But because we are bombarded with all kinds of information that is not really important for us in terms of becoming successful, we often forget the important things.

And this is one of them.

Let's say on a daily, on a weekly basis.

I do 300 push-ups and 300 squats every morning.

And in addition to that, I go to the gym normally five, six times a week, spending between one and two hours every day.

So push-ups and squats are still a big part of your routine.

Yes, this is how I start my day.

I'm not sure they do a lot in terms of changing your body, but they're definitely a good way to practice self-discipline.

Because you don't want to do these push-ups in the morning most of the days.

Squats are particularly boring.

They're not that hard.

They're just boring.

But you overcome it.

And then it's much easier to start doing other things

related to your work, for example.

When I can, I also take a nice bath, because it's another exercise of self-discipline.

I think the main muscle you can exercise is this muscle, the muscle of self-discipline.

Not your biceps or your pecs or anything else.

Because if you get to train that one, everything else...

It just comes by itself.
