The more disciplined you are, the more freedom your inner child has to explore and thrive.
「自律」只是外在的表面結果,「自願」才是內在真正的驅動力。
Discipline now, freedom later. Discipline equals freedom.
Screw motivation, what you need is discipline.
Excellence translates across disciplines.
Winners are not people who never fail, but people who never quit. Remember: “If you quit now, you will soon be back to where you started. And when you started, you will be desperately wishing to be where you are right now.”
世界上最難的管理,是自我管理;世界上最難的領導,是領導自己。
The One-second Decision By David Goggins
When you are doing something hard in life, you are making a second by second decision to keep going. If you lose one of those seconds, you’ve lost. Each second is an opportunity to keep going or to quit.
